Sing this pet...Ladies and gentlemen lets speak out! Sing this petition, http://www.PetitionOnline.com/ForceMag/petition.html to hold Marie Claire responsible for Maura Kelly's hateful remarks in her article http://www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/dating-blog/overweight-couples-on-television. The backlash of comments she received in response to her comments shows the public is highly upset at the lack of compassion and respect she has for her readers. My petition is to enforce that major publications regulate the content they allow to represent their name. Readers have voiced, comments "I wanted to kill myself MANY times because of people like the skank who wrote that blog!!!". Obviously change needs to happen. Please help support my cause.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523403790683911140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7857685521428375233.post-62701677524585328162010-10-29T10:25:40.865-07:002010-10-29T10:25:40.865-07:00I have never fully watched the show so I can't...I have never fully watched the show so I can't comment on that. I do believe that there should be shows and actors of all sizes, races, sexual preferences, etc. on the screen. I do feel that Marie Claire and the author are in the wrong. The article was rude and should not have been printed. If you don't like PDA that is fine, but PDA based on size is just wrong. I would never buy this magazine due to articles like this. Thanks for the update on how they think. )Belinda Campbell Beauty LLChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470491395238800861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7857685521428375233.post-16160566747398641362010-10-29T08:43:23.735-07:002010-10-29T08:43:23.735-07:00I resoundingly echo your sentiments, on all three!...I resoundingly echo your sentiments, on all three! The MC author's piece was an absolute sizist mess. And for the show, 'Mike and Molly' itself ... I elected not to watch it, as every promotion/preview I saw for it - was laced with fat jokes. Corny and predictable ones at that.

I feel everything...This is so many shades of wrong! I feel everything you said was accurate and correct. Here's my main issue with her blog. There are too many young girls out there struggling with self esteem issues that read Marie Claire. I am a self professed magazine junkie and like you I subscribe to and read only those that I can relate to. These young girls are "relating" to this nonsense! This is BS! What I heard, "it's nasty to see obese people showing affection and if you're obese you must not give a damn about yourself." <br /><br />Like you I've never had a problem getting a man and as a matter of fact my honey got with me at my heaviest weight..275! He loved me then and he loves me now 100 pounds lighter. I wouldn't use Marie Claire to start a fire with so they don't have to worry about me even picking up their magazine!Miesha Roshawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05503439124510797237noreply@blogger.com
