This, "gays are intolerant of our disgust for them," thing is really getting old.
It's not your OPINION of them they really hate, Hutch.

Health at Every Size.
@28: Those government recomendations, though, are for maintaining a healthy weight if you are already physically active on a regular basis and of average height and body type. You have to realize that for the average person, who doesn't get all that much exercise, 1800 calories is MORE than enough. I don't think people realize just how little food is necessary to sustain a healthy life. I believe very few people choose to actually eat that little and those that do generally just do so by habit and not out of conscious decision.
Obviously the solution to getting healthier is more exercise and quality food in moderated proportions, but not everyone lives a life that allows that. For desk jockies, the standard 2000 calories is actually too much.

@92, sounds like you keep ALMOST getting around to verifying your results some way other than anecdotaly but NEVER do. Wonder why that might be.

I think I can sum up what I was trying to say without all the LANGUAGE!
We are responsible for ourselves and only our selves.
A standard relationship is made up of 2 selves. One isn't "responsible" for the others actions but they ARE responsible for their own.

You're simultaneously repeating and denying my, (admitedly minor), point.
A relationship is made up of two people.
But we can only control our own portion of that relationship. Trying to control how the other person reacts to our behavior isn't the point and can have negative consequences. We can only actually control how we act towards that person, and how we react to that persons loyal and disloyal behavior.
Now, our partner will sometimes abuse our trust, or act in a way we don't appreciate, but we never owned that person. They weren't indentured to us simply because we perceive ourselves as having acted fairly towards them. If they do abuse trust, the only real options are to choose to live with that abuse, or abandon the relationship, assuming no truce is possible.
I'm starting to sound like Mudede. I think i should stop.

@73: Exactly. Each member of the relationship is 50% responsible for it. We are responsible for how we act and how we REact and both of those each make up a portion of the whole that is one relationship.

@68
Well, let's face it.
Our actions ARE directly responsible for how our partners will act, whether we are men or women. We are half of that equation.
WOMEN aren't 100% responsible, they are more like 50%.
