The Biggest Loser

I don't fully understand why most americans view someone who is overweight as a loser or as someone who has something wrong with them. The media in this country likes to send out the message that you can only really be happy if you are skinny or thin. People are incredibly superficial. I don't think that there is any one perfect way to be. Skinny, really athletic, fat, whatever. All that matters is that you are happy in your own skin is my opinion. For some reason, the people I have met in my life so far like to judge others based on their looks alone. I am so grateful that I live in such an enlightened culture. I can only hope attitudes like that go away with time.
