I don’t know if you read DearCoquette, née Coketalk, but I’ve always thought what she had to say on the matter was pretty smart:

Same stats, but probably still a lie about figures. I’ve dated 3 girls who were 5’0. Two were about 105, one was about 112. These women look about as good as the girls I dated, better than the girl who was 112, actually. Maybe these girls are just wider and have more girth. I guess the height/weight ratio can be…

The body mass index says you’re well into the realm of obesity. I mean, you weigh more than an average sized male who’s a foot taller.

In American culture of 2015, 5’1” 135lb is pretty normal. We are, however, the second most obese country in the world, so our standards are skewed.

Or just be more mindful of what you eat and get yourself firmly in the healthy range...

Uh...sorry, but I don’t see any expression of privilege here. Is there some level of adiposity you need to be in order to get the “true fat” trophy that lets you call yourself fat?

A girl who is 5'4 and 126 (my high school sweetheart) still has some extra change, so 5'0 and 135 is definitely rotund.

5’2 - 133 is pretty chunky

Why does not wanting to fuck a fat person have to be for reasons like you “don’t want the stigma to rub off on you,” or because you don’t like your own body, or because the media says it’s “not cool”? There is nothing wrong with not wanting to bang a fat person because you simply aren’t attracted to fat people, or…

Well somebody 5” tall, generally, would weigh 100 pounds - that’s 35 pounds over a “healthy” weight - which is more than 1/3 of his/her weight. I think it qualifies as fat, if not obese. Now, 195 at 5” is damn near morbidly obese - where it is a health issue and morbidity ensues. I know it’s politically correct to…

How one looks depends on frame/muscle mass, but 135lbs at 5’0” is overweight according to the BMI.

You listened to Goblin. Did you go out and punch women in the face?

Yeah make this an emotional argument based on your emotions. Which are so strong and thus just.

Not sure the list of names that you have offered is comparable, all of these people excluding Yusuf Islam actually did something that caused their visa to be revoked. The notion that we can deny visa based on thoughts and art created is absurd. The drug use histories of Amy, George, Nigella is what cause the denial…

There is a weird glee that people get from dragging out bad opinions people had in their younger, dumber days. Like, I was extremely “problematic,” as they say, as a youth, but thank God I didn’t have a twitter account to write all my dumbshit opinions about women or whatever. Then I grew up! And it’s fine! I…

So this article contains no information about feminist groups abroad actively lobbying their governments to deny Tyler entry to their countries?

Just a heads up, it’s not going to rub many people the right way if feminism starts focusing on censoring and policing individual speech.

I’m growing more and more uncomfortable with the seemingly increasing progressive notion that people’s backgrounds must be fully delved into and punishment doled out for things they did years and years ago, retroactive, permanent punishment. It strikes me as so anti-liberal.

but also, she was 11 when you were 18!

The outrage over this is exhausting. Predator? Jerry Sandusky and Jared were predators. A slight age difference? Not the same. The age of consent is what, like 15 in some states? The handwringing is just annoying, get over it.
