Is britain the cellulite capital of the world

absolutebounder

I have just been on a tour over europe which culminated in a few days rest at Icmeller (turkey). OMG i have never seen so much flab and cellulite in my lfe. If the Japanese whaling fleet turned up in Marmaris bay they would think all their christmasses had come at once. Women clearly well over 20 stone with G string Bikinis :eek: Topless grannies with their navel between their nipples sunburnt to hell:eek: tattoos stretched out of proportion by flab:eek:
Now we are not just talking women here. men with shaved heads a tattoo up their neck and a bit of tacky gold chain and a belly nearly reaching their knees seemed to be the norm.:eek:
The other thing I noticed was nearly all had northern accents.
Why do the brits present such a poor picture of themselves on holiday?

Well, as a Northerner i can say that we are not all fat and chavy!! Thank you very much!!! How insulting. I have been down south and there are just as many chavs as up North!

Anyway, they are going on holiday to relax and unwind...they dress the way that they have been brought up dressing i suppose. Its not how i or anyone i know would dress but i suppose from their backgrounds it is just normal.

It is just a small minority of people who choose to holiday in these destinations, i'm sure people realise that not all women in Britain are fat, chavy and ugly, just as we know that despite the rumour not all Eastern European women are stunners!! My grandad is Czech and i have been there numerous times and i see just as many fat ugly women with cellulite as gorgeous model like women! And believe it or not, even skinny models have cellulite...i was a model a few years ago and quite a few of the painfully thin models had a bit of cellulite.

If people believe all these stereotypes than they must be very narrow minded.

Well said Venus. Some of us northerners are rather refined *sniff*

I know what you mean though. It's not nice seeing pink British people on the beach or strolling around with very little on.

I've just returned from France and most of them were slim and kept their clothes on, even though it was 30c.

Who cares what other people look like? They're entitled to wander round in the sun without sweating to death, just as you are. I can't bring myself to get worked up over the appearances of others, life's too short and too interesting.

Yes, of course all us Northerners are disgustingly fat, ugly, poorly educated morons who have never travelled beyond Manchester other than our annual holiday to Turkey where we swill beer, get into fights and offend lovely, attractive Southerners with our hideous bodies. :rolleyes:

Come off it, absolutebounder. I despise Northern-bashing - it's not big, or clever. It's pretty much akin to racism, so leave it out.

I am not bothered about what you think really, some people like to fill in their pathetic lives by bashing others...obviously she has a few insecurities that have lead her to take it out on others. You should feel sorry for her. I do.
