I'm Gen X. It's amazing when I go back and watch shows and movies from my childhood that had a token fat character in them, because that character looks like an average person today. Look at Chunk from the Goonies. He was considered fat enough to have a nickname like Chunk, but he looks like the majority of kids I see now.

Have you seen Bridget Jones Diary? Rene Zellweger is supposed to represent what a fat woman in the 90s looked like. Fuckin hell.
