I do know that one may not be a lesbian if she is staring at another women, but you got to admit that it does have homo erotic undertones. I do not buy that people who make rude judgmental comments about others bodies is secure, because if you were secure and had any sense of self esteem you would
1. Not be constantly looking at other w omen’s bodies because you do not feel the need to compare yourself with others and make rude comments
2. You understand the concept of boundaries, and realize that it is none of your BUSINESS how another womens body shape is (and to make rude comments)

I hate seeing people make rude comments about other peoples bodies, I liken them to rapists and other social or psychopaths because they all have issues with boundaries.

Patricia, I agree with what you said and I would even take it one step further. I have to say those who are truly secure in their perception of their bodies appreciate everyone for the beauty they posses. I say this because one of my very good friends with an incredible body constantly amazes me by pointing out how different body shapes can be beautiful whereas I know that I am total sold on the coat hanger look, in fact sometimes I wonder even if I did look like a coat hanger would I still think I could lose some weight, cause I’m pretty sure the answer would be yes.

I think this is a great rule and I know I am totally guilty of breaking it all the time but from now on I’m going to at least try to be conscious of it. (I thought about saying incorporate it into my life but I think being conscious of it is a more feasible step in the right direction)

Yeah i have done that the comparison thing. I also have been raised that way, so it is really hard to stop because sometimes I don’t even catch myself doing it. I hear it from others all the time “she needs to not wear that…haha” it is do rude. I need to get rid of this habit it is no ones place to say these things!

You know, I’ve never been on to “stare someone up and down”, but I’ll admit that in the past, I have had fleeting judgemental thoughts. “Oh, she shouldn’t be wearing that,” kinds of thoughts. But recently, I have found my thoughts changing. I don’t have those thoughts as much anymore, and when I do, I tell that voice in my head to shut up.

On the other hand, though, I’ve found myself admiring other women – of ALL shapes and sizes – if they catch my eye. Again, I don’t stand there and leer, but if I happen to see them, and some aspect of them looks good, then THOSE are the thoughts that occupy my mind now. For example, there is a fat woman that I see practically every day. I don’t know her name, but she’s a beautiful Asian (I’m thinking Korean but I can’t be 100% sure) woman, and I’ve noticed that she seems to be taking more interest in her clothes and the way she looks in general – and she’s looking GREAT, I must say! I’m not quite brave enough to go up to her and say anything, but I can’t fail to notice how good she’s been looking lately. Is that wrong of me?

As much as you might disagree with me, I simply can’t believe that it could be.

I disagree with the women being seen as lesbian thought. From my experience and I think most people will agree, women are free to look at other women without the fear of being labeled gay. Men can’t do that, not even in these times. If it’s not looked at as gay its looked at as weak…

You are right, Annie, some people are just jerks. But I try to maintain the attitude of “more to be pitied than scorned”.

Patricia Fraser, I just wanted to say that I have known plenty of people who were genuinely cocky, arrogant, proud of their looks, and quite secure in their own superiority that enjoyed tearing down other people’s looks, etc. I don’t think I buy that it’s always covering for some deep, buried secret self-loathing. Sometimes people are just rotten and mean and evil, even though they love themselves quite a bit.
