Apparently 75% of women in my locality feel fat. Do you feel fat?

Author: I was just reading my local paper today and a study, commissioned by a "natural healthcare company" which promote a weight loss product, had some staggering results:
* Almost half said they feel self conscious [about their weight]
* 9 out of 10 women admit to having "fat days"
* 53% said they are uncomfortable being seen naked in front of their partners and 49% say they are uncomfortable undressing in a communal changing room because of their body shape
* Only 25% believed they are the perfect weight, 75% believing they are overweight. 77% of those blame lack of exercise and poor diet for being overweight
* 59% believe slim women tend to succeed more in both their personal and professional life
* 4 out of 10 say they diet constantly
* 81% said the ideal dress size is between 10 and 12
What do you think about this? Do you think it’s an accurate reflection of women’s opinion in general? And most importantly, do you think that these women are not overweight (defined as "more body fat than is optimally healthy") but are made to feel that way by our culture?

mainly what people see in the magazines when they see all these skinny women makes people in society think that they are fat and over weight, but they don’t realize that they are perfect just the way they are. infact most of the guys i know like women with meat in their bones.
society makes the young girls feel they need to be size 0
i have never felt fat.
