Fats and the media Prompted by a post that mentioned fat representation.  How the fuck can they bitch and moan about the media promoting unhealthy body image with thin, fit people ("unattainable" right? Young girls are developing eating disorders because of thin people on TV right?) and go on and on about how the media and society are evil and don't listen to the media because discriminashun but in the next fucking breath want more fat people in TV, movies, etc.  Because basing your body image on what you see on TV is totally okay if it's based on a fat actress.  Doesn't that just say that they don't really care about health, body image, or young girls having eating disorders, but about their own hurt fee fees and self centered bull shit.  (Not to mention that EDs are about so much more than body image or seeing thin people on the fucking TV.) It's like they know how stupid they are so they come up with any excuse to justify wanting "fat representation" other than just saying "I'm fat and gross and my fee fees would be better if a fat person was on TV."
