Fat Hate needs stamping out where ever it’s found! As if the yogurt ads weren’t enough for one day - I read about another outrageous example of “fat hate” that I feel deserves attention.

V’ron posted about a speech given by Howard Tullman (”apparently he pretty much saved Kendall College from dying by eliminating some programs and beefing up others”) — namely their culinary program. Here is an example of this awful speech: “he mentioned early on that one of the programs they eliminated from Kendall College was the athletic programs. Was it because they weren’t bringing in revenue? Was it because they weren’t cost-effective? No, according to Tullman’s speech, 400-pound culinary students don’t really care about volleyball.”

The speech gets much worse, but if I started on my soapbox this post would get way too long. So go check out “I could and I should and I did” by V’ron. It is definitely worth reading - and getting fired up about to make changes!

I say we all politely let this Tullman guy know exactly how we feel about his rude, uneducated remarks.

The more informed I become, the more outraged I get and truly feel it is important that fat hate be stopped and NOT tolerated at all levels of society and that size acceptance and respect should be politely demand. It is health that matters NOT size!

Our heros on this issue are mo pie, anne and weetabix over on Big Fat Deal. They have the best news on what is going on these issues.

How do you feel about these types of “fat” remarks? Have you ever experienced “fat hate”? Have you ever confronted someone about their rude behavior?

LOVE yourself, accept yourself, and don’t tolerate any less from others!
