So... just learned what the thin privilege is... wtf?!

[elgranluchadore]

fat ppl are okay, i mean im sure at least someone posting on this thread has some extra pounds or has a family member/ friends who is somewhat fat.
but yea this whining is annoying

[Spartacus Sully]

fat shaming does not help people lose weight, it is bullying, and it tells overweight people that they don't have to lose weight to fit in, they just have to bully other people.


There are many many many better ways to incentivize people into losing weight than "IF YOU DONT WANT PEOPLE MAKING FUN OF YOU, LOSE SOME WEIGHT" or "lay off the doughnuts, fatty"

"do we really need hashbrowns with the egg mcmuffin? the fruit and oatmeal is really good and its way healthier"

"instead of those doughnuts why don't we get a few apples and a jar of pnut butter?"

1. You***8217;re not assumed to be unhealthy just because of your size.

2. Your size is probably not the first thing people notice about you (unless you***8217;re being thin-shamed ***8211; the opposite of fat-shamed).

3. When you***8217;re at the grocery store, people don***8217;t comment on the food selection in your cart in the name of ***8220;trying to be helpful.***8221;

4. Your health insurance rates are not higher than everyone else***8217;s.

5. You can expect to pay reasonable prices for your clothing.

6. You can expect to find your clothing size sold locally.

7. You can expect to find clothing in the latest styles and colors instead of colorless, shapeless and outdated styles meant to hide your body.

8. You don***8217;t receive suggestions from your friends and family to join Weight Watchers or any other weight-loss program.

9. When you go to the doctor, they don***8217;t suspect diabetes (or high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or other ***8220;weight-related***8221; diagnoses) as the first/most likely diagnosis.

10. You don***8217;t get told, ***8220;You have such a pretty/handsome face***8221; (implying: if only you***8217;d lose weight you could be even more attractive).

11. People do not assume that you are lazy, based solely on your size.

12. You***8217;re not the brunt of jokes for countless numbers of comedians.

13. Airlines won***8217;t charge you extra to fly.

14. You are not perceived as looking sloppy or unprofessional based on your size.

15. You can eat what you want, when you want in public and not have others judge you for it or make assumptions about your eating habits.

16. You can walk out of a gas station with a box of doughnuts and not have people yell at you to ***8220;Lay off them doughnuts, fatty!***8221; (This actually happened to one of my friends.)

17. People don***8217;t ask your partners what it***8217;s like to have *** with you because of your size.

18. Your body type isn***8217;t ***ually fetishized.

19. You***8217;re more likely to get a raise or promotion at work than someone who is fat.

20. Friends don***8217;t describe you to others using a qualifier (e.g. ***8220;He***8217;s kind of heavy, but REALLY nice, though***8221.

21. The media doesn***8217;t describe your body shape as part of an ***8220;epidemic***8221;.

22. You can choose to not be preoccupied with your size and shape because you have other priorities without being judged.

So, to conclude... LOSE SOME ****ING WEIGHT.

16 and 17 are the only ones i dont agree with. simply because someones *** life generally isnt anybody elses business unless the person in question brings it up themselves. yelling insults at strangers just to be mean is about as big a d!ck move as there is, just being a bad person.

the rest you are just going to have to deal with as an overweight person. of course your health insurance is higher, so is the health insurance for smokers. you are at a higher risk dummy, hence you have to pay more to make it worth their while. similar thing applies to clothes being expensive, takes more time and fabric to make it, hence it costs more to make and they have to charge more.

number one annoys me too. if you are overweight you are unhealthy, just a fact. on the other end why would you assume someone is unhealthy if there is no evidence of it, like with a slim person? again, smokers face this same issue and rightfully so. being unhealthy is being unhealthy, period.

i could keep going all day. ****ing list is dumb as ****.

If I had to sit next to the mountain on the plane or big Z, i'd be pretty angry too. I'm not trying to feel cramped in a seat I paid for

People who are better than other people should have additional privileges. Otherwise, why even bother?

Says the overweight guy.

A very small rare portion of overweight people have an underlying disease and I don't agree with shaming them for it.

As far as people who are just lazy chubby slobs and spend their lives wandering around in kahki shorts and flipflops eating 24/7, we should hogwhip them.

That is what "privilege" of all types has always been.

Financial analysts who work 80+ hours a week are "privileged" and people who spend all day smoking weed on their front lawn are "oppressed".

I guess once we decided to ban learning about genetics/inheritence from the education system and pretend everyone is 100% equal we had to come up with new words to explain why some people suck at everything.
