Hey Tyra, I am watching your show about women and their bias against overweight women on Oxygen. I just wanted to comment about that issue. Those girls may think that they are motivating the other women to exercise by telling them that they are fat and what not, but that bluntness could lead the women to eat more. Some women find comfort in food when they feel that their feelings have been hurt. And those women are the part of society that make young girls and teenage girls become anorexic. They need to wake up and realize that saying mean things aren't motivating women, they are destroying not only themselves but the women around them. And what if they have children and the children are constantly being teased I would hope they would not appreciate that. I want those women to know that their mean words could end up killing someone because they cannot take the teasing anymore. They are grown women and they need to learn RESPECT.

This is what you should say to my locals if they make you react to them: "She's talking to her BUM." however really that is what communicates "she talking to hereself" I sound out writing. 126 395 086
