Transcript:
Arlo: You look great!
Arlo: Why sweat a few pound?
Janis: "Because I want to pig out on holiday goodies, all right?"
Arlo: Well, why didn't you say so?
I used to be surprised when I’d see a cute young lady just hork down a huge meal ………or two in a row……..Society put’s a lot of pressure on girls and women to look their best at all times, including the shape of their bodies….but they mostly have the same drive to eat as their chubby male friends….Look, a guy can “forget” to shave a few days in a row, put on T-shirt that promotes his pudgy belly and go to the store…..Women don’t get to do that…..And yes, they do get hungry……
Even when they give specific orders, you’re wrong.My wife called me up and said to bring home some 7-Up. I said, “OK, 7-UP.” I get home and put 7-Up on the table, and she says, “Where’s the ginger ale?”
I love the “Rubinesque” figure that my wife of 40 years has. She ( by her standards) is about 15 lbs.overweight,but i love it. With a little protruding tummy, which I find very sexy! Go figure!
eepeqezLiving in Vancouver, we got culture shock from neighbors from Australia, Fiji, etc. waxing nostalgic over Boxing Day picnics. .twypsiFreudians would enjoy you; bulgy bellies and early pregnancy that you caused, very sexy.
