Been there

Yes, I think pretty people get most of the breaks. You consider if an overweight person applies for a job with all the qualifications and a pretty person applies for the same job but she/he doesn't have the required qualifications, the pretty person will get the job. They get the better raises, and get better treatment.  BUT I do know that ALL people whether they are pretty, ugly, overweight or what ever they look like ALL have their own personal problems. In this story where the pretty girl goes and have plastic surgery just to keep her man, that is wrong. He's not worth it! I would have left him because no matter what you do to better yourself , hoping it would make him stay, it won't work. Those kind of men will always wander. So get rid of him! There are better men out there who will treat you a whole lot better with dignity and respect!

 Not to have an argument with you but i completely disagree with your statement about overweight people getting treated differently.---Although it may be true that at first glance we tend to look at the slimmer (Fit) person first, but if an overweight person comes in for an interview and has all the confidence and personality in the world, walking in like they know they are  gorgeous and any  one would be happy to be with them( and dress appropriately) i would be more drawn to the overweight person then the Fit Club.  I don't believe with our society the way it is that we put as much emphasis on weight so much as style how they carry themselves, how great they get along with other people. Now a lot of overweight people come into a building with a miserable look on their faces, and have the attitude of " you better not tell me anything about my weight" and want special treatment because they feel they don't get the same breaks as skinnier people and everyone owes them something. Now you know as well as i do NO BODY is going to want to be around someone who has a" I hate the world" attitude. Monique from the show The Parkers is a perfect example of what i am talking about. Any body can pull of being big, it just depends on how Gracefully you do it.

That doesn't mean people have to accept it.   Sure, it may be true, but in Rebecca's case, she is also pretty, so why doesn't she just get out.    She must like the abuse or else she wouldn't take it.
