Episode Fourteen: F.A.T. a PSA

Inspiration for this post, an article in Yahoo! Shine:

According to a recent article (linked above) in Yahoo! plus-sized women on average make less than their slender counterparts.  Here in the Curve Zone, we embrace the voluptuous figure and a hearty appetite.  Sir Mix-a-Lot's "Baby Got Back" is our anthem.  So we'd like to take a moment to send our salute to the hard working women of the world.

"Plus Sized" ladies of the world we would like to call you F.A.T.  That's right, F.A.T.- Fabulous And Talented.

So please, put down those amphetamine laced diet pills, pick up your forks, and be proud.  For anyone who has ever had to shop for pantyhose and found they did not carry a size for your frame, we salute you.  For anyone who has had a bosom too ample to be properly supported by the average bra- we believe in supporting our ta tas ladies and will rally behind you in the quest for the holy grail of D (or larger) Cups.  If you've been stuck at the gym on the elliptical runner next to a size 2, we feel your pain.   

Raise your cheese laden nachos high ladies and repeat after me.

Nacho Angel, my first image edit. 

-My intelligence, productivity, and work ethic are not determined by my weight

-I will not give in to the temptation to stop exercising out of shame of my body

- I will threaten to eat anyone who dares to pay me less than I deserve

-I actually have not intent to eat anyone, that's just gross...

-None the less, I will make them fear the F.A.T. chick, fear I say!

- Diet Cokes and Chimichangas are a ridiculous pairing

-While nutritious food is always a good idea, the act of eating is in no way deviant, immoral, or unnatural.  Eating is a natural thing.

-I do not envy Kate Moss's figure because she looks like a forlorn coat-hanger 

- I will continue to work my hardest and each day I will wake up and embrace my curves

-I am a F.A.T. woman, and I am proud.

The curve zone would also like to salute our skinny sisters.  We apologize for every time you go on a diet and we eat cookies in front of you out of spite.  Sorry.
