Blame it on the latest fad. Commercials, soaps and all other media subtly injects this notion in our very peculiar and receptive minds, being plus-sized is abhorrent. True enough, even in our TV viewing routine, guess who are the center of ridicule? And we all arrive to the same answer. Nowadays, it's really hard to be a plus-sized person because the society, or rude elements of society, make a laughing stock out of their life. Some may disagree because in some TV programs fat people are lorded as protagonists. Correct, but it's not entirely true. First thing, as predictable as the magic tricks of your sleazy barrio clowns, you are able to predict that these people will be exposed to mockery of all sorts.
