i focused for the most part of my life on looking good and dressing well and i may have a belly i hold myself to a high regard becasue i have a whole lotta confidence.
still no excuse for being fat. and by all means i think the world should be put on a training cycle. hell im starting rugby again and seeing my old trainer after leaving for work.

The reason it's believed that fat people can't look good is because fat people can't do androgyny well and androgyny has essentially been en vogue for the last 30 years.

So much of modern fashion and what's considered cool or sexy is about playing with androgyny, it's about adding an edge of masculinity to womenswear and a slight air of femininity to menswear.

Fat girls that fuck with masculinity look like bull dykes and fat guys that fuck with femininity look like past their prime castrato's.

I feel the only way fat guys can look really cool or sexy is to go a hyper masculine route and a hyper feminine route for fat women. I think this is more obvious with fat women and their obsession with pin up girl styles, yeah it usually looks awful but I think they're aiming in the right direction. Also I should probably make clear at this point that I think overweight can look good but probably not obese. Not to mention ultimately if the person just lost weight they would be able to dress in a range of different styles and look good instead of being stuck to playing up their gender as much as possible.

That's my theory at least.

You can't really talk about anything to do with gender these days without at least a passing familiarity with Judith Butler, who Twerk keeps dropping. Go Wiki her at least before you go any further.

That said, what's advantageous about dividing people up and assigning them different ways of being in the world based on their genitalia? Personally, I've always thought both masculinity and femininity both had a bunch of useful and a bunch of shitty behaviors included in them, and the point as a human now is to take the best from each.

And logically, then, signify that in appearance.

Foucault seemed like a multi-layered man. Any one studying the relation of power to knowledge is a man close to my heart. He seems close to Nietzsche.

Butler however interests me in different ways but not to the extent of Simone de Beauvoir. Philosophy is a passion of mine. Like anything that effects the human condition it is proper to pick apart and philosophize gender so you know truly what you feel and why you feel that way. Most are led to belive something about genders at a young age and never elevate their thoughts on it beyond that.

>there has been a definiton for what makes a man a man and a woman a woman for ages before.

But that's not true, there have been countless traditional societies that recognize transgender individuals and homosexuals for thousands of years. There are tribes in india that recognize 5 genders, and they're practically ancient!
Trans folks were all over Japan, China, Thailand, Vietnam for ages. They had formalized roles in society.
There's mention of it in South American tribes, Native American tribes. People have always transcended traditional gender roles and many traditional communities have created formalized niches for these people, often regarding them as sacred or more intimately linked to the divine.

Your point of view is just that - it's your point of view. It's important to you - I don't doubt that your conception of gender identity plays a significant role in the way you interface with reality - but at the end of the day it's YOUR point of view. You don't really get to pass judgement on the clinical viability of gender dysphoria, it's not your oeuvre. You're secure in who you are, what equipment you were born with (I assume). Assuming you're unacquainted with this feeling of 'not belonging' that so many people have said they've experienced all throughout history, I don't really see how you get the right to pass a judgement on it.

Then the thread took a turn in a different direction from fat to transgender and I didn't have anything to say, I kind of skimmed whatever was being said but my eyes usually glaze over at that kind of thing. This thread has been going on since this morning too so I haven't even been around for most of it. Also I never have a problem with threads diverging into new discussions it's the beauty of imageboards. Just making this post to clear my name of bitchassness.

All this proves is that there has been a mental illness we have not addressed for hundreds pf years.

If you have a Y chromosome you will always be male,it's as simple as that. You can go through countless surgeries and fuck your body up beyond up beyond up beyond recognition but in the end you will just be a male who has fucked up his body due to a mental illness,

I wonder if it's like a stem nerd thing, or an autism thing that stuff like gender roles and belief systems have to all be binary for some people.

Do they just hate seeing the categories get disarrayed or something? Is it an OCD thing? I'm really struggling to conjure why some people think they have any say over another person's concept of self-identity.
Like, where does that seem like a good idea? How do you get there? How do you decide that your opinion of right and wrong outweighs all others?
I think it's some kind of mental illness, honestly. This constant surety in your own beliefs, this need to make sure that YOUR perception of the status quo applies across the board. The need to enforce your vision on other people. It's unhealthy.
It must be a horrible way to live. I an't imagine how much cortisol that sort of thinking produces.

I think you might enjoy life a lot more if you let go of a issues that don't concern you, if you realize that things don't need to exist in absolutes. Let life and people flow through and past you, enjoy the unique flavor of this chapter in your life without having to draw conclusions, without having to pass judgement, without having to label and categorize.
Just try it, for an hour, for a half hour. Just stop judging and thinking about labels, just try to see it all as a see of people, scared and confused as you are, trying to make their own way in a very big place and worried about the future.

They were scared of the things in the closet that frightened you as a child. They can experience love and joy and pain and rage just like you. Why not just try thinking of them not as sick, or abnormal, or genetic anomalies, but human beings, just like you?

Each of those dudes is wearing $10,000+ worth of clothing. I guarantee most of them are in finance or a high paying creative field. Actually I know for a fact the Korean dude in the back is a German lawyer who I believe specializes in patent law.

The reality is most of the people who buy and wear clothing that expensive are middle aged guys with legit careers that make real bank,

If we want to use Capitalism as the measuring stick to judge ones worth to society we can say this is directly tied to how much capital one generates. Ergo people buying $1000 sneakers are almost certainly worth more to society than a low level intern in a button up and khaki's.

WomeN have estrogen and many more hormones which make them emotional
Also women can do things men cannot like have a period or go to the womens room

My first thought was that it's rooted in a lack of curiosity and a lack of... pleasure in others' humanness, I guess. I don't mean just or even really sexual repression - I mean the fizzy warmth we get when in an open channel with another self/other selves, the sense of discovery and joy and appreciation and camaraderie, of surprise and tingle at this strange other inner world.

There is also, almost certainly, a component of just straight insecurity: they want to be living The Right Way, and the presence of people living differently and not completely fucking up terrifies them, because they haven't yet realized there's no such thing as The Right Way, the One True Path, no step by step checklist to not wanting to kill yourself.

But actually, at bottom, you what I think it goes back to? An insufficiently developed or realized sense of how important freedom, self creation, real autonomy is to a human life. As I get older, even as someone who always had a big emphasis on this in at least a superficial and/or narcissistic way, it continually surprises how it seems to loom more and more important in human life. And how sad and violent its lack and limitation is.

Someone who really understood in their gut how important the sort of freedom I'm talking about is - I can't really do it justice in words at the moment, but I think a good number of people here know what I'm talking about - could easily think trans* people of some or all kinds were in some sense(s) wrong and still stand by them and get how toxic to everyone their oppression is.

Aggression is correlated to testosterone but not a 1:1 function of it. Testosterone also has nothing to do with ability to go to the men's restroom, which is physical space equally permeable by people with lesser testosterone. Social conventions dictate who can use what space. They may be indirectly correlated to testosterone.

For the attributes and behaviors you tie to women, the same logic applies.

I walk into the women's restroom in jeans and a t-shirt. The law where I live says I am allowed to do this. If someone complains, I will inform them of the law. If someone assaults me I will shoot them. So really I have all my factual and legal bases covered here, the only obstacles are psychological and social, easily mediated by ignoring them.

Your personal opinion doesn't dictate what society deems attractive, and at all levels and price points in western society androgyny has been on the rise, infinitely more so than it was even 60 years ago. Seriously look at the big picture, look at fashion as a dialogue that stretches back to even just a thousand years ago. Never before in the history of human civilization have people dressed more androgynous than right now. There is no masculine garment women can't wear and it be deemed unacceptable by society and there are only a handful of feminine garments that men still can't wear and even that is being eroded in the most liberal of urban areas.

Doesn't matter what you or I personally think of it, the reality is that it's a massive part of the dialogue and defining what is today considered cool, sexy, beautiful etc. As I explained in my earlier post that's why I feel overweight people have so much more of a rough time today than 60 years ago. Back then men wore suits and women wore dresses, suits are built around adding structure which helped unshapely fat men and dresses can hide all sorts of gaffes the fat women deal with.

Fat people so often look bad today or have a perception that they can't look good because they're routinely forced into androgynous garments like skinny jeans in order to take part in fashion. Fat people deal with a paradox in that they have to wear certain clothes to fit in and the clothes that are cool and people wear to fit in do not make fat people look good at all and this in turn makes them stand out and look akward or bad.

I feel looking good and looking cool are often synonymous but in the case of fat people I think they need to forgo trying to look cool and keep up with trends and instead focus on looking good and dressing for their body type, playing up their gender, in the case of men focusing on the imposing size of their frame and with women accentuating the curves of their body.

He doesn't look ridiculous at all, he looks damn good. All you hungry skeletons need to be quiet and realize that you don't look good to anyone but yourself (Internet losers) when you're 5'10 85 pounds

No, just someone who isn't completely obsessed with dressing the way the Internet tells me. I'm also not self conscious enough to think that being skinny is being 100 pounds. The only people who think that looks good are yourselves. Your favourite designer Rick even said it, you guys are just little pussies to afraid to go outside and engage in some athletic activity.

Then just buy normal cut clothes in your size. Sure, you won't look model-skinny tier. You'll look like you are: bulky.

>>6421838
I believe no matter how fat or how skinny you are, you can find a way to look good fashionably. (This is excluding absolutely massive people). My main annoyance with /fa/ is that people refer to someone who is my build, 5'10 150 pounds, as fat, when in reality I am an athlete who is in good shape with 10% body fat. I'm less fat than you skeletors who have no muscles and weigh 110 pounds.

It`s cause he has some muscle underneath holding up the folds.
