    R.I.P Rhonda :(

    My apologies for reading and posting so seldomly on these boards. I knew Rhonda only through Dimensions, so my knowledge of her life and personality is very filtered. But when she lost her son, I felt her devastation, even here. Her "recovery" was surprisingly fast and I wondered how real it...

    BBW or SSBBW, size classification

    Either way, the evaluation is external. Granted, people can't live in a vacuum, but the most important opinion should always come from oneself. External labels should not determine what rights and privileges one has in society.

    From today's NY Daily News

    Here are a few more articles about it, including a link to a much larger image. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=558925&in_page_id=1770 http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/6-23-2002-20915.asp And apparently it's not her first session with him...

    Measurements?

    The closest I ever came to a standard ratio between weights and measurements actually arose from an old Roaman's clothing size chart. Back when I was a lad, they had something called "Women's" sizes, which as nearly as I could tell were Misses Sizes + 20. The sole purpose of the distinction...

    Name a FA character from film or TV

    Well, there was that interesting "Nicki Fifer" story arc on "The Drew Carey Show". The writers made Drew a little more complicated than any human being has a right to be, but I'm sure a lot of FAs were watching then (and not for Mimi's sake, either).

    "Big Girl (You are Beautiful)" Music Video You Tube must see

    Here's another "positive" song I ran across (Sorry, no video). I'm still trying to make up my mind about it. (It doesn't help that the artist, Markulus, sounds like Al Yankovick). http://music.metafilter.com/1081/Save-the-Fattest-Girl-for-Me

    Fat joke come backs

    A friend of mine told me about her encounter with a little kid a a public pool. When the kid said the predictable: "You're faaaaat!" she turn to give the child her full attention and gushed a bit: "Why THANK you!" That locked the kid into a pretty serious thought loop for a while.

    Help me I'm (not) sinking!

    Back, way back before the daffy ages of BMI, electrical impedance and skinfold calipers, somewhere around 1978, there was a much-touted method, called "hydrostatic weighing" for determining how much of one's body mass was fat. It was based on the ancient Archemedian principle of displacement...

    Size Positive Celebs/Role Models

    I always thought Patrika Darbo was a bit of a light-weight (sorry, pun not intended), UNTIL she did the Roseanne TV-movie. Amazing! And Nancy Wilson's sister, Ann was the one I watched. I just wish she'd been a little braver way back when. Don't forget Dawn French's appearance in the...

    Does anyone know where Ambrosia is??

    Ambrosia's career was pretty much pre-world wide web. Her husband was Russell Williams at one time.

    Your User Name

    The name came before I joined the Dimensions site. It's partly that thing that happens when you get older and realize the more you know, the more you don't know. Then too, I really distrust people who are passed off as "experts". ("Specialists", or maybe "authorities", okay.) And finally, it...

    New member with offbeat fantasy

    A lot of us FAs have a guilty fascination with people struggling against their limitations. Some like to fantasize about immoble partners, less I suspect than would like to actually live the fantasy. Others enjoy the huffing and puffing but steer well clear of any actual debilitation. The...

    BBW or SSBBW, size classification

    In the dim, dark time when fat women had to get their clothing by mail-order, "Super-Size" originally referred to clothing that was beyond the standard size range of Lane Bryant and Roaman's. If you were over a size 46 (26 now), your choices dropped dramatically. That's around 300-350 pounds...

    Feeder's/Feedee's

    Angel, I was going to chime in here with some sage old advice but you pretty much have it covered. Your post should be included with the "mild" ones. I can only add emphasis. Serious feederism is often a power relationship that can easily get out of balance. It's often compared to BDSM but...

    Do you....

    Bar o' plain old soap for everything, even my hair. Anything else is just throwing money away. Washcloths, yick! Nasty, germy things!

    G-d, the Universe and Everything

    It could be that some Catholics simply don't want to allow the Goddess enough legitimacy to be compared to Mary but there are also genuine thological technicalities that don't permit Mary to be considered as a goddess. The technical problem is that Mary is not worshippable. Mary is a...

    G-d, the Universe and Everything

    Hey, I spent five years on an RCIA core team. I still do dismissals. (Scarey, eh?) Preliminary congrats to your husband! One thing that's always amused me: The Creed requires one to believe in Pontius Pilate, but NOT in the devil. And yet at baptism, the catechumen must renounce old Nick...
