Did you want people to only latch onto that part of what you said? Or the whole post? It's not weird. It's GC. You've been a member since 2006. You should be used to it by now.

Exactly.

I was kinda wondering the same thing, but if not I think it's awesome that they are putting their time and effort into something like this.

Just because the majority of people are overweight does not mean it's normal or healthy to be overweight. If it was your job or life dream to be Miss USA I'm sure you could devote your time to having their figure too. But everyone has their own priorities and there isn't anything wrong with that too. But don't act like women who are completely healthy are somehow incorrect.
Get over yourself. You need to watch the MTV episode on overweight people. There was a girl on there who was into pageants.... she starved herself by eating only cottage cheese all day. It may not be normal or healthy to be overweight (even tho NORMAL could mean anything nowadays), but it's definitely not normal or healthy the way most of those pageant girls take care of themselves.
