About Ms. Simpson

jhameiaI would like to put my voice out there and say:
SHE IS SO DAMN CUTE NOW.
On the left is a publicity-airbrushed picture of her while she was doing Dukes of Hazzard. She was working out two hours a day, six days a week to maintain that figure. She was on a strict diet of low-carbs, high protein. She called it "emotionally destructive".
On the right is a candid shot of her now, being her natural shape, living her life the way normal people do. And she's fat enough to warrant representations like this:
FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE CARTOONIST.
Ms. Simpson's weight is NOT for public consumption. Gossip-hungry vampires who read shit that condemns Jessican Simpson for being "fat" should get an actual hobby.
Let me reiterate: some people are naturally skinny, and some people are naturally fat. Neither should be condemned for being what they are naturally, particularly if it's something as superficial as body weight.

Date: 2009-01-31 06:22 am (UTC)And responding to a post railing against superficiality with how she is more sexually consumable now and "fap fap" is just creepy.
Now, if you'd just agreed and said "yeah, she's bloody hot now that she rejects Hollywood standards!" I would have been less hostile.
But your "fap fap" and then calling me "dykie" just implies to me we're not on the same page.
Heh.

Date: 2009-01-31 06:27 am (UTC)I've had a short fuse on that sort of thing ever since a depressing number of my friends were somehow convinced for awhile that "healthy weight minus 25 percent" was somehow the acceptable maximum. %P

Date: 2009-01-31 07:28 am (UTC)Seriously, she looks NOTHING like that cartoon. Not even remotely. She'd need to add 30+ kilos before she comes close to *that* image.
I really wish that society would stop judging people on looks/weight this much. Not everyone can look like Jessica in the left pic. But I really wish that they'd stop making people feel bad if they're more like the right pic.

Date: 2009-01-31 01:38 pm (UTC)There are some exceptions - like the Spanish organisers of the annual modelling show banning size 0 models (in comparison to UK designers and models who see themselves as hangers and not people).
There is curvy and then there is fat. Ms Simpson is just curvy in all the right places and if you look at her past photos, she was never thin/slim to begin with.

Date: 2009-01-31 04:08 pm (UTC)Don't get me wrong, there's nothing with being lean and trim, but a lot of the celebs that are getting praised as super hot just look boney and malnourished, at least in my opinion.
If she's happier with herself this way than she was working out for two hours a day on a highly restricted diet, then this is way better. It shows you don't need to be rail-thin to be happy and beautiful (I put happy first, because anyone who's happy with themselves automatically looks 200% better, no matter what size)
And she's a very good looking woman!

Anyone else having grade school flashbacks?
