Amy Schumer brags about being 175 pounds…and still getting laid…generating some buzz, especially with fat girls, because fat girls love other fat girls who are owning being fat, because it makes them feel proud to be fat, and that they too can be loud and fat too, and not just fat an in an apartment with cats….
I will say that since the world is a lot fatter now, someone like Amy Schumer taking that angle is smart, it’s really the only stance she has for marketing…but the truth is that even if she was skinny, she’d still have a disgusting, busted up, car accident looking face, so the fat, gives her angle…rather than being skinny and ugly…so no one would listen to her…
That said, I am sure you’ve all been around fat girls in your life, some of us have even had sex with them when nothing else was around, some of us even married one because they said they’d pay our rent…so the loud, over sexual, trying to be funny fat girl is nothing new. I remember 30 years ago, in high school the fat girl was the horniest sex joke dropping inappropriate pig everyone fucked…it’s nothing new…but I guess it is familiar enough or refreshing enough compared to what else is out there…which is depressing to me, but not as depressing as her GQ shoot…
Stop encouraging her…or falling into the Star Wars for the Nerds, Gay Friendly, Knows her Market, Bullshit…
We get it…you’re fat…
