Article on "Fat Faye"
Is it cold in here?:
??
People have made fun of Faye for not being skinny. Pen-elope in 754, even if she was just following up on something Faye said. Dora in 170 (and Amanda's remark in the same strip). According to Dora in 751, Raven made a few remarks. Dora called her "squishy-ass" in 118. Eva in 795. I'm not counting 740, because they were roleplaying. 998 might be considered honest feedback, since Faye brought up the subject of bottom-bouncing. The teasing got utterly vicious in 936 where the robots are manipulating her dream.

Faye also comments on Dora's weight. She comments on her breasts.
There are jokes about hair, about clothing...
it's almost like jokes are made throughout the comment about controllable physical appearance in all directions and people zone in on those made toward's Faye because of society's attitude to weight.
Weird, huh?

What I guess you meant is "Honestly if someone is overweight then they shouldn't complain if someone criticizes them."
So someone who is overweight shouldn't be offended if someone calls them fat? Even though that is extremely rude and hurtful? What if somebody called you a pimply-faced loser or pointed out that your beard was stupid or your haircut or clothing choice sucked?
All of those are, to an extent, choices you make about the way you look (acne CAN be caused by bad hygeine.)
This isn't me insulting you, because I don't know what you look like, but nobody has the right to degrade anyone's appearance in front of them. It isn't "advice" it is "being a fuckface". It is only advice if they honestly ask you for it.

well I agree with this but this isn't really what I was getting at.
What I'm talking about is the person who has 6 suppers a day and weighs 400 pounds and sits in front of the TV and tries to protest to the entire world how everyone should be ok with it. It's more spoiled attitudes I'm getting at and this could go for anyone who has an issue in their life. There's being a fuck face and then there IS honest criticism. Those who get enraged at the honest criticism need to really grow-up a bit.
My point in short, this woman said that Jeph said Faye was fat [which he never really did anyways] and this woman flies off the handle about it! It's that kind of attitude that strikes a cord with me.
And judging by her other blog entries and her blog title it honestly seems her ENTIRE BLOG is devoted to bashing people who are "prejuduce against fats". I'm sorry but I don't have anything positive to say to people who won't take steps to correct their own faults and place blame on other people to cover their own tracks.
Honestly? She's fat.... it's true.... if she doesn't wanna hear that from people than she should do something about her weight problems.
