    Absolutely.

    I used to think that I found fat people of either sex uncomfortable to be with until, in a professional setting, I encountered a heavyweight woman wrestler. Yes really. I was teaching adult literacy classes at that time, since you asked. She was enormous with rolls of flesh you wouldn't believe. But she absolutely loved her body and was so comfortable in her own skin that she just radiated contentment. And that was the point at which I realised that I felt uncomfortable in the company of people who felt uncomfortable in themselves regardless of their size: it was just the big ones who -er- stood out.

    I've always found the overweight people I've known over the years to be much cheerier than 'normal' sized people. :thumbup:

    I had an overweight friend who was happy with her own body, but said she resented the expectation people seemed to have, that fat people should always appear to be happy and jolly.

    Bit of both for me - some very cheerful people and some very sad people who live their lives trying to lose weight., with little success.

    … And being 70 in the 20’s is more fun than being 20 in the 20’s!
