Yeah, and it's especially bad because it's behind her back. Guys tell me I'm fat all the time, but I'm friends with them and I'm obviously not and it's to my face, so I'm fine with it.

Basically he joked with his mates that she looked like a beached whale.

And I think he can go ***** some sort of small spiky inanimate object for a comment like that - even if she was a size 6 and looked more like a beanpole than a whale it's still not nice.


oooohhhhh lol...

okokok...

if i were in his place, i wouldnt joke behind her back... i would say it to her straight... come on, its a joke after all!! and if the poor baby gets annoyed, too bad..

1] dont do it, no one deserves to be called fat, whether they are or not, if you dont have anything constructive to say, then keep your damn mouth shut

2] whats done is done, apologise and beg for forgiveness, you got me, beg, thats right on your knees
:biggrin:

3] and ladies dont take what guys say to heart all the time, were men, were born to crack jokes its just sometimes certain minorities of the male population crack a joke about the wrong subject matter and cause problems, so please ignore such mistakes and lets all get along:wink: :smile:

Lol I get teased that I have a big pot belly and backside but I don't mind, maybe because I'm petite and would rather be in on that joke rather than be called too skinny all the time. If I was already overweight though and sensitive about it then yeah, I'd be offended, even if it was a joke.

i'll just go and jump off the nearest bridge then...


And swim back to your blubbery brethren lol.

Only joking, I mean obviously if you are a little chubby or overweight, he was insulting you.

If he's so insecure that he has to slag off others behind their back then he must have a small penis. If his verbal attack was completely unprovoked (e.g you didn't say anything rude about him) then he needs to be told to shut up if he can't say anything nice at all.

I think I'd be offended no matter what size or shape I was...any comment like that to your face or behind your back just goes to show he doesnt care whether or not anything he says might upset you. not a nice person im(humble)o

if a guy likened you to 'a beached whale' behind your back, totally as a joke, would you be annoyed?

not annoyed just hurt i mean yeah sure it was a joke but i would probably be insulted and hurt, i would have to cause immense physical pain or humiliation to get back at him tho
