Have had more success with the weight opener. Usually gets them talking about whatever diet or exercise thing they are on, (and women are usually on something), then I compare notes to what I'm doing to stay fit, and more often than not we agree to work out together, or she lets me take her someplave fun to cheat on the diet "just this once."

Women: we want to be treated the same as men. Equality! But don't say anything that might hurt our feelings.

If the kind of idiot that believes this stops talking to women about their weight it only make this pick up line better. (Only works on women you have seen before).

"Hey, _________, Have you lost weight recently?" then NO MATTER what she says, replay "Well you look, fantastic, how have you been?"



That's a tried and true method. It's usually an expresss ticket to poon-town.

She should just shut up and learn how to accept a compliment.

This always works for me. It's not what you say, it's how you say it.

I get away with saying a lot.

So they post side-by-side pics before and after pics, and don't expect people to say anything about them?

Or you could skip the current comments and just tell them they were a fat attention whore

Sounds like the social media strategist is just trying to further the gay agenda.

We all know women hate compliments.

If I know the woman and I see that she has in fact has lost weight I may say "Have you lost weight?" and she will usually beam and may or may not acknowledge the loss and say thanks and I will say you're looking pretty good.

The key is you have to know the woman, which means you also know her personality.

I refuse to comment on any woman's physical appearance. This is especially true if she asks your opinion. I just say, "nice try - I'm not falling for that one".

If someone trying to give you a compliment, even if it is clumsily delivered, offends you then you are an a-hole. Personally more often than not I try to take into account people's intent.

From my experience it is OK to talk about them losing the baby weight.

My go-to response for women is, "You look great."

I used to make weekly deposits to the same cashier every week. Big black woman with ridiculously huge breasts. She was gone for a couple of weeks, when she came back she had normal sized boobs. No way that I was going to comment on her tits. So I just smiled when my business was done and said, "Welcome back. You look great." She smiled so wide I thought the top of her face would come off.

I usually try to compliment them by saying something like, "For a fat woman, you sure don't sweat much..."

Works every time...
