How come so many people are jerks towards overweight people?

Because fat people generally whine about being fat and generally don't want to do anything about it. That gets annoying.

And your scenario only schows how fat peopel are less attractive.

Fat people are ugly... humans naturally want to mate with better looking people, because it shows they have good genetics.

Or something like that...

Because the majority of fat people don't give a flying **** about their bodies, and really don't care to lose weight.

And don't try to tell me that losing alot of weight is impossible, I have seen first hand a friend of mine lose over one hundred pounds in less than one year just because he wanted to.

I don't have any problem with obese individuals, so long as they cover up their bodies and stay off of elevators.

EDIT: Got rid of alot of politically incorrect stuff.

[QUOTE="booshdy"]Different peoples perception of 'normal' or 'perfect form'. Some people see being fat as a sign of weakness because they may not have the self control to keep their bodies in shape. I dont have anything against larger people but It has to be admitted that I tend to find them less attractive.Japanese_Jade

That is a really interesting point of view. Its also generally true. Its kinda strange how "everyone" is given the impression of what is beauty and what is not. What is stylish and what is not.

How is someone being fat very unattractive to most? How is someone being fat attractive to some?

Not so blank questions. All answered by each individual who reads it.

Fat people take up more space.

Fat people are more likely to die of heart disease.

Fat people are harder to have sexual intercourse with.

Fat people move slower than people who are not fat.

Fat people are generally lazier than people who are not fat.

Those are facts, and not a one of them is dependent on one's "taste" in order to be true.

You are either healthy and fit, or you are not. The "eye of the beholder" concept is irrelevant here.

because they are lazy usually dont do anything about it, thats whykbubba92

you know some people are fat from genetics?.......

Not entirely. Agreed you have listed some facts there, but those things might not be a turn off for some people. The "eye of the beholder" 'concept' is always relevant.
