I wonder if the thing about not reading text really is a gender-linked trait? I wouldn't be surprised to find out that it is... I bet there's a study about it, somewhere.
And you're right, that it seems fatness is considered the one thing no one wants in a mate... unless you go to the opposite extreme and end up with "chubby chasers", and we had that discussion the other night, about feeling fetishized.
I wish you *had* replied to that guy you're talking about... I would have loved to hear his response! As an aside, I have dated more than one guy who, while being slim himself, could still pick me up with ease, so clearly, the problem definitely lay with the poster of that ad. ;)
