Discrimination Against Overweight People

My old suitemate inspired me to make this as my final project freshman year. When she broke out of her shell and felt good about herself, her personality really began to shine. Everyone we lived with started to see past her "big girl" exterior and opened up to her more. We had creative freedom wth our final project so I decided to look at various aspects of the discrimination against larger individuals.

this was well done and informative. I hope you got an "A" on your project.

If I was your teacher, I would've given you a 100 :-)

I'm in agreement with most of what you said. You praised Shallow Hal and that was a vile piece of pandering and a big slap in the face to people of size.

i am frequently shocked and appalled by fat "people". lets start a program for free laxatives for fat people. they can crap their way to becoming real again.

My opinion, overweight people lack self control. I'm emo, and I do my best to follow the skinny, boyish stereotype. Granted that's very difficult with a natural 34D cup size, but I lost weight and I feel good. Plus, by saying it's ok to be fat, we're jeprodizing the health of future generations

Fat people shouldn't wear swimsuits at the beach.

I have a eating disorder and have lost 50lbs, but I will never judge others on their appearance. some girls are beautiful curvy or larger, some are beautiful normal, and some are beautiful thin. My friend who is a good 70 lbs heavier than me, is one of the most beautiful confident people I know. coz you know what makes us girls beautiful? confidence! I just wish I had it myself but meh. thumbs up for the vid anyway =)
