Hi everyone,
I hope you'll help me make this idea go viral. Feel free to copy exactly what I've said here, or say it in your own words, then post it on your blog or website. Working to be one's healthiest, best self is one thing, but let's refute the notion of the "fat police" that larger people can't be healthy--or at the very least, deserving of the same kindness and respect of all humans. I for one have had it up to here (hand held over the top of the head) with all the heavy hatred and worse, the condoning of said heavy hatred as if it's okay to hurt the feelings of a larger person, that they are somehow not even human.
Here is the situation:
There was a moment on the Californication program where the main character's father tells him that "life is too short to dance with fat chicks." Plus size professional dancer Ragen Chastain blogged about this here http://danceswithfat.wordpress.com/2011/01/12/david-duchovny-fat-chick-dance/
In her post she expresses the wonderful idea that she and the show's star, David Duchovny, ought to dance together on your program to show that life is too short to make assumptions about a person because of their size.
The "fat chick" might just be the most fun person to dance with!
And pass this on!
