Plus Size vs. Thin Size

ABC & FOX are weightiest networks! Recently they decided to not show a lingerie commercial involving Plus Size models for Lane Bryant saying it shows "TOO MUCH FLESH" which brings up the point...you allow half-naked dancers and Victoria's Secret commercials on your network where almost all the women are size zeros, twos or fours but when it comes to women with more meat on their bones it's a NO.

I am a plus size woman myself who has recently started eating healthier and working on my weight and I find this very offensive. The truth is plus size women are usually healthier then the women who are skin and bones. Men also prefer women who are on the larger end because truthfully they have more to love on especially when it comes to having boobs (that aren't fake or too big for their frame) and a butt. It's not that all plus size women are fat, but most of them do have thicker skin and a bigger overall frame. The measurement for plus size women and skinny women can not be measured the same way at all because they are completely different figures.

This is another reason that some girls starve themselves and have eating disorders because once again the idea of "thin being in" has been pushed into the public eye. This is promoting smaller sizes and that being thin is the way to go.

*Advice: Stop worrying about the size of women! Everyone is different and if you look around there are just as many if not more plus size women out in the world these days then there are skinny ones. Also plus size women need lingerie to make their men happy just as much as skinny women do so unless you want to lose a great advertising sponsorship show the ad and embrace the curvy women in the world!!

Go Back to Slytherin

Some people are just plain RUDE!!! I do not understand why people decide to dis others because they don't agree on the same thing OR because they do different things. If someone hasn't done anything to you I don't see any reason why you should be bashing them. We all do it at some times or judge someone before getting to know them but after I became best friends with two people I had judged before getting to know them I have made it a goal of mine to not be so judgmental.

Today while I was on the Mizzou Portal (which allows incoming freshmen to talk to each other and discuss different things) I saw a post that truly boiled my blood. This kid Kenny decided to hate on his roommate, who he knows NOTHING about and bitch about his situation all because he saw a picture of his roommate. All from this so called "picture" he has decided that his roommate is a virgin and loves Harry Potter so therefore he hates him.

This is another case where someone is being judged too soon and I feel sorry for him. I don't know who he is but I stood up for him because nobody deserves to be dissed like he was. For all we know he could be the tightest kid in the world and Kenny could be missing out because he is too big of a douche. I try to give everyone a chance but once you start bashing someone you don't know that chance is gone.

*Advice: Kenny needs to switch rooms so he can find a different roommate and everyone else can stop listening to him bitch and complain about how "bad" his roommate is. That way he will be happier, his roommate will have a better roommate than Kenny ever could/would be.

Jersey Goes South

It's official...Jersey Shore is headed to South Beach in Miami, Florida for Season Two.

Personally I feel this is a bit ridiculous due to the fact that the show is based off these guidos & guidettes "reppin' Italian" on the Jersey Shore. The so-called "fame" the cast now has has clearly gone to their heads. If it were up to me I would tell them to either stay at the Jersey Shore or take a hike. Mike "The Situation" is already cockier than ever and if he's not careful his head is going to explode...and it won't be due to any female activities either.

Even with this change of location, I can guarantee that I will be partaking in the watching and Tivo-ing of Season Two. Jersey Shore has to be one of the "best" guilty pleasure shows out there that makes you laugh out loud at how stupid these tanned drunken bimbos actually are. It also makes me appreciate my life and what I have even more. I will continue to watch this stupidity and be entertained by the ridiculousness of the Jersey Shore...even if it is in Miami. I would suggest a name change but South Beach Shore doesn't roll off the tongue as nicely as Jersey Shore does.

*Advice: MTV...grow some balls and put your foot down. Your television station is already going downhill and has been ever since the ending of TRL, which you were known for. If you continue to let these "Italian" kids run the network it won't be long before it's GTV.
