ok since were only talking about the idiotic part of this subject, here something else you guys might like  http://heyfatchick.tumblr.com/post/1296446884

basicly, its considered by some (fat) people that being not-fat is a privilege

rtil

whoever wrote that is the most insecure and jealous person on earth

Marketing obesity as a normal thing has such a cancerous effect on health. Plus sized models should be outlawed and fatties sent to the gulags.

I remember a post where someone posted a photo of an elevator that was deactivated and had "Take the stairs instead" painted on it. It was supposed to encourage people to try to be more healthy and whatnot, but in front of the elevator was of course a man in a wheelchair.

Now I was pretty miffed too, but then I looked at the comments of what these people were saying: They were more worried about the elevator being fat shaming, basically IGNORING the man in the wheelchair not only a centimeter away from the fucking elevator, in plain sight. About ten consequent posts in a row did not even mention the man in the wheelchair.

This is the kind of reaction tumblr gets.

i imagine it's a phenomenon that started here in the states, where in most places the majority of adults are obese, and i think 40% of the nation is overweight with the number rising every year. that, topped with a media empire that does indeed worship the impossibly photoshopped skinny girls and guys with ripped abs, it's only natural that some of them start getting defensive and find ways to justify their behavior.

i mean, it's not shameful to be overweight, but everyone should strive to be healthy and care about their bodies, and that doesn't mean they have to look like the people on the billboards. it just kind of sickens me when i see overweight parents stuffing their children with garbage food , especially when they use the excuse that it is affordable, when buying a fast food family meal costs the same as buying a few nights' worth of decent dinners you can cook from a grocery store. it's laziness, plain and simple.

You know who else should check their privileges?
nice guys
People never stop and consider what damage they could be doing to jerks, I'm tired of these nice guy privileges
"oh but it's your own fault isn't it?"
no bro I was born this way, it's not my fault I've got dick genes in my blood
"People shouldn't be encouraged to do this so we should treat them badly"
way to be a hypocrite bub
This asshole shaming has to stop, please spread the word.

Its also child abuse. I think parents with obese children should have them taken away for the safety and well being of the child.

i wouldn't be a bigot if people weren't so horribly revolting

there's a difference between having niche interests and being an obnoxious fucking faggot about it (see: bronies, 4chan, etc)
