Angry Fat Chicks

Categorized:

Wal-Mart's online store used 'Fat Girl' as a subcategory for Halloween costumes designed for plus-sized women.

"This never should have been on our site. It is unacceptable, and we apologize. We are working to remove it as soon as possible and ensure this never happens again," Walmart spokesperson told CNBC.

The derogatory label was taken down by 11 a.m. ET on Monday morning. It was unclear what the retailer's intentions were for creating the category. The 'Fat Girl Costumes' site now redirects to an empty "Women's Plus Size Costumes" page.


Whatcha wanna be this Halloween, "plus size" girls? Wicked Witch of the Golden Corral? The Anti-Lohan? Jupiter?

Oh, I'm sorry; did I hurt your widdle feewings? Well, grow up. Sticks and stones, little sweethearts. Sticks and stones. Words only cause you harm if you allow them to do so. You can laugh or cry your way through life; it's your choice.
