Jesus, the woman needs to be slapped. "The bad decision was and this is the dumbest decision I've ever made in my life it went like this: If a man really loves me, he will not have to love me for my body. He will really love me just for me. ... When did I decide I was a big fat girl?" (source)

I want to slap her for buying in to the whole "guys only like thin girls" bit. Fuck you, woman, and thanks for making it just that much harder to have a pant size larger than a size 6 in a world that's already afraid of fat. FAT IS NOT A FUCKING ENEMY, people. It's not - they're just cells. Some people are genetically predispositioned to have more of them than others. It happens. It's life, people are different, and forcing them all to fit into this cookie-cutter, blonde-is-beautiful, plumped-lips, check-out-my-breast-bone, I-run-16-miles-a-day, this-cracker-will-go-STRAIGHT-to-my-hip bitchtastic mold fucking PISSES ME OFF. I'd rather have a woman who's a size 16 (18, 20, 24, 32...!), will eat ice cream and not worry about what body part will absorb it, who lounges in her pyjamas before she goes to work, who has voluptuous breasts and curves and when she smiles she has dimples in her cheeks than some anorexic twit who can't eat a cracker without hyperventilating.

It aggravates me how people just... accept this. They don't say, "HEY, Kirstie Alley, you're a bitch and a horrible model for young girls." They say, "gosh, I'm so glad she's getting that problem taken care of." ARGH. FUCK! When did alcoholism become less of a 'problem' than weight? When did cocaine use become less of a 'problem' than how much the scale says? Alley could be snorting the lines and they'd say, "Gosh, it's not good that she's a hard-core coke user, but gee, atleast she's getting rid of that problem weight." Society permits people to have self-damanging behaviors (anorexia, bulimia, drug-use, alcoholism), so long as their body isn't fat. As long as your bikini fits like you're 10 years old, as long as your arms don't wobble when you wave at your mom, as long as your ass doesn't wiggle when you walk, you're good. Any of that, well, you're fat, and you better start snorting coke/ starving yourself/ drinking/ smoking and get rid of that problem, now.
