Very true

I've only just read this comment and I have to agree. I maintain that this type of scenario usually affects women that are emotionally vulnerable, but in terms of looks anyone can be affected. Just because a woman is beautiful, it doesn't mean she's immune to being used and abused, in fact attractive women often have a harder time than anyone when it comes to relationships.

The types of men you'll find with overweight Western women are usually lower class and not that attractive themselves.
