The Summer Vanity Thread

I have really large breasts that get alot of attention, so the added attention my arms get is very, very unwelcome and women especially can be such bitches...sorry, its just hard for me to show off my hard work...sometimes I wish I just had scrawny arms so no one would notice or comment.:confused:

I know about the bitchy women but here's the thing with me: I was fat and invisible for two decades so, though I'm aware of the bitchiness, it just bounces off me. And men who don't like muscles are definitely in the minority, I'm finding. The thing with bitchy women is this: they can be jealous of your breasts (this starts with the first girl who had boob "enough" to justify wearing a bra!), analyzing whether or not they're real (as if it matters... why do women do this crap when everyone knows it's tough to be an A-cup in a DD world) but your muscles are something different. Muscles come from hard work; the kind of hard work a woman who cares about herself is willing to do. I think women who've let themselves go (I was one for a looooong time, remember) feel such women are a constant reminder that they don't care about themselves enough to get off their butts and do the work. Unless you have the body of Iris Kyle I doubt these women think your muscles are gross.

You don't want fat arms, neither do you want "scrawny" arms. Be proud to be fit and fabulous. You've EARNED the right, dammit!
 
**Sigh**
Even with all of my hard work with Cathe, my arms will never have definition. They are big and make me look very heavy on the top.

So I'll begin yet another year of trying to find "blousy" sleeve tops to hide them.

They're strong. But they're not pretty. :(

You sound just like me, I have large arms just like my grandmother's side of the family. No amount of weight lifting or cardio will slim them, although my biceps develop well. I think of my grandma everytime I look in the mirror!:)
 
Tneah, I have neither awesome biceps nor big breasts. Do me a favor and do some proud, well-earned strutting for me!! :eek:

(And, may I add, I'm as white as a ghost, so more skin from me ain't exactly a good thing in the Summer. Honestly, I should have been born in the Victorian era...snow white skin, fancy hair, little umbrella, window drapes for a dress. :D )
 
You guys rock, thanks! I am just so insecure on most days, its sad actually. But I promise to try and "strut my stuff" this summer. I am dieting right now so my arms will look alot leaner, maybe I will feel proud enough to show them off.:rolleyes:
 
Remember: Whenever someone behaves in a catty fashion, be they male or female, it stems from their own insecurities. It has absolutely nothing to do with you.
