What do you think of this?

Personally, I think it's hilarious in the offensive way. >___>

Comical, but offensive. Then again, there are a lot of bad "stereotypes" in the media whose offensive aspect gets overlooked because they're deemed funny, so why should this one be censored merely because it targets the obese?

I dunno, if I were a human-devouring alien, I'd probably prefer a leaner cut, or maybe some delicious child veal

Indeed, but no one said anything then. I guess the fact that this is for a gym makes a difference.

Even the aliens don't want to deal with fat ppl. Looks like they are intelligent life form after all.

Then again eating them would be unhealthy so maybe not so intelligent after all.

Maybe they have invented a fat burning pill that actually works which allows them to eat whatever they want...in this case fat people.

Yeah I thought it was either that or it's elated to how their metabolism works. If so then it's all fine. : )

This is incredibly offensive. It is generalising that aliens want to eat fat people primarily. The aliens need their voice to be heard, you can't have some gym owner speaking out for them.

Seems like our society is starting to fight against fat people. First the Beautifulpeople.com incident where they banned thousands of people from their website for being fat, and now this. I wonder what will happen next.

Maybe its the assumption that the aliens will be diplomatic, eating fat people is acceptable but eating normal people is an act of war.

"I am not overweight yet I still find this extremely offensive and patronising but how much more so to someone genuinely overweight?" Haha, I think someone's a little deluded.

The only people who are actually offended by this are people who are either overweight themselves or very insecure about their health.

To be fair, a lot of niches of people are discriminated against, and Beautifulpeople.com is a haven for narcissistic and shallow ****s, so their actions are kinda moot.

They came for the fatties, and I did not say anything because I was not a fattie. Then, they threw their backs out trying to move the fatties :cry:
