Do you chafe? Have you tried that chaffing cream advertised on telly?

Dont you think fat people who chafe should be encorouged to lose weight instead of the pharmacutical industry inventing an anti chaffing cream?

Chafing cream is not only for those who are fat. Runners and bike racers oft times use it. Also not all fat people chafe. I feel your statement cleverly formed into a question is a bit combative—you think?

Anyway for those interested in something for chafing there’s “Chafing Relief Powder-Gel / Soothing Care” from the makers of Monistat. It is wonderful! Gives a dry, smooth as silk feeling.

One thing I do concur with, which I feel is implyed in your question(able) statement. Pharmacutical companies are at times overly motivated ($$$$) to come up with a “cure all” for a variety of preventable medical conditons instead of there being more inexpensive programs to help people get as healthy as possible and stay that way. But should the heart patient who became a heart patient through a neglegent lifestyle that they might still be living be denied medication to keep them alive? What about AIDS paients? Not all are ill due to negelent lifestyles of their own. The Pharmacutical industry is still researcing, experimenting, and discovering medications for that. So why shouldn't “fat” people be able to receive comforting medication that’ll also deter bouts of infection that can be caused by repeated and untreated chafing?

I too feel that everyone with a preventable diease… “should be encouraged”… to live a lifestyle that will make it possible for them overcome their diease and in turn decrease the need for “inventing” anti-(anything) products.

If I’ve misunderstood your question and the point you are trying to make, please forgive me. I too concur that many people take the simple way out instead of working hard to fulfill their need naturally through hard work and self motivation. Some people just won't give up those Twinkies!!!

Talk to you later—-Tillie

P.S.

Thank you for putting yourself out there. Your statement will probably stimulate people to do something about what needs not to be!
