ORIGINAL: WetHotGoddess Why is there a double-standard concerning obesity as opposed to being thin? actually, I would actually like to answer that with another question: Why are your major clothing manufacturers using models who eat half an m&m for dessert, and feel the need to get breast reductions, so they can stay "rail" thin? You want less of a double standard... let's see Chistian Dior put on a fashion show that has both slight, and husky models throughout the show. quote:
Who is the majority, after all? Truth be told? Obesity is actually running rampant in the United States right now, and if obesity is defined as anyone who is 20 lbs or more above their target weight, I guess I'm fat, too. (even though I'm 6'3", 232 lbs.) quote:
Why can the blacks have a music award and a black Miss America, but the other nationalities can't? Why are there music awards for blacks , and tv stations for the black and nothing for other nationalities? Again, you are misinformed. There is A Latino Music Awards, usually held in Rio De Janiero, but it has also been held in Mexico City, as well as San Juan, Cuba. I live in south Florida... we have 4 (count em... uno, dos, tres, cuatro) thats right, four channels through Brighthouse cable that are "other than English speaking" channels. Three are spanish/latino, due to the consensus of folks living/migrating to Florida, and one is a learning channel, where several languages are spoken, including italian, german, and portuguese. Oh, and to touch on the question of the Black Miss America contest, yet not one for other nationalities... Darlin, darlin, darlin.... answer me this one question, first... how many anglo saxon white american women have won the Miss Universe Pageant? (enough said.) Creole
