on Gwyneth Paltrow....Most Boring Woman on Earth, or Role Model?

April 4th 2007 13:47
I'm with Gywneth Paltrow on this one. Not about women. Just complete drunkeness in general. I'm not a huge fan of it, and I don't drink myself, but I can get why other people would like to drink. Some drinks is fine. Even tipsy verging on middling drunkeness is fine. But really, how do you know you've had a good time if you can't even remember it? (I've come across more than my fair share of people who've talked enthusiastically about how they had 'a great time that weekend - they got so plastered they can't remember any of it'.

The only people I like drunk are a certain few of my friends, who become extremely cute & giggly, and who inevitably want to go back home to sleep. The people I like less drunk are other friends who suggest leaving even more inebriated friends who have passed out, on random beaches in Thailand at the height of the Full Moon Party.

Just my two cents.

on And they wonder why women have body issues????

I totally understand that. I've never had wieght problems, because I have a good metabolism, but I've had friends with wonderfully curvy figures who've moaned about being fat and gone on ridiculously extreme diets. One cut her food intake in half and changed to completely healthy foods from fried foods. Though she lost weight, I got really worried for her, because her period stopped for half a year. Really, when you've put your body through so much change/stress that your periods stopped - that's when it's time to forget about the dieting and maybe think about exercise as a healthy way to lose weight, or just learn to love your curves.

I've told myself I'll never freak too much about weight. I eat what I want, but I don't go nuts with McDonald's and I go to the gym now (I have no strength).

I have another friend who's about half-a-foot shorter than me, but weighs nearly the same, and she looks fabulously curvy (all the guys love her).

It's all about learning to appreciate your body. In spite of the fact that I'm not built like a sumo wrestler, when I was younger I'd still feel the pressure to become skinnier (luckily, I appreciate food too much to even think about dieting). Now, I'm perfectly fine with a small ridge of fat on my belly, and the fact that -yes Janice, some people have actual fat - I have fat on my butt. There's nothing wrong with it. We're female. Without fat, we'd have no boobs and very little butt.

Moral: Yay curves!

Okay, rant/pseudo-social commentary thing ended

*p.s. we shouldn't however, knock females who are genuinely genetically skinny. I do have friends who can't put on weight even though they want too, and who are always complaining about wanting more boobs or butt.
