And there you go, any argument you have ever had in support of fat-shaming just flew out the window. TA TA

Of course fat people have been saying the same thing for decades. But of course anything a fat person says about themselves or their own health is laughed off as “wishful thinking”. Our own experiences are constantly being denied as “head in the sand” “it will catch up to you eventually” mentality. Despite those of us that exercise regularly and eat healthy, we’re told that none of it matters because we’re still fat -and therefore couldn’t POSSIBLY be healthy.

The sad thing about it though, is that people should not have to be healthy in order to deserve to be treated with human decency and respect and not have to live their lives stigmatized, bullied, marginalized, and shamed. People are deserving of equality and respect reguadless of if they are healthy or not.

You know that the real pisser is, though? There’s absolutely no medical evidence that most of the common metabolic disorders that are associated with obesity are actually cause by obesity in the first place. No one has ever been able to conclusively demonstrate a causal mechanism - correlation is all we’ve got. It’s entirely possible that we’ve got it completely arse-backwards; i.e., that it’s the metabolic disorders that lead to a greater propensity for obesity, rather than the obesity that leads to the metabolic disorders.
