Man tells daughter to lose weight if she wants better chance at 'male attention'

quote:
"My daughter is very overweight (5'3 and about 200 lbs). She always talks about how she wants a boyfriend, and she has never had one," the father, who is 52, wrote.
quote:
"She was saying that it's unfair that all her friends have boyfriends and get attention from guys," he said, "and how guys are [expletive] who never give her the time of day."
quote:
Deciding to impart some fatherly advice, he suggested that shedding a few pounds could do his daughter some good. "I told her delicately that it could be helpful to try losing some weight," he wrote, "that unfortunately people are often shallow and that could be something that would help her get male attention, feel more confident, and also generally be healthier."
quote:
Unfortunately for him, his daughter didn’t take his advice well at all. "She yelled at me about how ‘all guys are the same, even my [expletive] dad’ and stormed off," he said.
Despite his daughter’s reaction, the father insisted that he meant no harm.
“I was genuinely trying to be helpful, and I knew it would be a sore spot but in my mind my intentions were good,” he wrote. “She has no genetic predisposition to being overweight (nobody else in the family is), she has no condition that I am aware of, but rather she eats quite a bit and does not get much exercise,” the author added.
“I have tried to encourage her to come for a run with me, and to give her healthy food options, but have never explicitly spoken to her about her weight before this.”

Some Reddit users slammed the dad for being insensitive and hurtful.

Dads aren't supposed to be dads anymore, which is why this dude is getting so much hate.

My sister gets fatter and fatter each time I see her.
She will always shame me and my other sister for actually eating healthy and dieting and all that with a true crab bucket mentality. Brings the religious angle into it - "God doesn't care if you are thin"
At the same time my sister always complains she can't find a man. Then when we suggest it might be because of her out of control weight - "I want a man who will love me for who I am! Love me for me!". Yet at the same time has ultra high standards. So you want a man to love you for you, yet won't love a man for who he is - you put all these standards that a man must meet for him to be worthy for you.
Ask yourself - "Would I be attracted to myself?" If not, then you need to do something about it.

Sounds like either the dad was right or the daughter needs to change the talent pool she is choosing from.
200lb and 5’3” sounds like a Sir Mix A Lot special.

Rule 5 Do not let your children do anything that makes you dislike them

He’s right. Life will be difficult for her as a fat chick. It’s better that she learns that now before her fatness becomes permanent.

Overweight and has a foul mouth... wonders why guys are paying no positive attention.... makes you wonder what other endearing qualities she's presenting.

Daughter probably had really high standards. She's the kind of chick that only has face shots on her Tinder or shots with her and a group of hotter women

So this is the opposite dad from T.I.

Maybe her dad can hook her up with the 6'3", 360+lb running back from the thread on the MSB

If dad doesn’t give her the hard truths straight than no one will.
Posted on 11/7/19 at 6:55 pm to Landmass
If she insists on being a stubborn fatty about it she’s just gonna have to settle for a 300+ lbs country baw... Or a black dude
