Sign in here if you're a black woman that ISN'T fat, please?

why is it that most of the black women i see are obese? now, before you say it i'm gonna say it for ya; you're going to say that there are fat chicks in every race-true! but it seems like black women are fat MOST of the time, and that the thin ones are the exception. c'mon damnit, can't i see some black girls without a big belly? is it too much to ask for?

I too have noticed an abnormal amount of obesity in black women--what's up with that?

Reply:i am black, hawaiian and white [italian to be specific] and i am NOT fat. i am actually a bit underweight [i know, i know, i'm trying to gain but i have pointe AND figure skating i can't gain too much!!!] a lot of them are, but did you know that most of the US obese population is white? its not by much though. i have barely seen an overweight asian. my mom says its because they have faster metabolisms and they eat better than americans. i am not sure if thats true but whatever. i want 2 live in australia anyways, where you barely see fat people! better than america, i'll say.
Reply:Dude thats messed up. Besides I live in Texas and where I live there aren't that many black perople but when I drive to Austin or Houston or some place like that, I see a lot of black women like the ones you see in rap videos. Thin, athletic, "thick" women with some curves white girls could only dream of. I think that the obesity problem has to do with the black culture in general. The same thing can be said for hispanics. People tend to go along wiht whats going on around them so if most of the people around you are fat, then youll think its ok to be fat too. I lived in the Hamptons for a few years and over there its not OK to be fat so obesity wasn't as common as it is in south texas, where i live.

Reply:What does it matter to you if they are? I'm 5'6.5 and 133 pounds. I am meduim framed, but look very skinny to people because I have an hourglass figure. I have no belly. People tell me I'm gorgeous, but I promise you it doesn't get to my head. Honestly, I think it's because Black men have told Black women that it is attractive to be big. I don't think so. I think it's disgusting when all that cholesterol and fat builds up inside you. I don't mind if a woman is on the thick side, but eats healthy and stays active. But, if she never exercises and eats whatever, I think it's gross because it will all build up.
Reply:Most black women I've seen anywhere in the country have large behinds
Reply:I think you should change your name. Youre not nice at all. Fat Chicks, slim chicks, whats the problem. I am sure youre not perfect and you would hate to be categorised because of your imperfections. At least fat people can lose weight. When youre ugly, you are just ugly and there aint notin you can do about it....lol
