Fat people don't feel cold, apparently It's beginning to get cold where I live, so yesterday I went out for a walk with several layers on, as well as a hat and scarf. If I were standing still I would have been freezing, but as I was walking it was a perfect amount of clothes. On the way back home I stopped at a store, and as the 350+ lb cashier was ringing up my items she remarked, "It's not that cold out, aren't you dying of the heat?" I replied, "No, I feel fine." She then said, "You're right, I'm just experiencing hot flashes so I can't dress that warmly." Sure... it has nothing to do with the fact that you're the size of a small elephant.    Also, do fat women experience worse symptoms of menopause than regular women? I imagine they get hot and sweaty enough lugging around hundreds of pounds of lard, let alone then going through menopause, the symptoms of which are bound to be worsened by their obesity.
