"The "anorexic" son


Did you see him in the latest episode? He had a big gut showing through his shirt. What kind of anorexic is fat?

I was thinking the same thing after watching last nights show. Didn't he say he was anorexic in the first episode. Wow.

It could be a very recent development. Few weeks, a month or two.

Is no one watching the show? Second episode Mom makes Jesus pancakes and fixes him.

They are tackling a fairly new social issue. There was a recent study done and it revealed that a tiny percentage of situation comedy (sitcoms) shows have dealt with the important issue of male pregnancy. The writers felt that if they introduced this topic in their show, they could make large strides in raising awareness and tolerance for males that are pregnant.

I thought that you posted to the wrong topic, until I re-read the OP's post, and my brain turned on and I started laughing. Thanks for posting something that actually made me Laugh Out Loud! I have had a rough week, and really needed that. Cheers!

Not all anorexics (or anyone with an eating disorder) have to look entirely stick thin and malnourished. Just saying... The only issue I have is that they breached Jimmy's issue and then yay he was all okay and filed and they focused on the gay kid for the rest of the night.
