Recently, in a large city in France ,
a poster featuring a young, thin and tan woman appeared in the window of a gym.
It said, "This summer,
do you want to be a mermaid or a whale?"
A middle-aged woman,
whose physical characteristics did not match those of the woman on the poster,
responded publicly to the question
posed by the gym.
To Whom It May Concern,
Whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, sea lions, curious humans.)
They have an active sex life,
get pregnant and have adorable baby whales. They have a wonderful time with dolphins stuffing themselves with shrimp.
They play and swim in the seas,
seeing wonderful places like Patagonia ,
the Bering Sea
and the coral reefs of Polynesia .
Whales are wonderful singers
and have even recorded CDs.
They are incredible creatures
and virtually have no predators
other than humans.
They are loved, protected and admired
by almost everyone in the world.
Mermaids don't exist.
If they did exist,
they would be lining up outside the offices
of Argentinean psychoanalysts
due to identity crisis. Fish or human?
They don't have a sex life
because they kill men who get close to them, not to mention how could they have sex?
Just look at them ... where is IT?
Therefore, they don't have kids either.
Not to mention,
who wants to get close to a girl who smells
like a fish store?
The choice is perfectly clear to me:
I want to be a whale.
P..S. We are in an age
when media puts into our heads
the idea that only skinny people are beautiful, but I prefer to enjoy an ice cream with my kids, a good dinner with a man who makes me shiver, and a piece of chocolate with my friends.
With time, we gain weight
because we accumulate so much information and wisdom in our heads
that when there is no more room,
it distributes out to the rest of our bodies.
So we aren't heavy,
we are enormously cultured,
educated and happy.
Beginning today,
when I look at my butt in the mirror I will think, ¨Good grief, look how smart I am!¨

I perfer to be less " smart " myself
wow. I love it!
I must say i agree with EVERYTHING she said!
I absolutely love it
Beautiful is not about size as long as its healthy. It's all about confidence that comes from within. It is poster's like the one above that causes some many girls to feel insecure about their bodies and starve themselves or get caught up in the scales. There are more important things in life to direct your energies.
As a man, I prefer something that has some softness and something I can hold on to.
Chocolate is worth in weight. Especially "Godiva".
A woman's beauty shines through her no matter what size she is.
Sorry I'm not saying you have to be in perfect shape but overweight women are not hot . Not trying to be mean but don't fool yourself !
good point however i don't agree. I don't want to be a fat body. but that's the beauty of this county. I can choose to be a normal weight and you can to be a fatso. god bless america!
12:47 overweight men aren't either but they still think they are!
Mermaids might not have "IT" but most whales don't know even if they have "IT" because they can't find it!
