Self-appointed Lunatic
Ok, so yesterday,, my cousins and some second cousins I've never met before in my life and I were watching some music video (the new Britney Spears video I think; one of them wanted to see if it was any good). At one point, one of the second cousins (a male of about 10-12 years old) commented on how Britney was fat.
***?!? THAT GIRL, FAT??? My cousin (male, a month or so younger than I) said that she wasn't "fat," just "chunky," pausing the video and picking out spots of "flab."
So the point is... are American beauty standards normally this ridiculous? If Britney Spears is fat, what would a common, everyday girl be? How do girls feel about having to put up with an increasingly thinning standard that's biologically impossible to attain without hurting yourself?
Do all places in the world treat women like this?
PS: Why does everyone hate Britney Spears, anyway? Did she do something?
