Danger: NOT Politically Correct!!!

[dilloduck]

OMG!

In the media....and giving their honest opinion????




1. " 'Big is NOT beautiful! And plus-size is just a euphemism for FAT!' Kate Hopkins slammed as 'vile' and 'ignorant' on Twitter following TV rant at 18-stone model

2. Outspoken former Apprentice contestant Kate Hopkins - who once said she would never employ an overweight person - has been slammed on Twitter for a 'vile' and 'ignorant' outburst on live TV against overweight people.

3.....Hopkins said overweight people are 'deluding themselves' if they think 'big is beautiful', and are using the line as 'an excuse for not wanting to do exercise and for eating as much as you want'.




4. She continued: 'It's harder to be thin - you need discipline. 'Plus-size' is just a euphemism for fat - and who wants to be fat?'

5. ....big cannot find clothes they would like to wear,' she added. 'And I don't think we should teach our kids that big is beautiful when it's not.'

6. Cooper Wherry - who, at 5ft 9in and 18 stone [252 pounds] says she is 'extremely happy' with how she looks - said we should teach children about 'balance', and not to be 'obsessive'.

7. 'At the end of the day it's more about me feeling less intimidated about being a bigger person and enjoying my life. And not constantly trying to make myself smaller.'

8. When the plus-size model said she was intimidated by gyms because 'people intrinsically judge you and think you're lazy', but that she did do a lot of yoga, Hopkins replied: 'I don't believe you do enough yoga.'





9. 'I'm bored of supporting people. This country is all about support - it's time for discipline.'

10. Disgusted viewers took to Twitter to express their outrage at her opinions, calling her 'vile', 'ignorant' and 'stubborn'.....Hopkins responded to the Twitter backlash with a retort of her own: 'Lots of obese people tweeting their outrage. Take a lie down dears [sic]. One tweet is enough exercise for today.'"

Well if big is beautiful and we are all supposed to be PC (not the person), why do we have a people's garden at the White House? Why are parents discouraged from packing their kids' lunches? Why did Mayor Bloomberg take away large fountain drinks?

We are a nation obsessed with slimness, sex appeal, and being "hot" but we are supposed to accept people exactly the way they are no matter whether they weigh 105 or 600 pounds? Personally, I think all of it is a little sick and obsessive. Beautiful is beautiful in whatever package it comes in and a live and let live attitude is usually the best policy in any society.

I hate cruel jokes and comments about those who aren't so slim or sexy or 'hot' and I hate the over sexualization of little kids and I hate government interference into my choices and options and I hate political correctness in any form and I really like looking at a great body and wishing mine was anything close to that, etc. etc. etc.

And all this either is pretty normal or a pronounced Sybil syndrome.

But bottom line, I see nothing virtuous in going out of our way to make people feel inadequate or ugly or bad because of how they look.

Now that would be a paradox, wouldn't it.

Is there anything virtuous about lying to them and telling them they look hot when they weigh 600 lbs ?

You're entitled to your opinion.....tubby.

Human beings also get old and wrinkly.

Kate Hopkins is pushing 40, since she is riding the superficial train I bet she is celebrating her birthday with some botox.

You just tell that to Dorian Gray!

Dorian gray didn't write the article, but I can see why you compared Kate to him

My Mama taught me that if you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all. She didn't stick to that philosophy, but that is what she taught me.

I'd be mute.

I don't go around telling people they are ugly either.

I volunteer at a nearby rehab/nursing home and in recent months have made the acquaintance of a lady who through whatever physical problem easily weighs more than 500 pounds and is confined to a wheelchair because she can no longer walk. She is quite sharp mentally, but is incapable of taking care of herself, so she's a resident of the home. But when I show up there to do the Sunday service, I look out across the little congregation of wheelchair bound folks, and I see her face, eyes shining, absolutely totally committed to the experience and giving me a huge lift.

Her body is a disaster.

But to me she is beautiful.

And she knows full well her body is a disaster--we don't need people lying. It's the overt lying that sucks---it will destroy us.

But what point is there in telling her that her body is a disaster? To make her think that's all we really see? That it is more important than anything else? That she is worthless because of it?

I finally let a friend have it when he was constantly pointing out this or that sexy gal in the movies or on TV or pointing to the great tush or boobs he saw on the street while never EVER giving his quite pleasant but unremarkable looking wife a compliment of any kind. But he was quick to point out things she got wrong or mistakes she made and remind her of those often. And when we had them for dinner and he bragged on my cooking and asked his wife "Why can't you make it like this, Honey", that was it. I took him aside and read him the riot act. He was totally oblivious to the really sad and disappointed and sometimes angry look on his wife's face. He had no idea of how much his remarks hurt her.

There is a big difference in being honest and going out of your way to point out people's shortcomings or mistakes or inadequacies and thereby embarrass or hurt them. Most people know the difference between these two things.

What I bolded is really the point imo.

There is no reason to falsely compliment a person if you do not mean it but there is also no reason to go out of your way to demean a person who is seen as beneath a hollywood standard or a personal standard of beauty.

Unfortunately being PC is lying. The term in itself is self explanatory.

I don't subscribe to to being brutal under the guise of honesty.

I don't go around complimenting I am pretty direct.

Truth is I find most people attractive

on the rare occasion I don't, I just say nothing.

and I don't advocate lying. Which is what being politically correct is. If you keep your mouth shut, you are merely being tactful. PC vocalists are liars with an agenda. The use the "less fortunate" to their advantage. Leeches-vultures--Al Sharpton--Jesse Jackson--etc
