Fat girls are easy

Note: This response isnt intended to offend anyone, its just to show you a possible outcome

I just gonna tell you guys, complaining to the station, might be a waste of time, no offense. Heres my reasoning:

The morning show I listen to is one of the more vulgar ones in the metro detroit area. They are also the highest ranked morning show. On the show, they will talk about sex, drugs, and other more 'adult content'. Its the belief of the radio station that you have the right to choose your own station you want to listen to, and some people choose to listen to the adult content. The point is one day someone called and left a very angry message on their voice mail, saying they say the word Penis to often. The morning show thought the message was funny (which through the guys unintelligable comments, and the fact he swore maybe 30 times through it, but was offended by the word Penis), and callers started calling in, everytime starting by saying Penis. Now its a big joke on the show, now saying penis every time on the show. So essentially the guy who wanted to get the word removed, now made it the most popular word on the show.

Nevertheless, Id just say I have been offended by topics before, and I choose to tune out for those segments. If I am that offended by something, Ill find a new program to replace it. In the end, they obviously have a market for their more 'edgy, racy, and offensive' topics, and a letter might just make matters worse.

Just my two cents, and I hope you are able to find more quality programing

I'm not being insensitive here, but these things are said because more often than not it's true to a certain degree. In today's society with body image being so heavily focused on, someone who views themselves as overweight and unattractive may love the attention from guys who are just looking to get laid. In the end it's two adult decisions. The radio station was simply bold enough to state it.

Don't take it personal, ignore it and enjoy some music.

Thank you!

And honestly, why is it that women who might want a one night stand automatically have low self esteem and no respect for themselves?? Frankly I find that an insulting double standard and I hear it most often from other women.

Exactly.

i find it annoying that they are basically saying:

thin = pretty
fat = ugly

I'm thin, but i wouldn't say I'm that pretty <_<

as for the study, i wouldn't take it seriously. Studies can be skewed in any-which-way.

I feel that this could have some truth to it. Many larger women tend to have low self esteem, and think of sex and intimacy as a way of acceptance. On the other end of the spectrum, there are the larger women who don't even want to be seen naked, let alone have sex.

I can see this being fact, though. Larger women who lack confidence (any woman who lacks confidence, really) is more likely to let herself be used than a confident (and in this study confident = thin, which is NOT true) woman.

I am so angry! This was a part of a morning radio show a few days ago and I am still fuming and I just have to rant a little. The topic was a new study that came out that said that fat girls are more likely to give it up on a first date than "pretty" girls. So the suggestion was if you were looking into a dating website for a one night stand, to choose a larger girl. They even went on to say that eager beats pretty anyday. I can say that I will never listen to this station again, even though the music is better, and I will choose a more family friendly station like MIX. Oh, I can feel my blood pressure going up again.:mad:

Seriously - who cares. Someone once did a study about whether drunk monkeys clench their teeth harder than sober monkeys. You can write a study about ANYTHING and find statistics to back it up.

I spent 30+ years as a plus-sized woman and five years as a normal size woman. I've been approached by everyone for just about everything, and I have yet to let a research study sway my decision making about whether or not I wanted to say yes or no.

The bottom line is - If someone approaches you for a one-night stand and you're not interested, say so. It's as simple as that.

I'm not really sure why it's so offensive to discuss a "study" on the radio...

I'm offended because it was bad science journalism.

Yeah, in my experience, there's no other kind.... OK, that might be a tad extreme, but the stories I could tell about total misrepresentation of research to get the sexy headline.... !

Vote with your feet. I complained after the BBC radio 2 news broadcast aired a story about a "celebrity" divorce as their lead story then referred to the Brisbane floods as a clip at the end of the news. Hundreds of people (my parents included) lost their homes in that flood.

The news director's response was that they air the news that gets the ratings. That was the last time I listened to them. News is supposed to be about information, not ratings!

So, vote with your feet, and tell as many people as you can, why. I have, and have converted some lifelong listeners!

We will hear this all the time.....personally when I was single, I had a new date every night if I wanted....and even a day date and a night date....I never lacked in the amount of gorgeous men that wanted to take me out.....it was only a choice few that might see my hot sexyness all size 18 of it in my sexy lacyness. Don't let it bother you so, it is like saying all blondes are dumb....Here is another thing to think about....those men....the ones who seek "fat" women to sleep with because they are "easy"....well food for thought. It takes a level of "interest" if you know what I mean to "perform" so to speak.....guess what....yup you got it........goes to show, even big girls are HOT HOT HOT!

*sigh*

Just another way of judging "bigger" people. I honestly do not believe your weight determines if you'll "give it up" on a first date or not. I think it depends on the person, their date, and such - NOT on their weight. It is ridiculous to me that people would base it on someone's weight, but...

If it were me, I would probably contact the radio station and let them know that after hearing this (I'm not so sure it is appropriate for radio?) you won't be listening to their station anymore.

I would disagree. It's not judging "bigger people". It's judging women. All of us. There is a bizarre tautology going on in all the media that men prefer easy girls, only they don't really, cos you wouldn't want to marry one, women are too fat...no, too thin...OMG SHE HAS CELLULITE!!!!!! Oh why can't we celebrate real women with CURVES....but only size 6 curves, of course, diet, don't diet, women should work and stop freeloading, mothers who work are the source of all evil in the world..............

The media basically hates women.

I LOVE THIS!

Just the fact that they were talking about finding girls willing to "give it up" on the first date says A LOT about the low self esteem of the men involved in this study.

AMEN!
