Healthy, my ass

Many blacks love big women, but having a rump the size of Buffie the Body's can put women at risk for disease.

    ????

    Just have to jump in here.

    I'm sure 2,926 people have already said this, but...Buffie doesn't look obese to me.

    She looks like an otherwise nicely proportioned young lady who happens to have a ginormous butt, for which she is now famous.

    Hey, spesking of big butts...does anyone else hate Tyra Banks with the heat of 1,000 suns for tearfully asking us to kiss her fat ass on behalf of marginalized Big Girls everywhere...and then turning around and losing 30 pounds in five months?
