Fact: Most guys want girls who are attractive and not excessively overweight, whether the guys are familiar with sizes or not.
Fact: Girls in frum High Schools and Seminaries are fed “Sheker Hachain v Hevel Hayofee, Isha Yiras Hashem Hi Tshallal”. Watching one’s weight and focus on appearance and being attractive to the opposite gender, is rarely or never encouraged.
Fact: Many of the real emesdik type girls, when in Shidduchim, get the rude awakening that what they were taught in High School and Seminary is far from reality. Girls discover that Gashmius figures much larger in their lives than what they expected (based on what they were taught in Seminary).
Fact: Problems and huge disappointments result for many.
