Why are there so many divorces in America?
Why is everyone so overweight in America?

I could tell you, but I'd rather explain it to you.
My theory on this, is that we have social im-balance in America.

Overweight-ness started because of the advance in Technology, some say... thus creating less time out harvesting berries or whatever they did back in the Barbarian days. Yet, when I think of Japan, their Technology is very advanced, yet their country is not nearly as overweight as ours. So we look at the dietary habits of each culture, and notice that Japanese people (what do you know) eat mostly fish, rice, tea, and the occasional burger across the street I suppose. But in America, the people are overweight because there are fast food restaurants on nearly every block, and families take their kids out to eat there, who grow up to become just as overweight as their parents (more often than not).

Guess what people, we are human. Us females, from what I can tell, like pretty and clean spaces for ourselves, and we don't want to hang out in a place that's disgusting. Would you? ... Since some of America is becoming more and more dirty, some of the females get depressed and don't put out the way the males really want,and vise versa. Thus we have social im-balance. I am not talking about race, (ignorant bastards) because all humans and animals have brains and emotions.

Since most people are just lying around on their couches instead of eating healthy and going to the gym, that decreases our number of healthy-looking, lean, energetic, and attractive young women and men. Right now I have the problem of only being attracted to guys who aren't attracted to me, and attracting guys who I am not attracted to. I think that if more people were to exercise and eat well, and actually give a little thought into their looks... then maybe this awful predicament would broaden into a bigger spectrum.

I also think this could maybe somewhat be the reason for divorces. Some people don't feel the need to find their true image or their true self anymore, so they settle for someone they don't want, and regret it later on in the marriage.

If I could tell everyone in the world one thing.. it would be this.

If you just ask yourself WHAT, NOT who, in the whole world it is that you REALLY want... and go for it... then the WHO part will follow along afterwards, I think. wink
