Hey guys, after lurking for a while decided to submit the observation that one of my friends made few weeks ago.
I live in a large Canadian city. One of my friends had a birthday, and to celebrate he invited a small group of guys (all early-mid 20's) to watch a burlesque show. The show was more "artistic" than anything, and you could tell that it was not a professionally done kind of thing, occasionally going off script. A large number of performers were either overweight, tattooed or both. Nevertheless, the performance was done relatively well given the price, and our group didn't have too bad of a time.
Among the group there was this guy who recently came to Canada from Russia. After the show, a group of us got talking and this guy said the quote in the title. When asked to elaborate, he said that none of the women were attractive, and that back in Russia nobody would pay to see tattooed fat girls dance (his words). Because there are so many "ugly" girls here, some guys would rather date other guys, according to his logic.
So this got me thinking, does he have a point in his observations? Do you think that higher obesity rates in women can have a role in influencing someone's preferences?
