I ran across this article on Yahoo today:
health.yahoo.net/news/s/hsn/once-obese-women-still-face-stigma-study-findsBasically the researchers found that even after women lost weight they were still
discriminated against by their male counterparts. It just goes to show how wonderfully the mass media has warped the hearts and minds of our generation. If this isn't proof positive there needs to be laws protecting people from discrimination on the basis of weight, then I don't know what it's going to take.
