Is the objection to “fat chicks”, to use your term, essentially esthetic in nature? I submit that it is not.

I’ll tell you something you may not realize. The objection to overweight women by men, in most cases, has little to do with esthetics and everything to do with a perception that fat people, generally speaking, are those who lack a certain type of self control. It is the lack of self control, ultimately, which is unattractive. Not the hip to waist ratio.

Oh, I know what you’ll say. How come men don’t hold each other to this standard? Simple answer: other men aren’t potential mates. Perhaps that’s unfair. But there it is.

So men do not want overweight women who they perceive as lacking self-control. You say that is bad, and it probably is in many ways. I would ask your thoughts, then, as to why no matter how much money educated women make, they overwhelmingly seem to want a guy who earns a great deal more than they do, and comment on the fairness of that.
