Oh my god,  here I am, a straight male writing about feelings and emotions.

Wait… here I am, a straight male writing about feelings and emotions, while living in West Hollywood, California and sitting  next to my super cute little Chihuahua.

Damn…. All macho has left the building.

While it’s true, I bantered last week about the “More to Love” crazy’s, I feel compelled to do a follow up.  Yes, I was sucked in again to the dating spectacle just to see if they ceased and desisted smacking the girls weight, menstrual cycle and other bits of “to much information” across the screen.

I am pleased to announce that the producers are human and chose not to repeat that offense, but, when can I expect these “love contestants” to learn how to be functioning beings?

Darlings, here is a bit of advise that you didn’t ask for.

These men in your life did not ignore you, nor did they “pick you last” or not fall in love with you solely because of your weight!  Do I need to repeat this? Ok… I will.

NO ONE MAKES A LONG TERM DATING DECISION BASED ON A SINGULAR FACTOR!

The sniffling baby cry-a-lots’ on the show seem to blame their lack of dating, sex, world peace or worsening national economy solely on the fact that they love food.

Of course, we are all immediately attracted to a certain body type, smell, look or attitude, but we don’t base every decision on those split second attractions.   If your physicality is not something that rivals Mrs. ‘Almost’ Pitt or the models on HipsAndCurves.com, then own it and step up to the other 8 million options that we possess or can discover!

Learn a new skill, smile more, laugh more, make others laugh more, be more at peace, do something…ANYTHING…better than anyone else!  It’s as simple as that!

That’s what attracts us, sustains friendships and long term relationships.

Girls, are you honestly going to feel terrible because not every random sperm donor thinks you are perfection at every second of every day?  Why not focus on what you want? Focus on what YOU are attracted to and emanate that from your gorgeous, curvy body!!

Wear sexy lingerie, or wear flannel jammies or wear nothing at all! Everyone has different desires and not every day is the same. The only one that you need to please and stay true to… is YOU.

I have experienced women out there that will find excuses for everything in life because of one small (or large) segment of their being!  Can you imagine a big girl, criticizing another big girl, because she’s NOT a true BBW?

Nothing is sexier to this odd ball chef than a confident woman who smiles and doesn’t try very hard to impress.  I’ll talk to the seemingly average looking girl at the bar that just sits and smiles and enjoys her bar snacks and booze with far more vigor than a woman who is trying to channel the evil Paris Hiltons’ of the world and overworking everything she has just to desperately attract the attention of…anyone that will listen.

We each have unlimited access to find what makes us special.  When the stars are aligned, or the fates are tested, or the booze is flowing freely, we will discover another person that just so happens to like one, two or fifty of those special parts of our essence and a friendship is born!

Be consistent, be yourself, be proud of what you offer, or if you are not, then change it in to something that you are proud of.   Simple no?

Ok lovely women of all shapes, ask yourself the next time you feel slighted because another person didn’t like your rolls as much as Entenmanns…would I really want to talk to a “tool” that loves everything about me except my dress size?

Until we meet again, smile more, drink better champagne and love that everyday, we get another chance to make things better in our life.

    I am a so called reality TV hater, but I decided to watch More to Love in the hopes that something productive was being done to eliminate the ‘gotta be skinny stigma’ that is prevalent on television. Instead I was treated to an hour long pity party. Mr. Bachelor guy was kind enough to throw them a prom since, obviously being bigger girls, theirs must have been awful….then listen to the whining, and backstabbing and catty comments. The part I hated the most…the feature of the party…Mr Stud Muffin. Ah yes ladies, dance around me and compete for my attention and affection, the smell of your desperation is intoxicating.

    Puhlease!! If these lovely women are single, it’s obviously bacuse there may be a little something on the inside that keeps them from being attractive to another. If I were a guy watching this show all of those women would be off my list just because of the way they talk and treat each other, and regard Single Guy as a target rather than a potential life partner. I personally am a lot bigger than most of those women, shorter, with more bad hair days, and never doubt my ability to attract the opposite sex. It must be because my prom was awesome.

    I did not watch the so called “More to Love” show, but did hear enough about
    it to form my own opinion that the women picked for this show did not seem to have
    any self esteem. I’m a full figured female, who doesn’t lack for male attention.
    I’m confident, have a good sense of humor and smile.

    I walk into a place with my head held high….I dress well (which is an asset for
    a full figured female to know what looks best on her) I’m not shy and know how to
    carry a conversation.

    I think the show should have looked for the type of woman I’ve just mentioned..it
    seemed like they just picked anyone and if that is the case, shame on them…because this degraded the BBW.

    Your article was very nice and with the intentions that should have been saught after in this “More to Love” show.

    You are a true gentleman.

    Totally not worried about having a drink at the end of the day. I will admit to dieting and exercising, but as soon as I started seeing my boobs and butt shrinking a little I decided to start eating whatever the hell I wanted again, lol Did not want to risk losing my assets.

    I like that you mentioned men do not choose women based on looks alone, I am thinking that 90% of mix up the variables and the other 10% have been brainwashed to think that others will tease them if they are nice to chubby girls, lol who knows… maybe the guys that are mean to the chubby chicks actually like them and they are just stuck in a school aged kid’s mentality:) lol

    Anywho, glad I found this site. I like what Matthew has to say:)
