I know that weight and women is a touchy subject, but if you call out for attention, you should be prepared to receive it.
Perhaps it's my upbringing, 3 sisters going through puberty while my mother went through menopause all around the same time, but when dealing with females & their weight the only thing you can do & not get your **** chopped off for it is support them. Suggesting ways to lose weight, even if she brought it up, is calling her fat in girl speak.
It has nothing to do with me being a "feminist", although I'm for equal rights for lady folks, & more to do with the fact that the women in my life have always been sensitive to their weight. I learned early on when dating my wife that suggesting "she eat less calories than she burns off" when complaining about her weight was a good way to get my **** chopped off.
Its not your fault that you don't understand that giving suggestions to overcome her weight problem is the same as calling her fat, but it essentially is in girl speak, especially when done publicly on facebook where EVERYONE takes what anyone else says in the worst possible way.
