Is it, or is it not? You be the judge of this one, folks. As you can see, making fun of fat people can be funny and satisfying, but you would also hurt a person's feelings.

I think it is right, because they are fat, and they made themselves that way. It was their choice to be lazy and eat unhealthy foods and such....

i think you just answered your question

BUT - here are some criterias:

In order to make fun of fat person:

1) you gotta be stronger than him (in case he would wanna fight you)

2) you CAN'T be fat yourself (or even overwheight)

3) you can make fun of the guy, if he is cool with that

4) you ABSOLUTELY CAN'T make more fun of a person, who has this innocent expression on their face (after they are made fun of)

Could be that glands stuff. But if they are gluttonous/lazy, I see no reason not to.

First off, that isn't necessarily true. Second off, even if it were, it still isn't right to make fun of them for it.

a good argument for them is to say that they have somewhat of a disorder. in that case, i would stop.

No need to make assumptions and judge people unless you have walked a mile in their shoes and are prepared to be judged yourself.

Making fun of anybody isn't right anyway. And yeah, not all fat people are that way because they are lazy, like the others pointed out there's possibly a medical reason they're like that. I've got a thyroid problem and before I got on meds I got big for a while (not obese, but definitely heavy). Luckily I didn't get teased about it but it wasn't something I could help. Even if they are that way because they're lazy or don't eat well, you shouldn't bust on them, though I'd be tempted if they whined about being big and still kept up the same habits.

Absolutely, freedom of speech makes it right to make fun of fatties, asians, blacks, skinny kids, cancer patients, and girls equally. Weight is something one has control over (for the most part) as well, so it's their own fault more or less.

Making fun of fat people like many things, is pointless. It was their decision to eat the way they did, why must your input be recognized by them in a matter that does not help at all? Perhaps if they're your friend and you joke around with things like that, as long as you don't get to a point where the person you've insulted is actually hurt by what you said it's not really wrong since you're all buddies in the end.

If it's just a joking matter where even the fat/overweight w/e person is laughing then I dont see the problem. But when you actually start hurting peoples feelings then that's definately not right.

quite simple, actually. here's an analogy: when you make fun of someone or say something to put them down in a way, you are in some way saying you are better. if you are not better, then why the hell are you saying that? because, whats the point of showing envy in something. Thats why i dont really understand many people, their words mixed with their real emotions dont make sense. Its not that you dont make sense, its just that others dont make sense.

I don't think it is right because i am fat and you can't completly blame me for it because when i was younger there was so many fatty foods around me and they tasted so good and my parents didn't stop me. (little kids don't kow when to stop) so now it is the hardest thing to deal with because other people think i can't do stuff that they can do and it is hard to lose the weight. So i think it is wrong. I think this might be the reason for most overweight people. It can be ok sometimes to make fun of them if they start the joking.

So why only fat people? Because, unless you ask 'is it right to make fun of #randomkindofpersonofwhichexist129278392372differentkind', then .. >_>

And I don't say it's right, but come on, who here can say they have NEVER made fun of anyone. Right or not, we'll all do it at one point or another.

I guess I didnt specify which fat people i make fun of... its the damn fat people who can easily lose their weight and say "im so fat. no one likes me, i want to die". those fat people deserve not to live with that kind of confidence. others that think that even though they are fat, they are the ****, are really annoying...but thats the way to go. confidence is everything when you cant succeed in the thing that matters most to people these days: Appearance.yellosnolvr

Wow dude. "deserve not to live" Take 500 cc of chill pills and rest for a bit.

So instead of trying to instill determination, you'd rather make fun of them? Doesn't sound lazy to me :roll:
