Ummmmm.... What? What was that Marie Claire? You said WHAT? You have an issue with Fat people on TV?
Marie Claire, I hate to say it, but I think it's YOU that has a problem. First there was THIS. Picking on all those cute little healthy lifestyle bloggers. Getting everyone up in an uproar about eating disorders. Twisting words and upsetting some innocent girls. Now, you have a problem with fat people. So what do you want from us? Not too thin? Not too fat? And this:
"So anyway, yes, I think I'd be grossed out if I had to watch two characters with rolls and rolls of fat kissing each other ... because I'd be grossed out if I had to watch them doing anything. To be brutally honest, even in real life, I find it aesthetically displeasing to watch a very, very fat person simply walk across a room"
Um... you better be pretty hot shit to make a comment like that. Like, you better put Megan Fox to shame in the looks department!
And this:
"Now, don't go getting the wrong impression: I have a few friends who could be called plump. I'm not some size-ist jerk."
Ummmm hahah... I'm not racist, some of my closest friends are black. I'm not homophobic, some of my best friends are gay.... sound familiar? I can pretty much guarentee, those "plump" people you call friends, as of right now, are no longer your friends.
Marie Claire, I think you need to get out more. I think you need to realize that people have more important things to worry about like their daughter (my cousin) dying of cancer at the age of 40. War, hate crimes, poverty, murder, homelessness, hunger, why there are so many children dying of cancer, why there are so many adults dying from cancer, why so many innocent people are killed in "friendly fire", why children in schools are committing suicide due to bullying. Maybe you need to spend more time in a childrens hospital and less time critisizing fat people who are in your line of vision and making you sick.

Oh wow. She did apologize for it below on the "update" though - and I'm sure right now she feels pretty horrible about it, rightfully so. Sometimes people don't think about what they're saying. Or don't realize how ridiculous their views are until they say it aloud (or put it on an article and have people point it out to them). I think this couple from the picture is ADORABLE!! They're both great actors and have good features. LOVED that actress in Gilmore Girls :).
ReplyDeleteI read that same thing. I was dumbfounded. Apparently the writer is a recovering anorexic with issues. Whatever the case, I LIKE seeing normal people on TV. Makes me feel less like I have to compete with the media's perception of perfect.
