Just kidding. Discuss. |
Just because some asshole made a tv show or sat on his news show and spouts off stories of this nature, and a few 10's of thousands of stay at home moms cry about said fat peoples' hero status while they eat bonbons and online shop at 2PM every day, does not mean that "Americans praise fat people that lose weight." TV shows and TV news does not = real life. That is like saying "Why do British people only care about soccer and awkward sitcom humor" and "South American people only care about scantily clad women with huge breasts, drug wars, and decapitations."
