What a myopic, delusional little moron she is.

I hate that woman so much. There are not sufficient words to describe how much I loathe her. I disagree vehemently with every horrid opinion she spits out on TV.

She is an ex reality TV contestant who makes a living writing and spouting what often seems like the worst things she can think of to get a reaction from people.

leemack: Clearly, there must be people who know and even like her if she continues to get acting or entertainment opportunities. That said, she seems to be just an opportunistic witch, but she's no one. I wouldn't be able to pick her out of a crowd, and am pretty sure I've never laid eyes on her sorry puss. With any luck, she'll be relegated to the "archive" annals in the Trashbin of History, or nothing sterilizes like fire.

I think she's one of those people who is so annoying that its made her a teeny weeny bit famous...ish!!! The sort of person everyone loves to hate. I couldnt give a rats a*** whether she's put on weight for a tv program or not. But its interesting to hear her views - nasty views lol!!!!

This isn't about Ms. Hopkins, the prat, (whom I've never heard of btw) but it is about a similar issue.

I was having a conversation yesterday with a friend mom of mine about the newest Scooby Doo animated movie. The curse on each of the Mystery Inc crew is to lose something they love. Fred lost his van, Scoob and Shaggy their appetite. And Daphne? She gets disgustingly fat! She is turned into a size 8. Gasp! Yes, you heard it. A size 8. Fat and ugly size 8. Seriously! A 27 inch waist is blubbery fatness? Nothing like fat-shaming children! I was LIVID. That is going to ruin some preteen girl's self-esteem. My kids won't be watching that.

But fat-shaming is the thing. It's acceptable and popular! How wonderful! (Yeah, that was sarcasm.)

(Quote truncated, not because of objectionable content, but to pull out points I'm speaking to directly.)
It is about Ms. Hopkins, the prat, and those who are just like her that make up the 'culture' that does fat-shaming as a hobby.
As long as people like her are supported, it will not stop and the nonsense is perpetuated.

IMO thats a difficult one. On one hand we all want to lose weight and be slim because we look better and feel better, on the other hand we dont want to make anyone feel bad about themselves if they're fat, we tell them its ok and acceptable. Sometimes, its difficult. We had a new employee in my office recently and she's a "big girl". It soon became apparent to her that I was on a "weird diet" and she commented that I didnt need to lose weight. I told her thats because I eat as I do. That I used to be fat and gross. How fat she asked..... thats when it became awkward. I was as fat as she is, but couldnt say that.

Just sayin' - discussing this media person is just making the problem worse. If we ignore such media things they will truly go away.

I really hope she doesn't procreate....

I don't think a head-in-the sand approach would work here. We say nothing, everyone else supports it. Nothing changes. Only when enough people get angry enough about it and voice that anger will anything change.



There is a difference in being concerned for someone's health and fat-shaming. A huge difference.

A size 8 is not obese. But when normal healthy sized girls are treated like they are whales, THAT is a problem.

I'm not sure who contests this idea. Lots of people disagree about just what foods constitute rubbish, but just about everybody agrees that a person's diet can make them fat. And that more of that bad diet will accelerate that process.



First she'll have to prove that she is a good proxy for "anyone." The most she can do is prove that someone can do this.

She would be pressed to prove she's even human, imo. I'm not believing it.
