toxic

Okay, like, not to be a total girl or anything, but I was talking with someone this morning about the debacle that was Britney Spears' performance at the VMAs last night. The conversation went something like this:

Me: Britney makes me sad.
Other individual: She's fat now.

Um, wait.

Fat?

Is this really what constitutes fat now?

Apparently it is.

Sure, her dancing was sloppy, her lip-synching not synchronized in the slightest. She looked nervous, self-conscious, and even a bit hungover.

Sure, she doesn't have the abs she used to have.

But fat?

Oh, and to be completely fair to the aforementioned individual, s/he later amended the statement by remarking, "Well, I mean, she's not as skinny as she used to be."

Yeah. So what?

I know!!!!! I mean, if I can look that skinny after I have two babies, I'll be pretty damn excited. This culture is so damn sexist and fucked up - no wonder so many women have eating disorders.

Jesus, I think I'd like to look that skinny right now, let alone after birthing two babies.
