• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Well, yeah, but the husband looks like he could provide a counterweight himself ...
That's not the problem. Show many wives something like this and you will immediately have a disastrous conversation starting with,"So are you saying I'm fat?". It is a downward spiral with no recovery after that.
Definitely not showing that picture to my wife.
Not ever.

Yeah, well, I'm not actually suggesting anyone do it.

I just was able to find it humorous, that's all. :)

But seriously, just because a husband shows his wife such an image, isn't calling HER fat? But then again, discretion may often be the better part of valor. Each man should know his own wife's temperament. :)

My wife being an RN, she sees CONSTANT obese folks and has to deal with them. She threw her back out a few weeks back as a few nurses sought to turn a 700-lbs. woman on her side!! This woman, Kate said, was like Jabba. It was rough. They get massive folks in all the time. That meme would make my wife crack up, not internalize it as herself being the counterweight LOL

That's good. I'm not skinny by any means, and these surgeries are making me a bit more body-conscious, but I still thought it was funny.

But - 700 pounds??? Wow ... that must be a miserable way to live. I can't imagine what that must be like. And I can't imagine trying to care for someone in that condition.

It's incredible indeed. She has a horrendous eating disorder, needless to say, and her super skinny husband is the ultimate enabler! Her family and husband were bringing her fast food while she was in the hospital!
