Titmowse, there is a difference between obese and overweight. I'm pretty sure that overweight is just a few pounds extra that doesn't matter. Obese is having a weight that is about 30% greater than a normal healthy weight for your height. 125 for 5'2" is not obese, probably not even overweight.
TwilitesZone,
I'm going to be a junior at UW Madison and I'm 20 years old.
"How dare you compare aids to being overweight?"
They are both medical diseases. Both are unhealthy. Both should be considered unattractive. You might say this last point is wrong, but from an evoltionary standpoint, it certainly is unattractive in ALL cultures. This has been proven even with pygmies in SA with no contact to the western world. The most healthy size for a women's waist to chest ratio is 66-67% (or 24-36 for instance). This is the average across all cultures. You call me ignorant, but maybe you should look in the mirror pal and not judge others so quickly.
