I Think We're Gonna Need A Bigger Closet

Interesting: there's a British production company filming a plus-size beauty pageant for a documentary. (Registration is required; I used bugmenot.com of course.) Apparently the prize is a whole two hundred bucks, and the entry fee is eighty dollars. Something about that math doesn't strike me as quite right. I guess that's not really the point, though. Plus sized girls deserve tiaras too!

From the article: "This is not about promoting big is beautiful. There are health issues with obesity," said Stamper... But her attitude is "I'm not going to sit in a closet because you think I don't look good enough to do what I want to in life."

Hey, I didn't know fat people were supposed to go in the closet. Move over, gay people! You're going to need to make room. A lot of room. You know, for all the fat people.
