buuuttt that's not even the offensive part lol
And you know, the video is fine overall, about you know, working out and wanting to be what you think is your best. Like I said, it was just done in bad taste, or perhaps, just to cater to that market.
The other thing is. You know I said this earlier, but it's interesting to me, how seriously or not seriously, people take the little things in our cultures and languages that marginalize people.
Like I said, what if I was going around saying "omg this music video is so retarded". Using "retarded" as a synonym for "stupid".
Now some people take that sort of thing very seriously, and other people don't.
In any case, I was happy with what someone just posted at another forum:

Noticing these kinds of things doesn't make you overly sensitive it just makes you more aware.
