One small step for chubby girls, one giant leap over skinny b*tches

I am definitely on the Winokur Wave!

I LOVE that Marisa Jaret Winokur is on Dancing With the Stars. It is a step in the right direction! It is so nice to see someone who looks like me on TV. I had almost forgotten that there are women out there like me, my brain has been so over run by starving stick thin shells of women. HOORAY for the fat girls of the world. Between Ugly Betty and Dancing with the Stars I think that we can change the face of TV! Plus it was an added bonus to see the look on Karina's face when Marisa was told she was staying and they were in the bottom 2!

Wouldn't it be amazing if our children grew up watching a TV that was a true representation of the world around them. I know I know people are gonna say that it is not healthy to be overweight. But not being overweight does not mean being a size 2. There are many of us out there that could live off of 3 peanuts and a bottle of water for the rest of our lives and NEVER be a size 2. Besides which some of us are not meant to be super skinny. I know that when I have been thin, if I lost too much weight I looked ridiculous. Yes, be healthy. but don't force yourself to be a size 2.

So HOORAY for beautifully plump women everywhere, WE ROCK!
