"Some women are neurotic about weight after they're married because of a little insecurity. I dunno... I think a lot of women are nuts in general about size"
This is once again back to MSM. Every magazine, t.v. show, movie - tells us if we are not a size 2, we are not acceptable. Then, you get married, and realize if you do not stay the size 2(especially after the babies come) you may be faced with a husband who will go elsewhere to seek pleasure.
Hallie Berry? SHE WAS CHEATED ON, and is now divorced! If she has to deal with it - there is not much hope for the rest of us.
"It's weird. Most of my fellow lower-middle class suburbanites like to see a woman with meat on her bones. But all the women I see in the high end country club subdivisions I work in are all bone skinny."
It's due to two things. Lower middle class cannot afford the gym memberships (usually), and to eat the way you should (organic, fat free, etc.) Takes cash. Notice how the low priced food which are not healthy makes it into the carts of those on a budget?
Now, consider the high enders. They can have the nanny watch the kids while they go spend time with their personal trainer,and have someone prepare their meals so they don't have to think about what they are eating. They simply tell them their goals, and all is provided.
Classism plays a big role in who is 'in' and who is 'out'.
AND...glad to hear you say that last part. If I were a man, I would not want my woman to look like everyone else. Curves make us who we are! Thank you , Vigilantcitizen!
Actually, fresh produce is cheap, at least it is around here. So is chicken. What it takes to produce healthy, real food is time. It's alot easier to make creamed potatoes out of a box than it is out of real "taters".
Your other points about high/lower class are quite valid.
