In part 4 of the video, Mandy tries to use the kiss-a-gram to change the master status (successfully) of her aunt Elsa as a fat person by bringing her along to a job. This is also the case with women who are fat going on a skating night. This attacks the idea successfully that fat people can be fit ("Fat and proud, part 4" 2010). The fat calendar memorializes that change in master status permanently with a calendar shoot, so it does so successfully in a permanent fashion ("Fat and proud, part 5" 2010. The approach of the Biggest Looser is not successful because it is begin imposed from the outside. So often, people who do not naturally loose the weight of their own volition gain it back, with tragic results. The master status does not really change, just the body appearance, which is why we never see people portrayed as staying with the program (such as the dancing classes in the Fat and Proud videos ("The biggest loser," 2008). Therefore, it is doubtful that this approach really changes the master status of the participants. Also, the fact that it is not for clinical benefit but for entertainment purposes seals the fact that the change in master status is not complete or permanent.

In this essay, the author has described how the women in the Fat and Proud you-tube videos worked their way through the seven stages of a deviant career in this documentary. We saw how they managed their fatness...

...

Unfortunately, the Born Loser which features overweight contestants/participants who are there for entertainment purposes who are not able to accomplish this. Obviously, they are very different and can not be considered as changing the master status of the fat person as a deviant.

But sometimes the victims themselves are afraid to voice their grievances in the public because speaking up entails shame, ostracization, and even extra-judicial killings. The victims can express their grievances in public "only at certain times and in certain ways" because their rights are infringed on social and cultural levels (Dewey). The fact that cultural and traditional beliefs and attitudes contribute to violations of women's rights in a systematic manner

139). When she is "taken for a man," she is "not fat," because of the different gendered social norms related to body size (Bergman, 2009, p. 139). Thinness is also a type of privilege, as is external or socially acceptable beauty. Beauty ideals and norms are also tied in with race, culture, and class. Economic class and social class often determine access to healthy food, which is why low-income

This brings us to the idea of ideal femininity. What is the ideal woman? What should we expect of the female gender in the new millennium? When comparing the two views above, I would say that Chan's ideal of the woman as one who is worthy of recognition for her efforts in any context is far more valid than that forwarded by Campbell, who creates an emotional victimhood for women.
