No thread about Gabby Sidibe's historic TV moment?

[Wario]

Who cares. I would be annoyed if a regular-sized woman felt empowered by a shoddy sex scene in a shoddy show but this woman is clearly only getting bashed because people don't find her aesthetically pleasing. I'd say her feelings are more reasonable because she's constantly degraded and put down on a daily basis.

Poor soul, I wouldn't have done it but women do it anyway - fat, old, young, or thin. Hollywood is an awful place.

Who cares.

Well no one really.

But people are trying to champion this moment as some sort of progressive step against "fat shaming". This is nothing more than her being exploited for a publicity stunt for a show that already is popular enough to not need it.

I watched that episode all the way through and I have no recollection of this sex scene. I think my brain shut down when it happened.

big girls need love too?

Big girls need love, not exploitation. And we saw those pics, you not anywhere near Gabby status and you know it.


She needs to seriously think about her lifestyle cause being that obese is dangerous to her health and not worth keeping just to stay relevant in hollywood. Now I don't mind some meat on my bones (I be seeing at you ) but Gabby on some legit Obese and near death level shyt. She has the resources to handle that, she really needs to.

I'm speaking from experience as a former chub though, I'd hate to see her going through shyt that she don't need to. We lost Patrice on some same shyt.

It's a bit disturbing in light of what Lee Daniels has said about black women, overweight people and dark skinned blacks.

Yet the movie is not neutral on the subject of race and the prejudices that swirl around it, even in the supposedly postracial age of Obama. “ ‘Precious’ is so not Obama,” Daniels said. “ ‘Precious’ is so not P.C. What I learned from doing the film is that even though I am black, I’m prejudiced. I’m prejudiced against people who are darker than me. When I was young, I went to a church where the lighter-skinned you were, the closer you sat to the altar. Anybody that’s heavy like Precious — I thought they were dirty and not very smart.

His joke about black women at the AIDS clinic was his lowest point for me.

Agreed. He's a terrible person, and I can't watch Empire knowing what the guy thinks.
