Actually, based on the allegations against him. Yes. She was seven when the Cosby show ended. Cosby is accused of being a rapist not a child molester, let's not conflate the two. I don't often engage in the game of "whose trauma is worse" , but while sexual assault of adults (regardless of gender) is awful, sexual

Raven seems very smart and very self-aware. I wish more former child stars - hell, stars period - took their lead from her.

Yeah, seems like just the right response. She said what her experience was, didn't speak about anyone else's, and then closed the subject.

You know what I like about Raven's response? She clears the rumors about herself up, asks to be left out, and does not rush to defend him or refute any other women's claims (Ahem, cough cough, friends of Woody Allen).

i feel like almost all the ladies made a pact to dress like fancy couches and frankly they all look gr8

Suzanne Collins, I think you looked perfect. And you wear those comfy shoes, girl.

Only people like ME deserve to be treated fairly.

My understanding is that a flauta is made with a flour tortilla and a rolled taco or taquito is made with a corn tortilla. That's the usage I see at the Mexican restaurants here in San Diego.

Well, I am Mexican, living in Central Mexico, the term taquitos is something completely gringo, to us 'taquito' is a term of endearment for regular tacos.

And I remember when they were called 'flautas'. The proper Mexican taqueria nearby calls them rolled tacos, and they are served up with Crema Mexicana and decent guac. The calorie difference between low fat sour cream and the real thing is negligible, unless you are scarfing down buckets of the stuff. And as far as

I don't think any of the women in that photo above are in danger of diabetes due to weight. There's a massive range between "morbidly obese" and "ever appearing in fashion magazines".

Serious question: Why do you care? If someone's lifestyle choices don't affect you in any significant way (and they don't), then why do you care what they do or do not choose to do with their own bodies? Why waste energy and time on something that has literally no bearing on the rest of your day? I'm genuinely

And it hasn't occurred to you that it's really none of your damn business? As an overweight woman, I'd like to be the first to say, FUCK OFF, I DON'T CARE. WHEN I DIE IS MY OWN GODDAMNED BUSINESS.

But that's the thing. You don't know anything about me or my health - or anything about these models. You just can't make assumptions about people based on their appearance. Look at Brittany Maynard, the late face of Compassion and Choice. She was incredibly healthy, thin, athletic, right up until she was diagnosed

Damn straight! You're not a concern troll, you're a god damned hero, and don't let anyone else tell you any different.

I'm sorry, but no. There is nothing objectively healthier about being a size 0-2 than a size 6-10, which is where most plus-sized models fall. Honestly, I'd take your argument more seriously if you just admitted it was about your personal aesthetic preferences and stopped trying to pretend this is about health. How do

YES! My bff works out like a mad woman is very strong but her body makes cholesterol. She has to take medication and if she switches doctors has to sometimes beg for a check on blood pressure. Me I'm fat but my numbers are spotless, my doctor is worried about my cola addiction but if I switch doctors I get bp checks,

Dude, you can't have it both ways. You started this thread criticizing fat women, and now you're criticizing a thin woman for not living a perfectly healthy life. What is your definition of healthy? It's obviously not enough to just be thin, but we have to eat exactly right and exercise exactly right. Do we have to

Seriously. Somebody should do something about all this.

I hope to hell you're doing more to fight this scourge than just typing comments. Try yelling at fat ladies as they walk in the park, or maybe visit a playground and knock the snacks out of the chubby kids' hands. Any little thing you can do to stop fat women and girls from feeling comfortable in their own skins will
