Obesity In America

Harbal !:slight_smile:

@Ruthio, and the rest of you folks with a bit of common sense and integrity, know that any Americans responding to this thread are bored with it. Such a petty discussion. In our case, the shoe doesn’t fit, too small a topic.

Thank you anyway.
Now, off to something that deserves my attention.

How on earth can morbidly obese people in America be a “ petty discussion “?

It’s killing many young Americans?.as well as older citizens!

Keep your head buried in the sand
probably ain’t affecting you. So let’s take it personally
as a bashing


Is this all really worth yet more arguing and falling out? These rants are getting very tiresome.

Maybe we should consider how we would feel if we were on an American forum, and saw them all ’ Brit- bashing’. We we feel hurt and affronted I wonder?

I wouldn’t go on an American site but if I did I would not be upset on a discussion on obesity in the U.K. because it is a problem .

Exactly, neither would I.

I’m on an American forum ,with just a few Brits,we all laugh it off
we aren’t that sensitive
we’re adults here not children.

Some of us would feel offended, and others would say that is not a reason to avoid the subject. In this instance, I don’t see the necessity of including America in the thread title when the problem is not confined to that country. I suppose it was tactless, if not deliberately offensive.

@PixieKnuckles Although he left out fat people in spandex. A personal pet peeve of mine. Although there is a morbid fascination involved as to “how did you manage to get them on”. Not something I want to think about, but the question is there. :grinning: :grinning:
