I've had so many conversations with women who were completely nude in the locker room at my gym that I'm completely used to it. If I had a dollar for every time one of the other ladies in my aerobics class struck up a conversation with me while they were totally nude in the locker room I'd be rich by now. But at the same time I will say that she should have asked you first if you would be embarrassed to see pictures of her in her underwear. And if you then said yes, it would embarrass you, then she should respect your feelings and not show them to you. It wouldn’t have bothered me personally.

I mean we see it a lot on t.v etc. but a real person you barely know?....kinda creepy.Maybe she likes you...a lot.

So, let me see if I have this straight. She wants you to SEE the fat she no longer owns? Reminds me of a faculty meeting I once attended where prizes were given for one silly thing and then another. Just for fun, you know. Well, one prize was offered for the most unusual item in any attendee's purse. The winner? A woman who produced her son's umbilical cord, which she carried in her purse at all times. um, her 14-year old son! She deserved the prize, I thought. For reals. oh, I hope neither your formerly fat acquaintance nor my umbilicalious (?) colleague are reading Holy Mama tonday! Oh, Lawsie. So, let me see if I have this straight.

Tue, 06 May 2008 01:31:52 +0000 http://holymama.org/2008/05/etiquette-dilemma-at-kickboxing/#comment-6771 This post is hilarious Holymama! I actually had a similar experience--in my speech class as a matter of fact! The professor gave the class a 10 minute break between actvities one night. My partner for the night, we'll call her Jan, had been talking about how much weight she had lost while in Weight Watchers--80 something pounds. I said what was expected in such a situation, "Wow! That's hard to believe! You're sooooo small now. Congrats!" I was thinking the conversation was over. But it sooo wasn't. She whipped out a picture album from her purse. It was very disturbing to say the least. There were fleshy pictures. And yes, she was very obese at one point. But honestly, can't we just take their word for it in lieu of the actual photographic proof!?!?!?!? Bah! It must be an epidemic. She wanted to do a speech about her diet success. I persuaded her that it might be a bit boring........okay, I might have said boring, but I REALLY meant it would be disgusting. She thankfully took my advice. Yay! And all that to say, I know how you feel!!! This post is hilarious Holymama! I actually had a similar experience–in my speech class as a matter of fact!
