Anyway, on a related topic, the&nbsp;<em>Hunger Games<\/em> actress called out fat-shamers (saying &quot;calling someone fat on television should be illegal&quot;) and made anyone with TV and Internet access stand up and applaud her accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;If we&#39;re regulating cigarettes and sex and cuss words, because of the effect it has on our younger generation, why aren&#39;t we regulating things like calling people fat?&quot; she asked Barbara Walters on Walters&#39;&nbsp;<em>10 Most Fascinating People of 2013<\/em> special.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Why is humiliating people funny?&quot; she continued. &quot;I think the media needs to take responsibility for the effect it has on our younger generation, on these girls that are watching these television shows and picking up on how to talk and be cool. So all of a sudden being funny is making fun of a girl who&#39;s wearing an ugly dress.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>YES. YES, YES, YES. YES. Obviously, there&#39;s always humour in making fun of things (let&#39;s be honest: making fun of Shia LaBeouf for plagarizing an entire movie, THEN plagarizing an entire APOLOGY was really fun yesterday), but when you channel that into making fun of a person&#39;s size or outfit choices or anything that isn&#39;t them, say, being the total worst (case in point: we make jokes about Rob Ford to keep from crying, BUT calling him fat is lazy, stupid humour, and arguably not humour at all), you&#39;re being a hack.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Lawrence just called out hacks. And god damn it, on behalf of everyone tired of hack humour, thank you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our best friend makes us proud again<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67426,"featured_media":77289,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64593],"tags":[65924,78671,64957,78672],"class_list":["post-55257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-whisper","tag-barbara-walters","tag-sexual-health","tag-jennifer-lawrence","tag-epsom-salts"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Jennifer Lawrence Shames Fat-Shamers - 29Secrets<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Jennifer Lawrence is our best friend, everybody, and it feels so better to finally just be real about that.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Jennifer Lawrence Shames Fat-Shamers - 29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Jennifer Lawrence is our best friend, everybody, and it feels so better to finally just be real about that.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/pop-culture\/daily-whisper\/jennifer-lawrence-shames-fat-shamers\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/29Secrets\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2013-12-18T16:14:55+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/digiblocks.ca\/29secrets\/wp-content\/uploads\/jennifer%20lawrence_0.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Anne T.
