It isn't so much feminist rage as the very clear knowledge that we were not "worthy" when we were larger. I am now half to being out of the 200 club and find that people (male and female) are much more polite.<br /><br />On the flip side, holding on to the rage just isn't healthy. Unless someone that distinctly snubbed me when I was heavier does something, I don't find it worth noting. And even if there was someone who had distinctly snubbed me, a look and a word would be enough to make my point known.Kyrsyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09957263881716217466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-88825707636017097342017-02-25T10:17:19.913-07:002017-02-25T10:17:19.913-07:00The heavy one's don't "deserve" ...The heavy one's don't "deserve" help any more than the scrawny ones. <br /><br />But they *need* it more.
