They Are Making It Too Easy
QT's column today at the Chicago Sun Times had this one in it....
We Have Seen the Present, and It Does Not Work:
*A police officer in Manchester, England, lectured the victim of a hit-and-run driver for describing the driver as "fat," citing diversity sensitivity guidelines.
-----
So, for those who have a problem with the word "fat", or are afraid you'll be scolded for being insensitive, try using these....
portly; of added girth; extremely non-bulemic; larger than a breadbox, smaller than a bread truck; less than athletic build; underheight for his/her weight; more than amply sized; hefty;
There are many other ways to describe, as the airlines call them, "persons of size", so feel free to use any of these if you are in need of a word to keep the PC Police at bay.
