That's pretty funny, but I have to wonder...why lie? In the past 5 or 6 years I've been anywhere from 235 to 165. Is there really such a difference in vanity between the genders? I'd like to think not, but evidence seems more often than not to support a divergence of the vanities.

I don't...I just don't tell anybody. It's nobody's business but my own (and my doctor's) how much I weigh.

The linky-link doesn't work for me, but yeah... I used to.
I weighed 220, but most people didn't think so. I looked about 180, I guess. I was embarrassed that I'd let myself get that big for my frame, even though a lot of it was health related. I got down to 125 and had no problems telling anyone so and what I weighed before. And I don't care that I gained 10 lbs back. I'm happy, healthy, and went from popping out of a size 18 to a 4/6/8 depending on the store. Who cares? Rhaevyn's right. It's no one's business. The ridiculousness of putting it on your driver's license is beyond me. They've got your picture. Duh.

The Day I decided last year to loose weight I went on the scale with my clothes on. I use that make and compare to what the scales says now. SO I am kinda fudging the numbers for a bigger loss. So I guess I lie to myself.
So its wieght +20= Actual weight. Kind of like the how many guys has she slept with formula. Something like women's number X2, and for men their number /3 |

I don't lie about my weight. Sometimes I might give an inaccurate number, but that's usually because I haven't been on a scale recently.
171 lbs, by the way. Though oddly, when I stepped on the scale this morning it told me I weight 153. Sure enough, the battery's dying--cause I certainly didn't lose that much weight overnight!

I wonder how many women in the skit said their real weight and weren't shown.

Pictures are a useless way of identifying someone... my passport picture is about 6 years old now, and looks nothing like me... hair styles, hair colors even eye colors can be easily changed... weight can easily change so I'm not sure why that's even asked... Height can even be altered by shoes... I've never been measured for how tall I am anywhere other than a doctor's office when I was in high school - -I just know how tall I am...
Other than using it for access into a bar, what's the point of a picture on a liscence anyhow?

Last time I weighed myself I was 123 lbs, I don't usually lie about my weight, I see no reason to. Then again I don't get asked that on a regular basis!

I sent an email to a friend last week about this, told her that the average female lies about her weight by 20lbs, and asked her if she did the same. She said, "I don't exagerrate truth. It's never come up where I would tell someone my weight, you know? And it is nobodys business and would tell even if they asked"
I bet a lot of women feel this way. |

Hey, Ive known girls who look amazing at 120, and Ive known other that look amazing at 155 (oddly, my weight). And those are just the ones for whom I know the weights. So it really doesnt mean much to me. I have scored points before while asking though... I guessed 120... She laughed and said more like 135...
