I member. Member Heavy Weights? That movie started the fat acceptance movement.

That movie's from 1995. Fat Acceptance can be traced back to at least the late 1970s, with the books Fat is a Feminist Issue and Such a Pretty Face. And that's just what I am old enough to remember ; I wouldn't be surprised if "Fat Liberation" actually started in the late 1960s/early 1970s, maybe earlier.
As for me, I am 53 years old and I still can't "pinch an inch" ; it pisses me off when I see teens , 20somethings , and 30somethings who are overweight/obese/extremely obese.
