Women and their weight

8:29 am in I Hate Men, Reason and Logic by catzisme

Now, we all know weight is a sensitive topic among women, and i have to say, i am particularly sensitive towards this topic. However, when sitting with my parents tonight,my father commented on how i had gained weight. Usually, if this was one of my close friends, i would take it to be concern, but, as it was my father, i was, too say the least,upset. This is because, although not obese, my father is most definitely overweight. I wondered to myself what it is in our society that deems it appropriate for men to gain weight, but women must, although having to go through childbirth, stay slim.

When did this rule come into play? what do you think?
