Why TV? Why?

Oh great television why do you give us false hopes and dreams. There are so many different tangents to go off on here it's not funny. But I only want to focus on the biggest lie television spreads; Fat men with beautiful women.

In real life beautiful women don't end up with fat men, with the exception of the rich fat men. But if you watch TV, and we all do, you will see most shows have these gorgeous women with fat men; none of which are rich, and in most shows the male has some sort of mild retardation.

The Simpsons, Family Guy, According To Jim, and King Of Queens are just a few and most popular of the shows that portrays this terrible lie.

What upsets me about this lie is that when I was at 225 lbs. I was blown off by just under fifty women, and not all of them were super model quality. Even now at 175 lbs. I've had women blow me off telling me that I don't stand a chance with them. I guess I could always blame it on the fact that I'm not rich, but if TV was right then that wouldn't matter. Though maybe I am really too smart for my own good, maybe I need to become an idiot on top of being fat. That maybe where I went wrong.

Either way if TV was right and any fat man could get any beautiful woman that they desired, there wouldn't be single fat men.

Life truly isn't fair and remember not to believe everything you see on TV.
