Mauritania

Now that I’ve lost four pounds, apparently I will no longer be desirable in Mauritania, Africa. But Jessica Simpson on the other hand, may be the crème de la crème amongst the women there.

If you haven’t heard, in Mauritania fat is IN. Men with fat wives are admired by other men. It shows that their woman is well taken care of and a sign of wealth. Didn’t we have that standard here in the US a century or so ago?

They force feed young girls and fatten them up like livestock to make them appealing for the men who “want their women to be pleasing to the eyes and touch”. However, it appears the men value being fit and find it a turn-off if they catch their wives walking for exercise and to shed a few pounds.

No exercise and fat is admired? I’m IN. I’m packing my moo-moo and will catch ya’ll later. I hope they have pizza there. Jessica Simpson even wants a piece of the action in Africa. Don’t think she didn’t plan this.

I kid, and I feel bad for what the press is doing to her. It’s absurd. All because she went from a size two to a four and now she’s fat. If she were living next door to most guys in America they’d be watching from their windows to catch a glimpse every time she left the house. I’d love to see the figures of Marilyn Monroe and Jane Mansfield in vogue again. Maybe because I’m built like that, but that’s what women with curves look like.

If Hollywood rallied together and looked healthy in spite of what the fashion magazines are doing I think we’d have happier people and healthier young girls. And when the women are happy, generally the men are happy. Besides, the men I talk to like their women to be healthy, curves and all.
