Another way of convincing him- fat goth bois don't look good in vinyl
pants,
but eating food that looks to many Americans as if it came from a
Klingon
diner is very cool indeed.


Hehe! That's one of the funnier suggestions I've seen for convincing
people
to keep slim. Is "bois" a typo? Or is it like "rulez"?

Kinda. A lot of Goth women call their guys 'bois'. One thing about many
Goths- a lot of them see thinness as an ideal. And a lot of the guys look
real cute in leather and vinyl pants.

If women have been gotten to exercize and eat right by appeals to their
vanity, men who are fashion conscious can too.

Anyway, I don't think it is true that not eating vegetables makes one fat.
Doesn't it have to do with caloric intake? I thought that in some
cultures
vegetables are rarely eaten, yet the people aren't fat -- I'm thinking of
Eskimos and Tibetans.

But they also don't eat tons of meat, either, especially in comparison to
their work load. Most US meat eaters are driving around in SUVs, not
plowing the field with oxen or catching dinner through ice-fishing.
