There are girls that fetishize fat. That is a horrifying concept, your flaws and weaknesses are a key to sex with some. Essential you'd become a slave to your weakness unless you've got a lot of will power. How on Earth could a man become fit and strong if he's being sexually gratified for being disgusting?

>reading "How to Read A Poem"
>get to this one by Pope
While maudlin Whigs deplored their Cato’s fate,
Still with dry eyes the Tory Celia sate;
But while her pride forbids her tears to flow,
The gushing waters find a vent below:
Though secret, yet with copious grief she mourns,
Like twenty river-gods with all their urns.
Let others screw their hypocritic face,
She shows her grief in a sincerer place:
There Nature reigns, and Passion void of art,
For that road leads directly to the heart.
