Today, I asked my parents if the outfit I was wearing made me look fat. My mom looked at me and paused for a while; my dad said, "Honey, that outfit doesn't make you look fat. Your fat makes you look fat." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I asked my mom if she thought I looked skinny in my shorts. She jiggled my leg fat, looked up at me and walked away. FML
Today, my aunt said that it looked like I lost some weight. I was pleased with this, since I've been trying to lose some. My mom, for some reason, thought it was insulting. She pulled me to aside to assure me that I most definitely don't look any skinnier. FML
Today, my son was looking through old photos and showed me a picture of myself and asked who it was. When I told him it was me, he responded by saying "But mommy, the lady in the picture is not fat!" FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I gained a few pounds and thought I looked fat. He replied that I looked the same and that I shouldn't worry because he likes fat girls. I never thought I was fat before this. FML
Today, my mom and dad were talking about how if I lost weight, I would be attractive and have guys all over me. My dad said, “That’s exactly what I’m worried about.” It took me a while to realize they both think I’m ugly. FML
Today, whilst trying on wedding dresses with my mom, she told me that I looked fat and awful in the dress I liked. When I told her how hurtful she was being, she told me that I should be grateful that she told me what she thought instead of laughing at me behind my back. FML
Today, while having dinner with my boyfriend's family, his mom told me that it looks like I've gained quite some weight. When my boyfriend told her that this was a rude thing to say, she said it wasn't rude, just the truth. FML
Today, my mom and I were looking at dresses for me at the mall. The cashier pointed out a dress, and my mom said, "She's definitely not going to fit into that. She's too flat-chested." FML
Today, I went to my parents' house. I recently lost about 30 lbs. My mom hugged me and said, "Aww, you're not my chubby baby girl anymore." She then said she wished I were still fat because she missed it. She's the reason I lost the weight; she used to tease and taunt me. Thanks Mom. FML
Today, my grandmother said to me, "You look just like your mother did at your age. Except you're fatter of course." FML

This IS terrible, but a woman should never ask if a dress makes her look fat. There's no way you'll like the answer. If you feel fat in it, don't wear/buy it.

that's what you get for asking that with a male around, but maybe your dad coukd be a teeny bit more sensitive

well, if you weren't fat you wouldn't have this problem. i do believe that you brought this upon yourself. don't get offended when you're obviously fat and you ask someone if the outfit makes you look fat and they tell you what you need to hear. just don't. it makes you look stupid. but hey, look on the bright side! you won't get hurt as bad if you fall off of the top of a building. your fat will protect you!

What an awful thing to say. If the outfit didn't look good on you, there are kinder, more tactful ways to say it. My grandmother taught my mother to say, and I will probably say when I have a daughter, "Well, dear, it just doesn't do a thing for you." That way you acknowledge that there are beautiful things about someone to be emphasized, and suggest that it's the outfit that's the problem, not the person wearing it. If you think your dad is right and want to lose weight, go for it. But if you are happy with the way you look, don't let anyone tear you down. You are only as beautiful as you believe yourself to be.
