Look At All The Ways Pop Culture Discriminates Against A Certain Body Type. How Wrong Is That?

Fat is not lazy (skinny people can be lazy too). Fat is not unhealthy (skinny people can be unhealthy too). Fat is not ugly (skinny people can be ugly too and ugly is subjective, anyway). Fat is not evil (skinny people can be evil too). Fat is not slow (skinny people can be slow too). It's almost like people are just people regardless of the size or shape of their body. CRAZY, right?

We shouldn't ban people from calling people "fat." Fat should not be an insult. It's an adjective. But you wouldn't know that from how the media talks about fat people and fat characters in TV shows.

And as you'll see in this kick-ass documentary trailer, fat can be f*cking phenomenal.
