When I got an E-mail from Jennifer Barreto-Leyva a
Columnist for
www.Gordos.com known for her outspoken ways and
articles. I was quite pleased. She found me
through the internet and had seen me on The Cristina
Show. She liked my out front speaking and
frankness of my treatment on various shows. We are
definitely two peas in a pod. When Jennifer told me
about the treatment of Plus Sized People in the Spanish
speaking countries I was ashamed. Knowing that
such a marvelous woman such as Jennifer (who is quite
small compared to me and holds the Title as Miss Plump
Venezuela) goes through things in such a harsh manner.
It made my heart hurt knowing my own People of the
Spanish Community could be so mean, derogatory, and
prejudice. I automatically connected with Jennifer
because we both fight for Size Acceptance and equal
treatment. She is an amazing woman and I am proud
to be in her Column on Gordos.com
