Fat Acceptance Plus

Hi

That most likely was me, few Fat Men back then were sharing anything about their own fat, even if they themselves were supportive of Fat Women issues. I have read many great threads by women about POCS and its hormonal effects, there is much that is comparable to Gynecomastia. I do not think that I took your comment the wrong way and most like was replying to the troll. Fat will store estrogen and both men and women produce estrogent, a large problem is all the artificial sources for estrogen and estrogen like chemicals for both Fat Men and Women. Gynecomastia is truly a genetic condition and estrogen will increase the problem, but there are many more Fat Men, even very large men who have relatively small breasts

You are right both Fat Men and Women face attacks from all sides these days. You can find me on the Fat Blog-o-sphere.

Hello William! I believe we have communicated before, but this is the first time I'm seeing your site. I remember communicating with someone who posted to the Usenet fat acceptance group regarding gynecomastia, and telling him privately that I had PCOS, and commiserating about how far too many folks are freaked out by people who don't appear to stay within the "proper" bounds of their genders. Was that you? Also, I believe you wrote to me when I answered some stupid troll who posted some study about fat men having more female hormone. I had said that if it were so, then fat women must be especially loaded with female hormones and must be ultimate in femininity. I was not trying to ignore a man's point of view; I just wanted to show that these studies interpreted results in the most negative way possible when it comes to fat people. When it comes to women, you'll see studies that say fat women have more problems with pregnancy and childbirth. What studies of this kind are trying to show is that fat people (men and women) are failures at sexuality and reproduction.
Anyway, I hope I have not unwittingly said something offensive to fat men. I happen to believe that, not only should there be more fat men in fat acceptance, but also some smaller folk of either gender and every race. Unreasonable hatred hurts us all.

Very nice site!

Very nice site!

Hi Mohammed

Sorry I took so long to answer your post.

All I can say is that you have to start accepting yourself or have surgery. If you can not afford surgery then you have no other option than to accept yourself. You can not change society or your colleagues. One tool that I use is to think about all the people in the world that are worse off than me. You have a job at a computer company, there are many people in the world who would love to have a job. You are married there are many people in the world still looking for a mate. I have to view in myself all the things that Mother Nature did right, I can walk, run, jump, see and hear, those are all gifts.

Hi Stella

Welcome You have to let go and accept yourself. I know that it is rasier said than done, but what are the options.....

Hope you find some friends and support in Fat Acceptance.

William

I joined one or two of the yahoo groups you linked to. i also looked up the PETA billboard which I had no idea about. I'm just a woman who is tired of hating herself and finally, finally, working on acceptance and peace. God Bless, Stella

Hi

I just want to welcome the new members and I hope to start to do more things with this sight.
