My entire family is plump, and I am no exception. I think girls who
are pretty and slim have many advantages because most people admire
them.
For example, if a pretty girl needs help, many boys will scramble to
help her, but if an ugly girl asks for help, most people will turn a
deaf ear.
It's very unfair for ugly girls - they don't choose to be ugly. It is
more important to make friends with kind-hearted people than beautiful
ones, as beauty is only skin-deep.
