Fat!So?

http://www.fatso.com/
It's hard to find a site that kicks you in the seat of your pants anymore. Here's one that moons you. Squatting on the fence of Internet decency, the site of "Fat!So?" magazine greets the casual surfer with a vivid screen of well-padded rear ends. Click any one of them and you'll actually learn some fascinating things about obesity, which editor Marilyn Henrietta Wann -- the absolute nemesis of Susan Powter -- is attempting to bring into mainstream society by nothing less than brute force. If you're looking for the butt of the joke, you're in the punch line. "Fat people are not, by definition, lazy or stupid," writes Wann. "People who believe in such stereotypes, however, are."
