Why don’t people like obesity

I think these days when there is so much emphasis on how we look and some people’s craving for perfection that obese people don’t fit easily into the mindset of these ‘perfect’ people.

I think they are embarrassed that they might say the wrong thing or, even make the obese person feel guilty?
Or they just don’t like the look?

My view is, if an obese person feels healthy, which they can be… then what’s the problem?

to some obesity may point to the sin of gluttony?

I always assumed obese people generally suffered more with health problems at an earlier age … diabetes 2 … heart problems … strokes … knackered knees when the weight bearing joints can take no more.
You only have to do a quick google to get reams after ream of health risks.

Whilst I know some people can’t help it, maybe through eating disorders or medication, I still think if people are supposed to be responsible for their own health … they should take care of controlling their weight.
Smokers, alcoholics and drug addicts don’t get this level of support to assure them that they are normal and their vice/weakness/addiction is acceptable.

These days, everything is a health crime…
Don’t be too thin.
Don’t be too fat.
Don’t smoke.
Don’t drink.
Don’t eat this, don’t eat that.

Sometimes, it’s quite hard to be a human and survive the everlasting lectures and the ever changing advice!

@Artangel … my point exactly.
If only everything was considered normal.
Smoking, drinking, over eating, taking drugs.

Only if you are a bible thumper .

And have the covid vaccine or else you are selfish and worse than all of those…
:syringe:

Get covid unvaccinated and clog up the Hospitals

There are more vaccinated people occupying hospital beds with associated illnesses than unvaxxed, just ask Swimmy.

I’m not going to derail this thread any further, suffice to say, I can supply literally thousands of these accounts…
Vaccination

Sorry Foxy that is hogwash it’s not convincing in any way whatsoever
Too many people have died of covid and now they don’t .
Enough said .

We must be very unlucky here in Victoria then,We are getting deaths in double figures most days.Vaccinated and un-vaccinated.

Victoria does seem to be a hot spot .
Have you been vaccinated ?

I’m now eligible for my fourth which I’m thinking about.I will have one but it has to be timed right because they are not effective for long.
Wearing of masks and social distancing are just as important as vaccinations.

Me too. I love a woman with curves. Always have and cannot see me changing. But I cannot be horrible to women with a slimmer figure. We are all human.

I have a fear of being crushed in a roll over?
