Why is MFP selling ad space to "BBW Romance?"

So I was checking my exercise entries and I noticed a banner ad for BBWromance.com. I thought that was a little hypocritical for a weight loss site to sell ad space to a BBW singles site.

I also hate that the internet knows everything that I really like thick girls. Lol.

    its not mfp that choose it..its a google or a google type ad engine. what it does is takes a look at your cookies, or searches and invades your privacy and caters ads to the person using the computer. facebook does it too

    I don't mind what kinds of ads there are as long as MFP stays free, it's all good!

    Which is why I do not have a facebook account. I also try to use google as little as possible. (He says as the BBWromance.com ad appears again.)

    All of my ads are about food, and I'm not talking healthy food. Well I did have one about weight loss surgery. I guess my ads are telling me that I should go ahead and eat the bad stuff, because I can always have lapband surgery...lol.

    One thing i have learned from reading through threads on this site is that women don't really like to be called "thick"...lol

    You are a very smart man! To me, "thick" means a bit stupid, and I would be really insulted if someone called me that. It is probably a cultural thing (I'm in Australia) as I had never heard "thick" as a replacement for "overweight" till I came to this site and forum.

    ..and also, in the UK 'thick' means stupid, so I guess you really don't want to say that !

    To help keep MFP free....click on one of the ads...doesn't matter what one, just click and then click your back button. That's how $$ is generated to keep MFP free.
