    Do men really fancy women like her in the programme? All big fake boobs, bleached hair, tan like old leather and looking like (in my opinion) a trout?

    Is this really what men want???

    I am of the opinion that they do.....but not for long.
    Surely they are the 'disposable razors' of the gender? If they are not, I'm in big trouble :rotfl:

    thats a pointless arguement, the first one bout getting hit by a car for not looking is down to someone not concentrating on where they are walking not down to abusing their own body.

    You cannot bring arguements about disabled kids and the elderly to the table because what i am on about is people that SELF HARM via drinking, eating, smoking so maybe you want to actually think about your arguement before coming up with such silly counter arguements!

    Will,

    I am trying to point out that you cannot legislate for the individual without legislating for the masses! As I stated, doctors do endeavour to encourage people in need of treatment to help themselves, but when people pay taxes, they have a right to expect some treatment in return. All workers contribute to the NHS, why should we not get treatment?

    Where do you draw the line? How do you determine 'too fat' as opposed to 'a bit chubby'? You can't use BMI as it is deceptive (Mike Tyson at fighting weight would have been classed as obese - you can tell him), and the fat index does not take into account personal metabolism.

    Even doctors can't always make that distinction, and if you want to talk about silly arguments, have a damn good look at your own, and the impossibility of implementing it with any guaranteed level of fairness.

    OK, those who continue even after diagnosis could be given schedules to work to (i.e. George Best should have been sober for two years prior to his transplant) but other than that, everyone deserves medical help.

    Rant over - can we agree to disagree on this one?

    trust me i know about BMI, but you DO have to legislate for the masses in a country of 60 million+ and then make individual case identification.

    Also i never said that people didn't deserve their help but what i was saying was that if ur fat for example u goto the bottom of the list untill either you have done ur time waiting or u lose the weight.

    and my arguements weren't silly thankyou and yes we will have to agree to disagree

    I think it's safe to say.... NO!!!!

    Only that's what SHE thinks men want... the same way as that vile man thought he was what all women wanted.

    Orange tan, cosmetic surgery, huge muscles, bling... is this really what women want??? :)

    Very good point dudleyboy (and worthy of my 1000th post as a reply!! :D ).

    This woman wouldn't go near that Tango Man unless he was the last man on earth and even then he'd need to have a rum & coke in his hand...! ;)

    I thought it was hilarious the way he boasted about how the girls flocked round when he showed off his diamonds .... as if that was something to be proud of....lets face it, its the only way they'd be attracted!

    Shallow..... he should be on drought alert.......
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
