Tri Delta - Fat Talk Free Week

Honestly.. unless you're gunna work with ALL media companies, this will never happen.. sorry, if you haven't noticed, media did this to women? The advertising companies are usually run by men, and products don't get sold and money doesn't get made unless people feel inadequate to others and buy things to 'fix' this. There's no money in people being fine with who they are, and America runs off how much money it can rake in.

Everyone should come to their senses and start doing what they love and stop caring about looks and ideals.
I pity those who cannot get that into their heads.

Thank you. There's no reason we should "accept" an unhealthy and unattractive lifestyle. Social standards exist for a reason: to compel people to choose socially acceptable lifestyles. I could never shower if I wanted to, but I would be ostracized, and rightfully so. If you think people judge you for being fat, then here's a shocker of a suggestion: Stop being fat. My buddy just lost 35 pounds through exercise and diet, and wants to lose another 35. Be like him. Strive to better yourself

This video is talking about achieving a HEALTHY body image. It is not saying, yeah it's good to be fat. It's saying that the way you look shouldn't determine how you feel about yourself as a person.

Being fat ain't healthy. If you aren't comfortable saying it's good, why not admit that it's bad? You might live in some fantasy world where noone is judged upon their looks, but that simply isn't the case in the real world. People are judged upon their looks all the time, and there's a good biological basis to that. You are supposed to care what other people think about you. Newsflash: if you're fat, we think less of you. Stop being fat. Put down the cheeseburger and hop on a treadmill.

But should it be that way? Should people be straving themselves and harming themselves physically to be "beautiful"? I personally suffer from anorexia, and so yeah I know being fat is unhealthy but so is throwing up and starving yourself to fit the definition of beautiful. Grow up and stop being so fucking shallow.

*le sigh* Anorexia is not the way to be healthy. Eat good food and excercise. It's not fucking hard. What the fuck is wrong with you women? It's either gorge and purge or just plain gorge. LISTEN UP: BE HEALTHY, AND YOU WILL BE SKINNY. I'm not shallow because I'm disgusted by slovenly pigs and bags of skin and bones. I'm normal. be normal.

So stop being fat.

I couldn't believe that people would actually rather be *hit by a truck* than be fat. That's just...appalling.
Just another reason there needs to be a change.

The thing I hate the most is when magazines have empowering articles about weight and body image and such, and then continue to have impossibly, ridiculously thin models scattered through the rest of the magazine. What kind of message is that sending to women?
Anyway, I loved this video. Fat talk must end.
