Fat Woman Suing San Francisco Health Club Because They Won't Hire Her To Teach Jazzercise
KGO 810 ^

Posted on 02/25/2002 1:48:12 PM PST by hawaiian

The title says it all. There's a big to-do they're discussing on the Pete Wilson show right now about how this fat hippo woman is filing a lawsuit because this health club won't hire her to teach a jazzercise class. Apparently, she's fat as can be, but she says she can "do all the moves," and is filing suit because she says the health club is discriminating against her because she doesn't square with the health club's image.

LOL - I wasn't trying to be a suck-up. The woman in that painting is desireable for evolutionary reasons - hips larger than a 12 year old boy's send a subliminal message that the woman is able to bear children.

It also sends a not-so-subliminal message that there's a sale on "Ho-Ho"s at the Piggly Wiggly.

Indeed they do. Scary, ain't it? Makes you wonder just what consumer segment they're marketing themselves to?

I have to side with the club on this one. Sounds like she was a spandex failure event waiting to happen.

I think that you missed when you placed that "censored" sign... But I can't be certain.

Was it San Francisco or Santa Monica that fined a strip joint for not providing accessability to the performance stage for strippers who confined to a wheelchair?

FWIW, the one period when I did an aerobics class was when middle-aged, not exactly lean John taught. I thought if he can do it, so can I.

Which is not to say the club should have to hire her. Who do they sue if they go out of business?

Big Women have their uses. They provide shade in the summer, and keep you warm in the winter!

Her suit makes as much sense as the antics of the rest of the Cult against discrimination. I am glad to see people reducing the totalitarian mindset to the absurd. (See "Civil Rights" vs. A Free Society.)

Every right that a free man or woman has comes down basically to a right to discriminate. We need to start discriminating at election time against those politicians who do not respect our rights to make our own choices in our own affairs.

I dunno... If they hired her, I might go to such a Jazzercise class... I know I am not goin' now if I have to put on a leotard and bounce next to a hard body trainer. Now if the class made me look better than the trainer, maybe I would keep going.
