Last night, on our second ever club visit :scared:, I was unfortunate enough to recieve a couple of compliments. Yup, unfortunate.
The two gents in question were both from cultures which value the more "upholstered" look. Now I like, and am comfortable with my curves. However, to have someone flip you over & say "mmm, let me see that big fat ass" comes as a bit of a shock to a western woman! :shock:
It was obviously not meant as a derogatory comment- Or I would have followed through with my "dead man walking" quip (OK, he was about 7'2 and had the kind of build that causes partial eclipses- but I was very close to his nuts.)
Guy # 2 made similar comments, although by the end of it he turned into an annoying prick, so I won't go there
And to cap it all- there was another guy who was virtually "worshipping" my arse- this, by the way really weirded me out :shock:
Guy #1, with whom a great time was had (mainly coz we laughed so much- theres another story to be had there) was stumbled upon in the bar at the end of the evening. I picked up a stick of celery, and said "look, now I have a complex!" which provoked a conversation about how he'd meant it as a compliment, and how big butts were coming into fashion again. We parted friends. I let him live.
Anyway, Im not really sure where Im going with this, other than to ask if anyone else has ever been on the recieving end of a "compliment" of this type? Luckily, I have the hide (and the ass, seemingly) of a Rhino, so apart from the occasional glance in the mirror today coupled with the odd "it's not that fat, is it?" comment, I'll live to fight another day.
Are there any other examples of cultural differences you've seen? Im waffling. I'll shaddup & let you ponder............
However- I dont think the word "fat" should ever, ever find it's way into a compliment :giggle:
