Dear Diane,
The post is about an old subject, but that was deliberate. I thought it best to call attention to the matter outside the heat of the discussion (which was not well heated and air took more offense to the association to an image that obese the 'belly' of the NYT itself). interessandte I found the placement Arnaldo Bloch on the subject, since ese is a view long championed by many groups that discuss the image of the obese in the media and the psychological impression generated by this image, which changes almost complete mockery of the social invisibility. Note on the repercussion is only for first place.

"The Czech naturalized Italian Suchopárková Milena says he intends to sue the New York Times for publishing photo of her and two girlfriends in bikinis at beach Ipanema without permission. The image of the three foreign illustrated a matter of controversial reporter Larry Rohter from Brazil on obesity, published in 13 days.
Of the three, the only one who remains in Brazil is Milena, 58. Located by the newspaper O Globo in Foz do Iguacu, she said she became a target of ridicule from friends. Milena landed in Rio yesterday and was amazed at the amount of reporters. 'For a little meat was splashed across newspapers. Seems a bit of an exaggeration, "reacted with good humor.
Rohter's story 'slender beaches, where the calories are on display' was based on the IBGE survey, that 40% of Brazilian adults are overweight. Rohter, however, did not interview the women photographed.
Miles said he was not offended by having appeared in a report on obesity, but because the picture is taken without your knowledge. 'I consider myself a simple person, talkative, I am not racist. But I hate rude people. To me, they (Rohter and photographer John Maier) were rude because they published my photo without permission. "
She said that once he returns to Prague will seek a lawyer, has sent a letter to the New York Times and still received no response. A Brazilian friend Claudia Milena Parsans suggested that require tickets as a reward spa and a month in Brazil. Milena smiled, recognizing that is overweight. 'But do not consider myself obese, "she said, which is 1.75 meters and 90 kilos. "It is my strong constitution." The Czech
said his intention was to arrive in Brazil a little slimmer, but succumbed to barbecues and caipirinhas. 'I like everything. "
Milena come to Rio three years ago on holiday. This time I brought two friends, Ludmila Kamberskaed Seidlerova and Hanna, also photographed on the beach. Hanna gained over the past five years after suffering a hormonal dysfunction and was shaken by the report. 'Everyone knows that here there are beautiful girls. Let him go get the girl from Ipanema, and not me, a poor old woman. "
Last year, Larry Rohter wrote a story about the alleged alcoholism of President Lula, who came to ask for the cancellation of the relevant work visa, but was reviewing the decision.
The Times publishes in today's edition a note in which he regrets the mistake of having Brazilian identified as European women. The newspaper reporter her disclaims any liability in the incident. Rohter was in Chile when the photographs were made. The Director of Public Relations for The Times, Toby Usnik, reiterated to the State 'full confidence' in his journal accordingly. "
... then comment on Arnaldo Bloch:
" Fat is beautiful ", copyright O Globo, 28/01/2005

" One of the most interesting repercussions of the case Czech Girls of Ipanema is the realization of absolute horror that most of the people of Rio, especially the South Zone, has the female obesity.
First there was the outrage provoked by the publication of the photos in the 'New York Times. Those horrific images (obese human females) in Brazilian newspapers and on the website of the NYT scratched gloss of our great symbol of the Girl Ipanema Corpitcho ultimate expression of the beautiful city. For Rio de Ipanema, the beach is an Apollonian hanging garden, where the appearance of an obese woman is spectral.
Now that the mistake of taunting New York Times' was discovered by photographer Marco Antonio Cavalcanti, GLOBE, a cloud of relief seems to refresh the city along with the rains of the week.
We all know that fat in Rio golden sun and salt. Those who have courage to go to the beach looking for points that are less exposed points of Ipanema.
But deep down, deep down, is like an illusion, as if the essence of Rio was curvaceous and fat-free, guitar perfect dark and resonating and making the waves break with more grace.
happens to be there in the background are the fat of the Deep River corridor in their rooms, afraid to face the revulsion they cause in the frigid Betties in macho steroids and paintbrushes in liposuction deformed.
Let's imagine that all fat locals solve their problems with the city's soul (and his soul) and they were the sun of Ipanema on Sunday, play attention (and the already cramped space) with hot, the healed and bulimics spew out of chocolate? Would make a beautiful photo essay.
'Fat woman' has become, for many and many, synonymous with ugly, problematic, boring, uninteresting. Think of fat as a multiple, rich universe is always out of fashion, despite the efforts of specialty shops. But on a scale that starts in the false-thin, passes through the bigger women and chubby, and ends in Gordon, there are a whole range of shapes, styles and psyches.
quasi-chubby and plump women are often sensational, sensuality and intense fire, and a beauty to the party for those who appreciate more skin than bones. The gordon, is less palatable to most tastes in force, have their captives when they know it affects sex.
And here we talk of aesthetics and sensuality. But we can mention those that turn into fat divas, with their long dresses and their fans, sweating charm in the halls, while clueless dumbed can not count one to ten.
But who are wondering about the conversation? Who is in search of irony, charm, content? Try to call a dumb blonde of dumb. Sometimes it does not need: it is common, lately, to anticipate and go Antinha warning:
- Look, I'm completely dumb blonde, you know?
Now try saying that in recent weeks his donkey won a tired love handles at the edges. The beatings will eat your joe.
This is not about to apologize obesity, because for many people it is a health problem that interferes with the quality and quantity of life.
Still, even when obesity is a disease, who are there are people with personality, voice, humor, gist. And when a fat or a fat kick the bucket, any celebration becomes more lively.
Long live the fat. Gordotas including Ipanema, so humiliated and insulted throughout history. Put on your bikini or swimsuit, women's weight. Come out to the streets. Mix It Up on Tour Nine girls, and the other, the hill, Ceara, Bahia, Brazil and even the Czech Republic. "
