I have never seen such narcissistic BS spouted with any straighter a face than you mustered. Well done.

You just can’t be aroused, huh? Bullshit. This is a manipulative line. You’re trying to force your wife to do what you want, because otherwise she’s depriving you of a sex life.

Maybe you’re telling the truth, and 20 lbs means you just aren’t turned on. Try hormone treatments, buddy. You will find the ability to get turned on by your wife if you correct what’s wrong with YOU.

“The truth is that losing weight and keeping a particular shape isn’t difficult. It’s a matter of choice. Period.”

For some people it’s not that easy. But your self-centered narcissitic worldview has no room for those people, does it?

“BTW, I’m certain you noticed the age difference between myself and my wife. The primary reason that I married someone significantly younger than myself is that my contemporaries, almost to a woman, seem fixated on blaming their problems on men.”

White Christian men have it so hard!

“Crap, my life would be SO much easier if a flabby midsection got my rotor going. But it just doesn’t work for me. Some other guys, maybe, but not me. And my wife knew that when she married me.”

BAWWWWWW! More unwarrented self pity.

“My God, you’d think I was asking her to cut off a leg or something, the way you ladies complain about it.”

You don’t seem to understand why we have a problem with you, so let me explain this. You were being a selfish prick. You didn’t want your wife to lose weight because it affected her health, or something like that. You wanted her to lose weight because your penis had to be satisfied, and there was no way your marriage could be happy until your penis was satisfied. You didn’t want her to lose weight for her, or even for the both of you, you wanted her to lose weight only for yourself!

“My wife and I adopted both children, so your remarks about childbirth are completely irrelevant. And even if she had given birth there are plenty of women who lose the extra weight and keep it off.

Losing weight and keeping weight off is easy. You simply start eating less and start exercising more. All the excuses that people give are just so much BS. If you’re carrying extra weight, it’s because you don’t want to eat healthy and exercise. Period.”

Where’s your science? Where’s your evidence to support this? Because right now, all I’m hearing is empty rhetoric.

“If she had the intelligence to actually do research rather than just spout dogma”

IRONY ALERT! IRONY ALERT! IRONY ALERT!

“she’d know that one-parent families, specifically fatherless ones, are toxic to children. There is a direct correlation between fatherlessness and juvenile delinquency, depression and host of other problems.”

I’ve heard that statistic! And I’ve also heard that statistic may be because of other factors involved in an environment, not just because there’s no father in the picture.

“In any case, you don’t have to be the “right size” in some objective sense, only the right size for the person that you’re with.”

What about being the right size for yourself? What about being happy with the weight that you are and to hell with what anyone, including your spouse, thinks?

“Melissa, everyone has an excuse.”

I really wish I could live in this beautiful world of yours where everything is so simple!

“Whining about “why don’t men have to keep in shape” — go ahead and complain all you like, but blaming this fact on men is completely ridiculous.”

Everyone’s always persecuting the white, Christian male. Quick, call the WAAAAmbulance!

every, and i mean every, serious girl-friend i’ve ever had made a comment about my weight gain whenever i would stop my work-out/eating plan regimen and just be my “authentic self”. you know, the same guy, but instead of going to the gym 3days on/1 day off weight training split sessions and watching what i eat, i would spend my previous gym time watching all my favorite tv shows and eating all the REALLY tasty foods like cheeseburgers and fries and pizza and donuts and cake and ice-cream whenever i wanted and as much as i wanted, which is what i’d really rather have been doing instead of sweating in the gym every day.

that is my authentic self. sitting at home, watching tv, not working out, eating like a pig,balancing a can of beer on my Buddha belly and not shaving or waxing my back and private man parts. hey! that’s the REAL me. LOVE ME!!!! BOTH EROS AND AGAPE! FOR MY AUTHENTIC SELF!!!!

nope. didn’t happen. they didn’t want to love me in the eros way. they ALL said very nicely that they just weren’t attracted to me any more “in that way”. i mean, they still loved me, but now only as a friend. and this was before i even let it get to the point where was as i described above. so i would start up the workout regimen again, lose my beer gut, get back to a 32 inch waist and 155 lbs on my 5′7″ frame, and they would start to sleep with me again.

god, i feel so used. they only wanted me for my body. even the one i married only wanted me for my body. i mean, as an olympic sprinter, she of all people should know how hard it is, the self discipline required to maintain such a training regimen, and give me some slack. but nope. she wasn’t having it.

we’ve since divorced, and now i get to sit home, watch tv, eat what i want as much as i want, i don’t work out anymore and weigh about 230 lbs now, last i checked. just being my authentic hairy-backed self. but it seems i’m gonna have to be my authentic hairy-backed self alone, unless i wanna rent some female company for a few hours.

not right, not fair, but the way it is.

What a horrible person she is. And what a horrible person this “Kephren” is. I couldn’t help thinking that, if he’s really so concerned about the li’l ladies figure, he should be spending less time commenting on the interturd and more time policing what she eats.

Kephren says: My PENIS! Who’s gonna take care of my PENIS?! Waaaaaaah.

I’m betting a grand he’s never found a clit in his life. Not that he’d bother looking for it.

In that case I’d like someone to explain what happened to me. I’ve maintained the same size and weight for a long time. Then a few months ago I made the (in hindsight stupid) decision to have a contraceptive injection, which is known to have potential weight gain as a side effect. With NO change in diet or exercise philosophy from before, the weight piled on. And because this hormone is retained in the system for a long time, losing the weight is borderline impossible at the moment.

I say again – NO diet change, NO difference in exercise and yet a large amount of weight piled on in a very short time.
