At first, I sat up in rightous female indignation (and honestly, wasn't too thrilled with the 'fat women' comment at all) but actually, I think s4ndm4n is probably right. I'm not overweight either but I do know both men and women online can be harsh or overly critical of those who are, where as, IRL, face to face they don't seem as judgmental.
Is there a greater expectation or an expectation of greater misinformation online? No idea. But interesting suggestion.
