is not the way to post a discussion, as everyone here on earth has the right to be who or what they are. We can either be skinny or fat and that can be because of medical reasons. I know of people that just eat and eat whatever they like and never get fat. Yet some people only have to look at a cream cake and they put massive weight on. The only thing that matters is that the persons heart is in the right place and not to be judgemental of others of thier appearances or beliefs. Anyone agree?

I guess they consider themselves ohysically perfect then but mentally, I'm not preety sure though!;) It is not right to make judgements on people whom we are not familiar of, especially when we don't personally know them. As long as they have lived the right way, there is nothing for us to be bothered by them. We should all live together harmoniously and accept what others are..

Harmoniously is a nice word that appently does not enter into the narrow minded brains of some, so we have to do our best in educating and trying to persuade others to be as nice as we are.lol

I agree with that wholeheartedly, Deeeky. It's not only one's appearance that comes under the hammer, but their culture, their habits, their affluency; just about everything you can name, and it appalls me. I would never question a person's reasons for what they do, how they feel, or how they look. I think it's totally out of order, and a very cruel habit. I go with you on this one Deeeky. Live and let live. Never question another's rights, for you may be the one in the wrong, not they, just because they are different to you. Brightest Blessings my friend. :-)

Too right! If only everybody else in the world thought that way, it would be a much more peaceful place. Brightest Blessings, my dear friend.

The world would definately be a much peacefull place but I am afraid that things are not to change, as by looking at past results that have happened during all the conflicts around the world, you would think over time over time we would have learned by our mistakes.

Live and let live is a good way of saying that no matter what our make up is no one has the right to say how we should like the way we look. It's what's inside that counts.

Yes I agree with you on this one. To many People now go by looks and things like that but they never actually see the Person inside, so well done for this Discussion

Thats right, they are complaining that models are too skinny but they are only providing a show for others that are also of a skinny nature and there is nothing wrong in that. I think that they should even things out a bit and let a larger type of model show off clothes in a different light for others to see as well.

Yes i agree with you too, its not right or proper to judge anyone because of their looks or appearance. We are here to make friends and not to criticize.

I think we have to accept people as they are not as we want them to be, hatred discussions are against mylot rules and you can report anyone making fun or criticizing (in a nasty way) people for their looks.. as for beliefs; sometimes people here provoke retaliation by posting controversial issues trying to enforce their beliefs on others and they get what they deserve for it.. unfortunately the retaliation sometimes are very nasty.. I just end up avoiding much of the controversial issues in mylot as people don't seem to accept moderate or reasonable views and they seem to have one-sided minds :(

Having a one sided mind is not the way. There is always two are maybe even more sides to a discussion and that is the reason for this kind of site. A decent thread will always show the good and bad sides to most of the discussions that are posted here at myLot and most of the time it evens out on all sides of the arguments.

Unfortunately there are too many 'shallow' people in this world who judge others before judging themselves. Many of these unfortunately people are to be pitied because of their lack of knowledge, forethought and common sense. I agree with you if someones heart is in the right place then that is what they shall be judged upon, not whether they can fit into a pair of size 8 jeans! Personally people who are judgmental against people with disabilities, disfigurements etc are not worth knowing!

Having so many 'shallow' people as you put it in this world, is probably the reason for so many conflicts and innocent people being hurt due to their narrow minded attitude towards others.

Hi deeeky, I agree, we are all people with thoughts and feelings. I really don't care very much what other people think about me anymore, I used to but what's the point, I'm happy being me, why would I change for other people.

Well said Deeky,I don't understand why some people target their criticism and anger towards only one set of people. It is very unfair and mean. I hate it when users here go on and on ranting and cribbing about things they aren't perfect in either. Every single person has a right of expression and way of living. We are nobody to judge them in any way.
