Bound and Gagged Chapters 3&4

Chapter 3 really has a lot of points about the way people and the media take on someone who they consider to be fat. After the Jerry Springer stint the book talks about pornography of fat woman and average men, in such things as magainzes. But what about in movies that hit theaters, such as Big Momma's house and Norbit just to name a few has left this image of people who are over weight. I think that says a lot of about our society, because we have this idea of what our idea of normal average people are, but in reality it isn't at all. Even though it isn't porn these movies give off this image of what we should think about someone who is over weight.

The book talks about Dimensions that is out purposely for fat admires as the book says. Then continues to say that it is in a way like homosexuality because they dare not to speak of it. People are so quick to judge anyone who is over weight, but they forget that ok yeah lets poke fun at them because we can. How can you compare someone who finds a person who may be heavier attractive to someone who is homosexual, there is no need to put two and two together.
