skinny fat btich

I don't usually comment on my blog what other people write about on theirs. I didn't even do it when one of the them wrote a nice little post about me. These my rants about being angry with the world, other people have theirs. And since this blog (unlike my Polish one) is not involved in discussing any big social issues, I don't see why I should make it more than it really is: a rant scrapbook.
That being said I have observed an interesting thing on expat blogs written by girls (namely those being hot on Korean boys, but not only). That is there is, after all, a difference between how European, Asian and American girls see the world. The thing is it is not only something I see on blogs. Its an everyday thing, here in Sinchon and back when I lived in Cheongju. Its the way we see ourselves.
Let's start with the fact that we, European girls, are very obsessed about our image. In different ways (you won't see a French girl pimp herself out like a Russian girl), but still... but what's more we demand of other girls to do the same. So when we see another girl 'that needs working on' we don't beat around the bush. Sometimes in her face sometimes not. It's mean, not nice and frankly sometimes they could just shut it up. When I worked in a bar in London, I pudgy looking Cokcney chick told me that I am a fat Jewish bitch (I'm neither, just so you know). Yeah, it kind of stung. But than again together with my middle school gang I teased one of our colleagues just because she was bigger than average in our class. The thing is this doesn't stay in school. Its true, once we grow up we don't really tease and swarm in someone's face that their body's not ideal. But we do, oh so eagerly, behind their backs. Its are European hobby to comment random passersby. And most of the time it concerns their body shape. I see that Korean girls are pretty much the same. With that difference that they'll tell you that you could skim off some fat here and there 'if you want to find a Korean boyfriend (do I?). Now that I said that, I guess only adjummas would say that to a complete stranger. The American crowd... is there some sort of over the top political correctness going on? I remember vaguely reading an article that calling someone 'fat' is a VERY very bad thing. One of the blogger girls was almost eaten alive for saying that a women she saw with a Korean man had 'a face of a toad'. Mean, yes. Not very polite - sure. But most of write harsher (although usually more constructive) things about the Korean society or just about random strangers. Bah, talking of which Korean netzines are known to go way over the board with such stuff.
I'm just wondering out-loud how far are we allowed to go? Is the stuff I wrote about the Russian girls too much (but hey! they agree! at least the ones I know)? Is calling someone a toad on your personal blog being mean and stuck up? So how much CAN we write on our blogs? Aren't they supposed to be diaries? Or are they so public by now that you have to think twice before you have a little rant?

It's 1.30 am and I just finished two reports due by midnight. Clap your hands and say 'Yeah'!
