otf_wank's thoughts on weight, stop sharing your thoughts

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.)

	By the way, I didn't say this last night because I didn't want you to feel bad, but fat wank almost always falls into the "unfunny" category. (I've certainly been guilty of helping that along in this post - sorry, everyone.) (Reply to this)(Thread)

	eeps! I thought the wank itself was not serious enough for unfunny, but there you go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It's not the wank itself. It's the fact that it brings out everyone's teal deer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh man this. I've had to physically stop myself from making crazy long comments of unfunniness a couple of times and still managed to make a few less funny and more long than they should be. Ah, fail. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I don't know what you mean. I found these comments hilarious. I was even reading out some of the funnier quotes to my husband. (Reply to this)(Parent)
