One trend that has been so popular in these times is health consciousness and how people try to watch their weight, often sacrificing their love for food and putting extra time in the gym just to get the "ideal" body.

As much as there are great health benefits to having the right weight proportions, Stephen Nash posed the question perfectly, "Who decided it was bad to be fat?"

The social stigma about full-figured ladies or men with bulging tummies has grown in recent times. Many took this as an opportunity to sell various weight loss products and offer exercise routines to lose the extra weight.

But when did being fat become such an issue that it causes people with a little bit of extra in their bodies so much stress and anxiety just to live normally?

In his opinion piece, Stephen Nash tries to look back in history to see how ancient peoples perceived fatness.

Though much data and evidence is still needed to form a solid picture of the situation for fat people in history, there are some artifacts that point to fatness being a non-issue and even widely accepted and revered.

It is difficult enough to describe who millennials are, what they do, and how they think, and now to put them side by side with who marketers call the Generation Z, it would be a near impossible task to differentiate between the two.

Putting individuals in a box and giving them a label is something many in my age group tend to be wary of, especially when the title given is one created by those who want to push their products and get our money.

But is their a stark contrast in the society that the millennials grew up in from that of the Gen Zs?

As much as we want to define the identity of the Zs, another important question needs to be asked first, has there been a major historical shift that would shape the core values of that generation differently from those who precede them?

In the end though, we cannot deny the inevitability of the rising of Gen Z. But only when they have fully matured can we begin to decipher the values and attitudes that drive them.

This summer, car owners in Amsterdam might have to find a new home for their vehicles as a slightly controversial policy will be implemented wherein the city will be gradually removing parking spaces per year.

To make way for bike lanes, pedestrians, and trees, the city, which is currently governed in large part by GroenLinks, will start to implement the agreement to reduce parking space.

People usually get around the city by bikes, public transport, or on foot so this would be beneficial to make room for these other means.

Though they do clarify that parking permits given to car owners will not be revoked. They just won't be renewed. It is up to car owners whether they would simply leave the city or give up their cars.

No one can say how different parties involved will react to this policy and whether it would reap benefits in the future.

But with pressing issues in the environment, overcrowding, and infrastructure, this may be for the best.

A "dating site" inspired by Tinder has been created for cattle. The site was created for farmers to sift through a huge database of cows that would help them find fitting mates to breed with their cattle.

“Matching livestock online is even easier than it is to match humans because there’s a huge amount of data that sits behind these wonderful animals that predicts what their offspring will be,” CEO of Hectare Agritech Doug Bairner said. They launched the site just before Valentine’s Day and believe that Tudder is the first ever matchmaking app for livestock.
