We are skinny; this is our work. There are lots of overweight people working in offices, but I'm not going to say, 'This girl is fat; she can't work in an office.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's definitely part of my job description not to be too fat.
Who would have thought that the girl who was forced to go to the hospital because she's so skinny would one day be called too fat?
I'm obviously not a guy who focuses on weight too much. But for certain jobs, you have to gain or lose weight.
It's okay to be a fat man. It's prestige and power and all of that. But fat women are seen as just lazy and stupid and having no self-control.
When it's all about the work, it's clear who in the company is pulling their weight and who isn't.
When modeling agencies were saying that I was too big and gaining weight, my mom said, 'OK, we're going to discuss what they're saying over pizza, and we're going to plan the future of your career which doesn't involve you having to be skinny.'
In New York, if you weigh under 200 pounds and decline so much as a cookie at a co-worker's party, women will flock to your side, assuring you of your appealing physique. This is how skittish we are about the dangers of anorexia and the pressures of body image.
You can crush any woman by suggesting that she's fat, not even saying the word 'fat' but just suggesting she's fat.
We feel it's unacceptable to be fat, when it has nothing to do with who the person actually is.
It is impossible for our working people to maintain their full strength if they do not succeed in obtaining a sufficient supply of fat, allotted to them on a proper basis.
