Your entry reminded me alot about this entry: http://tinyurl.com/yjn47zg
Race, age, homosexuality etc…are all traits that aren’t a choice. That’s why making fun of those things are more frowned upon. Fat is completely a choice, and something you can change. Same as lame clothes, a crap job or a bad haircut.
Don’t eat so much, even without exercise, you will slim down. Don’t feel like doing that? That’s a choice. Fat is a glaringly bad (and to those who aren’t fat, a) confusing choice. That’s why fat is still funny. The show has a no holds barred type of humor. This upcoming joke is no different.
Whoa! Audra, you might want to rethink that “fat is a choice” mentality. People are “fat” for a variety of reasons, many of which aren’t the result of eating too much or exercising too little. My Aunt went into hospital at 437 pounds. She lost 280 pounds of fluid in less than three months on heavy doses of diuretics. As soon as she stopped the diuretics the weight started coming back, even before she left the hospital.
Audra – “a glaringly bad..confusing choice”? Really. So clearly you don’t know anyone who’s gained weight through various health issues, which is far too common. At the end of the day, weight is number – HEALTH is the most important aspect of a person’s life. I think being rude and disrespectful is also a choice, and clearly, that’s what you’ve chosen.
And yup, I’m plus sized, but I also work out, walk everyday and eat well. I’ll reserve judgement on the episode until I see it. NPH is great, and who knows where they’ll take it!
Fat people need to stop with the ‘medical’ excuses. I was overweight with all the classic things wrong with me that cause weight gain. I got off the couch and exercised and ate RIGHT (not necessarily less) and amazingly I lost the weight AND the medical conditions. The very few that have a medical problem as a legitimate excuse find the rest of you fatties who use it quite offensive.
