Browse Full-length Non-member TitlesAmber freely discusses her bias against fat people; Sean is equally frank with his prejudice against gays. When they "flip" for 24 hours, they come face-to-face with their own intolerances. Amber's fat suit and Sean's hair style and dress provide ample opportunity for them to be hurt, ignored, categorized, and demeaned. By day's end, both teenagers have a different point of view. NOTE: Profanity in the frank discussion has been "bleeped" (censored), but slurs and biased language remain.
