I just came across a group that called itself the NAAFA: the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance. I don't know if this is only a parody of the NAACP, but if it isn't, what's up with these guys? Too lazy to run?
Maybe there should be an NAANSPW too: The National Association for the Advancement of Nerds, Skinny People, and Wimps. And don't forget about the emo guys either.
I don't know what the world is coming to these days.
This is not a joke. I heard a woman on the radio today speaking up for fat people. She said the U.S. population needs to respect "size diversity".
I find this absurd and offensive. She's trying to group fat slobs in with African Americans, Latinos, and every other minority.
Being fat is almost never genetically determined. The obesity trends in the last 10-15 years are striking, and there is nothing genetic that can explain it. People simply eat too much and are too inactive.
That, my fellow Americans, is not 'size diversity'. It's good old fashioned gluttony and laziness.
