Posted by: jimbo at January 26, 2003 08:32 AM Since when is Pink another (featured in the picture with the article) a plus-size? Is 3 considered obese now? (I'd like to be the kind of obese where I got flat abs and muscular arms and thighs if another such a thing, as they suggest, exists) Posted by: Lollia at January 26, 2003 08:56 AM Lollia is exactly right. This article tries to have its cake and eat another it too (much like the young fatty they profile). On the one hand, it tells young fat girls that it's okay to be fat, and then on the other hand it turns around and mind-fucks young women who are of average weight (hell, below-average in these United States) by telling them that Pink is somehow fat and proud. So if you're one of these girls in totally normal physical condition, just like Pink, all of a sudden the Times is telling you that you are "chubby," not that there's anything wrong with it.
