Fat-Pride is Stupid

[QUOTE="JC346"]You guys are F****** cruel. I hope you all become fat one day and see how it is.Toriko42

This thread makes me sad, i don't understand why everyone has such a big problem with the movement, dont stereotype fat people that is cruel to think the way some of you do.mexicangordo

Anyone else feel this way :?Toriko42

Agreed entirely; I think it's disgusting that someone would want to remain unhealthy and try to pass off grotesque body shapes as "beautiful." Nothing aggrivates me more than those stupid shows that occasionally come on about how "being big is wonderful."

Ick.

[QUOTE="mexicangordo"][QUOTE="Toriko42"] Cause why should fat people have those rights to esentially be fat. They take up more resources so they should pay more for medical premiums, medical insurance, plane seats, and just general things. Toriko42

[QUOTE="JC346"][QUOTE="T_P_O"] You won't be saying that when you have to hunt fat people for food. YUM YUM.fanboy-buster

[QUOTE="Toriko42"][QUOTE="mexicangordo"] So you think that they have this movement because they have to pay more for materialistic things, or do you think they have this movement in order to stop people bulling over them, or perhaps for support for eachother and to show that losing weight isn't as easy as the world tries to make it seem. Seriously some people need to open their eyes. Do you think the Gay pride movements is only about gay men dancing in the street? :roll:mexicangordo

.... are you serious? How can they ignore everything? I am not over weight myself or anything close but i see obese or bigger people get picked on all the time, they have self conifident issues, many think they are ugly. Who really want's to be over wieght? You think they don't know this? Things and movements such as those help them to cope with it, its not tricking anyone or anything, and they are trying to live their lives without the oppression of our society that actually makes everyone believe that you must look a certain way to live a great life.mexicangordo

[QUOTE="mexicangordo"][QUOTE="Toriko42"] I think they are trying to ignore the fact that they are obese or they want others to think it's a 'good' thing. Why else would one of the sites have an advertisement for 'BBW (Big Beautiful Women) dating'garrett_duffman

Let them do what they want. If they want to remain fat, that's there choice. But it's stupid for them to complain about the two airplane seats thing, and stuff like that.needled24-7

Some call it fat acceptance, I call it lazy fat people not wanting to diet.

Sizeism? You must be kidding

Fat people like to complain a lot about how they have to buy two seats on a plane...well why shouldn't they. I pay 20 bucks for extra luggage, your 150 pound overweight body should also have to compensate since that is the size of a normal human.

America and Canada need to do more about fat people. Garnish their wages until they lose weight, make them enter programs, have fat camps, give incentives for them to lose weight. All it does it cost us money for their healthcare, and it makes the country less healthy.

Anyone else feel this way :?Toriko42

Well fat people do buy more food and use up more gas because of excess vehicle weight which i suppose is good for the economy. Be aware that there is a group of fat people that have genetic disorders where they gain weight very fast and in some ethinic groups its heretic to be fat and thats just how it is. As for fat people who just eat a lot and neglect exercise, who cares, its their choice, just as long as they dont complain about it.

Also, if we somehow end up in an ice age or very cold weather due to so called global warming i wouldnt mind an extra 50lbs of blubber to keep me warm.

[QUOTE="mexicangordo"][QUOTE="garrett_duffman"] ... you DO have to look a certain way to live a great life. if you are a 2 ton person and cant get out of bed, good luck HAVING a life. the fact of the matter is, is that fat people hate being fat, but they arent willing to do CRAP about it because they are not self motivated because instead of taking what people say as constructive criticism, they use it as a reason to sit around and ***** all day. garrett_duffman

[QUOTE="Darth_Tyrev"]That's impossible, because not everyone is fat due to over eating and/or lack of exercise. Like all ignorance, people apply a large group of people to one stereotype. If you try to get everyone who's fat to lose weight (through forceful means, as you suggested), it's not very fair to those who have conditions that make it impossible to do so. It would be much more logical (and less dick-ish) to just try to raise awareness of how unhealthy some food is, and to promote exercise and portion control (as many are already doing, i.e., "Supersize Me").jointed

Provide some evidence supporting the notion that most fat people are lazy and unproductive.

How can someone possibly be proud of being unhealthy? It baffles me. :?Dark_Knight6

I'm surprised no-one posted this.

I agree with you, but 150 lbs. is not at all overweight.

very well said...i agree

You know what? I'm sick of people hating on me because I'm a rude, irresponsible, callous, inconsiderate and completely hollow wretch. I could fix the problem, but I'd rather not. Instead, can I have "-ism" to protect me too?

If I were really fat, I certainly wouldn't be proud.

I used to be pretty fat as a child, and I felt like crap at times. So I simply ate a little less and got a little more active and did some exercise and now I am much skinnier than I used to be. I'm still a tiny bit overweight, though.

Give fat people a break. I used to be really fat, and it isn't a good feeling. It takes a lot of motivation to and will power to lose weight, something that most you do not understand. stupid4

i understand it, thats why i workout and watch what i eat

That's ridiculous. Nobody should feel pride in being unhealthy. What's worse is that they're influencing other people not to change their ways.R0cky_Racc00n

The difference is that being a rude, irresponsible, callous, inconsiderate and hollow wretch would make you a bad person. Whereas being fat would just make you fat.

If you actually value being ripped as being more important than stuff like contributing to the community.

Hey kids, stop sitting on your ass studying genetics in the hopes of one day improving humanity. Put down those books and go to the gym instead!
