Really, Gweedo…. the only reason you think that is that most woman lie about their weight.
And why do we do that? Because guys have heard the lies all their lives… especially the ones told about movie stars and models, and their weights.They compare us to those phony numbers, and make judgmental remarks like you just did!In fact, if Betty were real, say, 5’6", and looked a teeny bit chunky like she does, she might weigh 165…Which for the mother of a teenager, who works all day in an office, but works out, and is healthy and happy, is just fine, in my book.
I am 5’ 3" and a size 4. My weight? 138-142. And no, I do not look like a female Arnold Schwarzenegger. I also don’t have stick thin limbs. I am strong, with plenty of nice curves, and did I mention? A size 4!It’s all in body composition, dude. That’s why I don’t dig the BMI charts. Told the Dr. To chuck ‘em, the more so since I once starved myself, thinking I was fat. I was a size 3, high school, and 127. I started passing out at 123. Good grief! Mom thought 115 was fat!We women do PLENTY of harm to ourselves, please don’t help us do that! And ladies? Careful what you say around your kids please, esp daughters? Mom obsessed about her weight, but her body was different from mine. I almost killed myself, trying to fit an ideal I was never built for.Ok! Off my soapbox now!;-)Blessed Be
In my younger days people would say to me: “You’d be pretty if——” followed by a long list of “improvements”. I am way past fictional “Betty’s” weight and now all my motorcycles handle better for it. I also work along side men 20 and 30 years younger than me and I walk in and out of my trails horsing equipment right with them. You should know the Body Mass Index is not a scientific measure of anything; in fact much of medicine uses arbitrary, subjective standards all while sounding authoritative.
Shut up. One’s weight has nothing to do with what kind of person they are. Obviously you, no matter what you weigh, are an idiot to judge someone on based on weight. Grow up!
People like you are the reason that so many women are sick with eating disorders. As someone who has personally struggled with such a thing, I think that you should be ASHAMED.

Actually no, depending on her height that is correct for someone who lives in the real world.
