Barbara Reiner

Met an amazing woman yesterday her name is Barbara Reiner.  We had an insightful conversation on hiring practices around weight and size.  Her speciality...well is a lot web design, management among a few.  I explained my approach to Sizism and that it is the last acceptable prejudice.  She asked me was I judged based on my size.  I of course answered in the affirmative.  I have realized something amazing.  When I was little people would say (which I still don't believe) "You have a beautiful face..." "You have beautiful skin..." and so I have realized at now a ripe old age of 30 something that the dot. dot. dot. was....if only you would:
1.  Lose weight
2. Were thinner
3.  Lost about 100 pounds
4. Take care of yourself

It took me quite a while but now I see, they were complimenting me.  Go figure.
