Morning Discussion
by Alice O'Connor, Jul 16, 2010 5:00am PDTHello again, Internet. I'm properly back from the Develop 2010 conference now. It was jolly nice. A lot was awfully interesting and I'll have more to share over the next few days. What day is today? Not sure. Probably doesn't matter. Lovely people, just lovely.
Now to see how quickly I can read 471 e-mails and skim several thousand RSS items.

I have an overweight friend who is a good looking guy but well... he's big. He's always complaining about how he doesn't get any and how people aren't interested in him because of his size. Yet he also says that he is happy with the way he looks - just not happy that other people don't like the way he looks.
Should someone feel compelled to lose weight just to feel attractive to others?
I don't know whether to offer to work out with him or go jogging with him or whatever or whether he'd feel like that was insulting. But it got me to thinking, most people aren't interested in overweight partners. Does that make us ultimately shallow people? Perhaps we all are. :(
