I could not agree more, and that is my biggest complaint. I am supposed to fit an "image" of what a woman is "supposed" to be. Honestly, I feel we live in a society so wrapped up in faults, and what things should be, we forget to see them for how they really are. The average size of a female in the US is a 14. For god sakes, why don't I see average women posted every where? Oh wait, that's right....being fat, is evil. Evil to the point where they put stupid ass shows on TV to prove fear is a motivator. That to me is the greatest possible insult, and shows just how ignorant a person can truly be. It doesn't take an Ivy League idiot to point out fear can drive a person to do something. That was proven in the time of Neanderthals If not before then. I am fairly confident that a Raptor picked at the weaker dinosaurs to steal their food. T-Rex probably did too…and they sure as hell didn’t go to Harvard, or Yale, or whatever damn school those people were from.
What it comes down to ultimately is, if we must portray something…why can’t we do it without glitz and glamour? Or fake boobies….and collagen lips? Let’s get some women on fear factor that are REAL…..and let’s get some REAL men and women are those damn bachelor shows while we’re at it. I wonder how many men would be drooling over me if I was standing in a bikini letting my rolls hang out for the world to see! Hahaha, like my cellulite, and stretch marks?!
That is what I love about biggest loser. They show people for what they really are. You see a woman standing there with her tummy hanging out, and you know what, that’s just fine. If you go door to door, you’ll see many women just like her. It takes a very brave person to stand there like that…and rather then have some show chastise them, or make assumptions about what motivates a person, they should pay homage to her for having the balls to do something so few people ever would. Further more…they should have enough common sense not to assume that their methods work long term. I mean after all, we are talking about an Ivy League school.
Blah…once again I am off on yet another tangent. Sorry y’all.
