11. Billie Piper is hardly large. I think part of it are the outfits she's wearing. Hoodies are hardly slimming. Martha isn't rail thin either ... in fact, really none of the companions are that unnaturally tiny. Donna, anyone? I know that some of the earlier companions tended to be small, but that was usually in height and therefore were really petite in build. And er ... as inspirational as you might want to make this secret be, you make it sound like everyone is shallow and only wants a size zero -- and yes, I am a size two just to get that out of the way before someone decides to think it's a weight issue on my behalf, lulz. Why the Doctor of all beings really care about the body weight of one of his female companions? 'Cos, yanno, I know when I meet potential friends I base them all on how they look. /sarcasm
15. Oh definitely. I mean, technically I would kind of love to be able to live forever but at the same time Jack is cursed to watching everyone he ever loved die without the hope of actually being able to die himself. Immortality would only be bearable if you had someone else along for the ride.
24. Xianghua is awesome. I'm a little saddened that she hasn't been announced for SCIV, but I suppose her story is more or less complete and I'm happy with her ending.
57. If your friends would laugh at you because of your weight, then they're hardly your friends.
11 OP
(Anonymous) 2008-02-10 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)I wasn't trying to make it seem as if everyone wants to be a size zero. Mostly just me, actually. It's an issue for me, and I've struggled with my weight for many years, because I was trying to get down to an admittedly unhealthy weight for by build. And it sounds silly, but when I couldn't get below 110 lbs (I never resorted to anorexia or bulimia, btw, so I'm not trying to say 'poor me I had an eating disroder' or anything) I really did kind of look at the older companions (as well as other females/characters I looked up to at the time) and got upset about my weight. I was small in height as well, so it didn't matter to me if that was why they were so small. And I never thought that the doctor's character was meant to care whether his companions were small or not, because I knew it had to do with casting, but it was still like a kick in the face.
When the new series came along, and the first companion ended up being average in size and build AND the love interest, I just felt really good about it as a result. I'm not claiming that it's good to have this reaction but that's how it was for me.
Re: 11 OP
Re: 11 OP
Okay, fair enough.
Straying for a moment here, 110 lbs is a good weight, so you shouldn't be concerned about your weight. I weigh about 108 and am 5'2 and am considered tiny. So if you're short and only weigh that much you really have nothing to worry about. I used to be under-weight and while I didn't realize it at the time, now I go back and look at pictures of myself from 2001 and can't believe how skeletal I was.
You know Billie Piper did have an eating disorder as a teenager because she was unhappy with her weight, but I think she's gorgeous.
I think everyone has the tendency to look at actresses and models and compare themselves because I know I do from time to time and I agree that it is nice to find someone out there who's considered lovely and has similar build, features, hair, height, et cetera.

...Xiangy isn't going to be in SC4? ;_;
no subject
I'm not sure, but it sure seems like it. I mean, maybe she'll be an extra unlockable character but my best friend loves her and she's been keeping up with everything and there's no mention of her or Kilik or Maxi.
no subject
A-at least we can pretend she's going around with Kilik and Maxi having hot passionate threesomes and wacky misadventures.... right?
no subject
Pretty much. I mean, they had a nice ending, the three of them.
