Beauty is in the eye of the beholder There once was a saying that "good things come in small packages"...that can be true but it can also be true about a larger size as well. I enjoy large individuals as they appear more down to earth to me. So often I have found small, slender individual to be in a constant state of "worry" about what they can and can't do because of their size or how doing something affects their size - like eating. I enjoy larger men/women as they are what they are and if they are comfortable with themselves you know it right off. I choose to look at the individual and often feel that God made the larger style bodies because he couldn't put into a small individual all that is packed into a larger person. There is more room for more love, compassion, understanding and all the rest. I truly believe that larger men/women are free to be themselves more...they are what they are...accept it and like it or turn away...they like themselves. Each individual has a choice and you have to accept that. I find larger individuals to have better personalities as well. I believe it is all about what is on the inside of an individual that counts not what they look like on the outside...while at the same time finding that it is the larger people who often have the better insides. So often large people have been stereotyped as "lazy" yet I have seen individuals larger work rings around smaller individuals. I feel that God created us all just as He wanted us to be, yet society is so quick to judge on size. I for one am on the side of those with size. Besides when I put my arms around someone to hug them, I want to feel that person and have them feel my hug rather than having to worry about how hard I hug them without hurting them because of their smallness. There is nothing wrong with SMALL individuals and I am sure there are many out in the world who possess just as many good qualities as I have named. I am just the kind of individual who prefers a larger man/woman for the reason I have listed.
