Demographics (She/Her)

I know everyone likes to be mean, but let’s be creative here: It’s not just the stereotypical fat American. Look at our athletes and body builders, a lot of people who could possibly be in these terms are healthy by all metrics; some Americans are just taller and more muscular.

I’m not downplaying the obesity epidemic, but I feel like a more generic term is appropriate here.

Yeah, none of this is based in reality dude. Look at our movie stars, any magazine, and people on TV. This shit isn’t normalized.

I disagree, I feel like this is an attempt to inject emotion and empathy into a topic that usually garners hostility. Think of the people usually reading The Wallstreet Journal: it’s not anyone young you imagine, perhaps someone with terms like “commies” still in lingo from the 70s and 80s?

I read this as an attempt to humanize a group that their target audience would usually alienate. The photos help with generating those emotions.
