Fat Chicks Don’t Get Rings
By Bianca
I have a not so secret love for trashy reality tv. A few hours every week of delusional chicks either competing for some washed up loser, or spending outrageous amounts of money on tacky shit, and I am one happy Bianca. I especially love The Housewives franchise and get super excited every time they announce a new cast. I’m pretty sure I squealed like a schoolgirl when the New Jersey season was announced.
Unfortunately this post is not about my love for Dina, Caroline, Theresa, Danielle and Jacqueline. It’s about some dumb bitch (yes I said dumb bitch) over at Television Without Pity who posted the following on The Housewives message board.
If Caroline’s daughter thinks she is going to marry “rich”, I’ve got news for her! Rich men want THIN women. And, if she’s this “chunky” at what, 20(?), she’s not going to be getting any thinner. Not fair, but unfortunately it is true! I have lots of friends who are beautiful yet overweight and they can’t get arrested. They date men who waste their time and then marry someone who is maybe not as pretty, but who is thin. The only overweight girls I know who married are those from rich families themselves and the guys were not from rich families. Not even wealth like shown on this show. Just where the girl’s family has “more”. So, if Caroline’s daughter does marry, I’ll bet dollars to donuts that the guy and/or his family is worth less money than hers, and that marrying her would be a “step up” for him. (Emphasis mine.)
Hear that fatties? Rich men don’t want you. Even if you’re pretty and funny and intelligent and just a super awesome person, they don’t fucking want you. In fact, the only way you’re ever going to get any man to marry you (instead of just using you for sex, which is kind of implied in the above post) is to make sure your parents have a sizeable dowry saved up to marry your fat ass off.
No money? I guess you better develope an eating disorder then.
WHAT.THE.FUCK?
Are there still people out there who are really this ignorant? This is even stupider than the school of thought that all fat people are lazy, eat too much, refuse to exercise, and are at any minute going to DIE!! because of teh fat.
I’m fat. I’m not rich. And I am married. I guess I’m like a mythical unicorn or something.
[...] married fat chicks (Ummm, everyone know fat chicks can only get men to marry them if they’re rich, duh!) [...]
Why do you supply your own situation as evidence?
She said rich men. Is your husband rich? Someone needs to brush up on the reading comprehension. I’m sure your husband had to settle for you. People settle, all the time, in many different areas.
The observation is that rich men don’t have to settle, and therefore, tend to not settle. I would say it’s a fair observation based on common sense.
Ewww, have you read this blog? Of course my husband is rich; I don’t associate with fat or poor people, thank you very much!
I’m fat and my husband is rich. So there.
Miz H, we totally need to go shopping with our rich husband’s credit cards, and then do a long lunch.
