Warning: Bitterness ahead…LONG RANT. Bitchiness.

Skinny = Status (In most English-speaking countries. Where I live.)

Women who are skinny get paid more than women who are not.

It’s practically a sin to be curvy in Hollywood. No. Not practically. It’s a sin.

You can try all you want to say that you’re proud of your curves, that you like the way you look, that you’re a BBW, that you’re going to revolutionize the fashion world to suit plus size women, or you could be on Big Sexy and tell me about how pretty you think you are.

I don’t believe you, not for a second. You’re just as self-loathing as the rest of us, perhaps more as you try to feed yourself and the rest of the world your delusions of self-confidence. I know you’re lying.

You still want to be skinny. You just find the process of getting to that point to be too difficult, too arduous, and perhaps you’re a bit lazy.

Is it right that skinny = status? Is it fair? No. No it isn’t. Should the world be a more accepting place, loving creatures big and small? Of course. But that’s not the way the world works and as much as we would love to feed ourselves platitudes and convince ourselves that it is, it really isn’t.

We all have to suck it up and live in this world.

And by the way, Big Sexy, if you’re that large, if you are seriously that large, you have HEALTH PROBLEMS. Being a bit chunky, or a bit thicker, likely means you’re just allowing yourself to indulge and eat more. There are weight RANGES that one can be in. If you are outside of that weight range, if you’re either too high or too low, then you are unhealthy. If anorexia isn’t glamorized, why should overeating and being that large be glamorized? The fact of the matter is that neither should be, yet one is viewed as a disease and one is viewed as giving the middle finger to society.
