HOW DARE YOU CALL ME FAT
Mars from Chicken Dinner Candybar does her regular Fat Love Friday and includes Marie from Agent Lover.

Marie is put off by her inclusion on a "fat" list and tells Mars so.

Mars offers to take it down. Marie refuses. Instead, she proclaims on her blog, "oh haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaale no!

Chaos ensues in the comments about fatphobia, body acceptance, fashion sense (or the lack thereof), and kissing-up commentors.

Is Marie brave or is she overreacting?

(I'm in the comments and I know Natalie [the 'overreacting' link], so I am slightly involved in the wank aftermath. It's pretty obvious which side i'm on.)

Badass broads don’t bother with negative body nomenclatures, because anyone who is anyone would never identify them with the CHUBS and FATTY words in the first place.

So, if you're cool enough, people won't notice that you're fat?

Funny how that doesn't seem to work for Queen Latifa, who is about the most awesome person in the world.

I think she means to say that fat people who truly have self-esteem live in self-denial.
