#6933 Alright, I know that fat people will not be viewed as more attractive than skinny people anytime soon, which is fine. That's how the world works. What bothers me is when people think they have the right to comment on other people's bodies, ESPECIALLY to those people directly. If someone is fat, believe me, they know it. Even if they're body positive, no one is psyched to be fat. Promise. If someone is too skinny, they don't need to be told to eat more. They're normally already too aware that people notice their size. Let's promote good health without condemning anyone, okey dokey? :)

#6932 I'm going to be taking classes at UMD over the summer. I feel like I'll be so alone since there will be so few people on campus. I don't own a fake and I'm not sure how to meet people to hang out with.

#6931 I have been working for this company, and I was given the duty of going through bunch of resumes for new candidates. The very first thing I look for is that if that person belonged to some type of frat or a sorority. If they are, I throw them out first. Then I look through those colorful resumes, and throw them out. Then I actually proceed to read through the rest of the resumes for relevant information.

#6930 @ #6885 "It frustrates me when someone denies the effects of privilege and/or oppression."

I identify with this and here's my story. It's about time to get it off my chest.

There's a good saying in the country I come from and that is "Don't judge and you will not be judged." I have never understood people who give me looks and call me privileged in my face or behind my back when they find out I come from a rich family. I am also white and a Jew.
In my high school I was bullied by kids on a constant basis because I am a Jew. That's just how things were there. Funny, because we were not even that religious, my name and appearance just gave it away. Unfortunately, nobody bothered to ask me about it. In addition, kids in my high-school were on the richer side and very open about it; hence, more bullying and more harassment for me because nobody knew I came from a rich family. I was called a “cheap piece of shit.” But I was taught to be humble around my classmates which meant not telling anyone about travelling outside of the country 4-5 times a year with my family, wearing clothes that would look plain and simple, and not being able to invite my classmates to visit my house. I do not blame my family, I am glad that was the way I was brought up. I’d rather not have any friends than have friends who only like me for money. In the end of it all, I graduated high school with a little below 4.0, no friends, and a strong feeling I was a shitty person even though I did nothing wrong. So much for being white and privileged.
Now I go to UMD. And I feel blessed to have found the community of people that accept me for who I am, and not for my looks, my money, or the origins of my last name. It pains me, however, to see judgmental generalizations about people and their privileges on this page. I just want to urge all of you to stop before you think about judging somebody. Everyone deserves a chance to show you who they really are before you jump into conclusions.

#6929 I'm really sorry. I wanted to sleep with you, but I hadn't shaved and I couldn't give you a blow job because you most likely didn't have a condom on you

#6928 Some women can be so evil. I try to be your perfect guy :(

#6927 You know what... my next relationship is going to be completely sexless. Everytime the other person brings up the idea of having sex, I'm just going to respond "Are you only in this relationship for the sex?" That way I can finally get to know what a relationship with another person is like without sex having the chance to ruin it. And, if the person leaves immediately then it will show that they were in fact only in it for the sex and can try again until I find someone more understanding.

Now guess if I'm a woman or a man.

#6926 I have this annoying tendency to fall madly in love with everyone I meet.
