@Liz, I agree that it is stupid, but more than that it is sad and a horrible reflection of the sort of culture we live in when a self-professed 'feminist' says something like this: "Not being the babest person in the world creates a nice barrier." Um, first of all, I don't believe that, I think its just too hard for her to lose the weight/she is addicted to junk food or whatever and this is a handy excuse, but nonetheless, why hasn't saying something like that created an uproar? What sort of a sick society is this where a woman may feel that she needs a 'barrier' in the form of FAT (or ugliness, or whatever) to deflect unwanted attention/creepers/other potentially scary things? I find it despicable that we live in such a world honestly and yet people harp on about how feminism is dead and equality has already been achieved there is nothing left to do yada yada
