Yall men are actually disgusting human beings the way you treat us. You don’t understand how hard it is being a girl in the first place not saying it’s not hard to be a guy but we have more struggles than you think and most of those struggles come from people like you. It’s not all about eat less move more and it’s not all about height. It’s about medical conditions and genes and family history. Some things aren’t our fault
It doesn’t matter if people carry weight differently or former fat girls fixed themselves. It’s all about respect. Why does it matter how much we weigh in general? Personality should be what matters. I’m a thicker girl and I’ve been struggling because i have pcos. It’s almost impossible to lose weight. being asked my weight makes me embarrassed because it shouldn’t matter and it’s something that I can’t fully fix even though I want to.
bc it doesn’t matter. unless you can see a person and how they carry weight it means nothing. 160 on someone who’s 5’10 vs 5’2 is going to look totally different. tbh two people who weight the same and are the same height will also carry their weight different. it’s not useful for anything other than making assumptions and judging
i never said it was lol it’s just silly to ask a question that doesn’t matter yk? like height is gonna be the same no matter what but weight changes from person to person. no one asking really cares about the number anyway, they just want to know if the person they’re talking to is fat and you can’t tell that just based off of a number
Stfu. 160 lbs on a 5f 4 frame can ONLY be within a certain range. Yes, some are more fit, but ALL THAT MASS IS SOMEWHERE. Usually fat. Coming from a skinny girl who used to be fat, STOP making excuses for the fatties to ignore being fat. It’s disrespectful to us who ACTUALLY fixed ourselves.
And yet you’re ignoring that there are people who do not have the resources to get the medical assistance needed to lose weight. It’s not just eating and exercise. Bodies are incredibly complicated. Some people are disabled. Maybe don’t be a fucking prick to people who aren’t as fortunate as you, yeah?
Yes. How dare anyone say anything about anything that isn’t war? Nobody should even go to work tomorrow or do anything unless it’s war related. Thanks random Yikyak user who should probably be thinking about war rather than commenting on Yikyak. Thank you for checking in on this meaningless app to keep us all honest.
Disagree. She asked about a physical description that she cared about. He should be able to at that point as long as it’s not sexual. Yes, even weight although society scoffs at it. Ironic because if he was short, he couldn’t work on that like you can with a few extra lbs. He literally can’t change it. So to me asking height should be more offensive than weight, even if society doesn’t think so.
I’m not defending either person cause both are in the wrong. But height I feel like is less offensive because it’s just being curious. This society has made things offensive. Height is being more curious and people don’t see that as offensive. Weight is usually being asked because it matters to who is asking and if you say a number they don’t like it means you’re probs getting blocked. Society has made different meanings out of what we say and ask.
First off ew that’s disgusting. It is ok to be bigger to an extent. If someone is laying around eating and not doing anything to help themselves then that’s not good. But the people that are trying to exercise and help themselves they shouldn’t be shamed or made fun of. No one should be shamed or made fun of. If it’s someone’s choice to not help themselves we can’t really do anything about that but that’s their choice
I exercise everyday and I eat healthy but im still bigger. Why? Cause of medical conditions and genes. And I don’t look the best cause of my height. But yk what? I’m not sitting around I take care of myself and I get great labs and my doctor says im healthy. Just because someone is bigger doesn’t mean they’re not healthy
it has no correlation. if he’s 6 foot chances are he is probably a scrawny dude who weighs 100lbs. and someone who is 5’0 and someone who is 5’10 will carry 150lbs way differently. and another thing, yall are sooo obsessed with ass and titties… you do realize those are both forms fat, right? but it’s an issue if there’s any other body fat in a female.
That’s if you want to be accurately informed. But…. I think the real reason behind the question is, a woman uses height as a way to measure desirability in a man. Something he cannot control. So men use it as a way of defense or deflection because women often argue “my genetics” but don’t want to be excluded over weight/body type. Men can feel attacked over something they can’t control, but feel like you can never judge a woman over what she says she can’t control.
I didn’t say that was the case. I explained the intention and reasoning. Men feel attacked and get defensive. They don’t want to be judged on height like women don’t want to be judged on weight. Or I’ll simplify it… men don’t want to be judged on a number they can’t control like women don’t want to be judged on a number they can’t control. Or I’ll simply it… men want to be accepted for their bodies too.
Calories in vs calories out. If you have PCOS (I have first hand experience in my family) you don’t gain weight if you don’t put food in your mouth. Your food intake is used as fuel. PCOS does not take all of the calories and store it as fat. You are just more likely to store than excess than others. You CANNOT gain weight if you do not exceed your fuel intake. Trying to insult others as a way to win an argument is not the way to do it either.
I didn’t say that. I’m not condoning or backing either side of this. But I would argue that a man 5’ even would have a harder time being accepted than a man 6’. So let’s say height and weight are uncontrollable. Let’s grant that as part of the argument. Would it be ok still if a 5’6” woman reject a 5’ man? Or is that body shaming? He can’t reject her if she’s 250 lbs. that’s body shaming, right? Not accepting her for who she is. Should he be accepted for who he is? Seems fair that way.
We can’t just not eat and even thought you’ve had experience in your family you haven’t had the experience yourself so you can’t fully know what we’re going through. I have pcos and I eat the right amount and I eat healthy and I exercise three times a day every day except weekends and I’ve been at a steady weight for 2 years. So please learn your shit before speaking
i couldn’t care less about someone height, dick size, or income. as long as i’m treated how i should be treated that’s all i care about. luckily for me i just happen to have all of those things in one guy. but none of the physical attributes or income are necessary. i have never looked for a guy based on height. i’ve always been a “bigger girl” because im short and cary weight differently and because of my genetics im built “like a man”. those are things i cannot control.
His question and her question are both about physical appearance. No not “ya’ll” are obsessed with ass and titties. I can turn around and say y’all, referring to women are obsessed with guys that are cut with muscles only and that would be incorrect. To generalize that chose you don’t think much. Like I said, in my original post, the fact that she blocked him after he asked about her weight speaks volumes of the type of person she is.
You don’t think it’s disrespectful because you’re not disrespected by it. Short men are extremely judged and it affects their lives. Step outside of your own perspective. Just because you’re fat and it affects you doesn’t make your problem worse than theirs. Especially because you have more control over your problem than they do genetics or not. You can still work harder they can’t work toward being taller. Ignorant af
I may be wrong but I think people read it the wrong way. Height is not a problem. I don’t think men are necessarily judged by it cause they can’t help it I think it’s just preferences which I think height shouldn’t matter but that’s my opinion weight is more seen as an issue than a preference to people and is judged more. Also I never said my problems worse. I have no doubt men are judged cause people suck in this world.if you read my other comments I work my ass off and don’t have much control
What did that have to do with the above comment. Literally nothing. Everyone has to voluntarily eat or else you die. Everyone has to eat. And it doesn’t matter how much you eat or what you eat it depends on exercise. But for some of us no matter what we do it doesn’t seem to be enough. Why’d you come and comment man. It’s been quiet since last night and all morning and you just had to start up
No but why can’t he just ask her about her height as well? Height is unchangeable and there are definitely also guys who don’t like to date certain heights in women. Her blocking him is silly, but guys ask the weight question as a “gotcha” moment when they rly aren’t equivalent
Not really. What you eat effects a large portion of your health. Exercise is mainly for your cardiovascular while the way you eat affects your cardiovascular, blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol. You need both to be healthy. My original battle here was to fight the double standard but it’s actually concerning how some of y’all just don’t understand what healthy is. It’s ok to be overweight but encouraging it like it’s not reversible is harmful.
Yes you need both to be healthy I never said you don’t need either to be healthy. In terms of losing weight eating healthy has different calories than eating junk so eating healthy would help when exercising cause it’s easier to burn off but really it doesn’t matter too much cause it depends how much you exercise to lose weight. I understand what healthy is and I am healthy cause I eat healthy and I exercise every day and it shows on my labs and what my doctor tells me.
I may be bigger but at least im healthy. I’m not encouraging being overweight. Never did I say “omg go girl!! Be overweight it’s okk!!” And sometimes it’s really not reversible or very hard to change and that’s what’s ok. If someone is sitting around doing nothing that’s not good but that’s their choice. If you’re taking care of yourself and you’re still overweight and you can’t change that then that’s ok. What you look like shouldn’t matter. How healthy you are should matter
If that was the case everyone would be bigger. Eating is required but not every case is gluttony. You’re acting like every single person is doing the wrong thing and just eating and eating. There’s other factors like medical conditions which we’ve already covered and there’s also the need for exercise. Just because you’re “perfect” and think you do everything right doesn’t mean you know everything about everyone else
this is kinda funny. Because I mentioned nothing about the height. There was a different conversation happening in this one big conversation and I made a general post towards the weight argument and said nothing about height so when it was mentioned for no reason that’s what’s ridiculous
Please just leave. Nobody is interested in talking about your specific situation. We are debating the double standard not whether or not it’s ok to be fat. I personally wouldn’t ask a woman their weight because I have eyes but if it’s ok to judge someone for their height it is ok to judge for their weight.
It’s not about my specific situation. My situation is an example for other parts of this conversation like sometimes it’s not always controllable. Like I said before I may be wrong but I don’t think men are being judged for their height. I think it’s preference and because of that some men may be rejected but that’s not their fault cause they can’t change their height and it’s ok for other people to have preferences. I think men are taking it as judgement when it’s not
You’re right it is a preference but there’s a difference between preference and bullying. Bigger people are judged wayyy more and bullied about it more than height is. Because weight is seen as changeable and disgusting thing. Everyone automatically assumes a bigger person isn’t taking care of themselves and they’re just fat. Weight is seen more as an issue and problem than height. If you don’t look a certain way it’s a problem but height isn’t a problem
So you’d like people to have more empathy toward bigger people? I totally agree with you that people judge bigger people more than people on height. And I feel like that’s valid? But it’s a known stat that MOST girls on apps filter 6ft and higher when that is only 18% of the population
Well yes. Asking weight is more disrespectful in my opinion because people are looking for a specific answer. I think height is more curiosity. And yes most girls probably have that filter set for that height but I think that goes with preference. I don’t think it’s right because height shouldn’t matter if you’re being treated right. I think 6ft might be a little exaggerated tho. I think girls want someone that’s taller whether by one inch or multiple and majority of guys are under 6ft
You just said yourself it’s an opinion. Opinion is an opinion. I never said I was 100% correct. I may be wrong about things but these are my opinions. And it’s ok to disagree on things. that’s the point of a conversation to talk about things. If you disagree that doesn’t mean I have to leave. You don’t have to read what I say either. I’m not trying to be rude or mean but I have a right to share because everyone’s opinions and experiences matter..
I’m not putting my struggle over anyone’s. We all have struggles and that’s because of how this society is shaped today. No one’s struggle is harder than the other person. I know im a woman and not a man. I have mentioned already that I may be wrong. But I still have a voice to share my opinion and thoughts. I don’t see how im a hypocrite but ok. And what I’ve said yes I do struggle with weight but the point is it’s disrespectful to anyone to ask weight and there’s other factors.
Rejecting someone based off of height (something they can’t control) is looked at as a healthy boundary for women. Rejecting someone based off of weight (something most people CAN control) is looked at body shaming for men. The logic is wrong. Neither should matter as long as you’re doing your best to be healthy. Attraction should be much more about personality than looks.
