Actively not wanting to be fat is fatphobia, and therefore you’re fatphobic.
We must, it turns out, dismantle the “fatphobic logic of productivity, discipline, and personal responsibility.”

Seems that the underlying subtext here is that someone isn’t getting any and it’s because (their claim) no one will accept them as they are.
The reality seems that anyone that has met them can see exactly who they are and is repulsed at the notion of sharing a bed.
Actually revolted.
At some point they got told why and instead of owning it, it took the easy way out.
It has to be someone else’s fault.
And they never accepted that God gave them a life to decide the physical and mental stuff, but they got it in their head that God granted wishes.
Freedom and responsibility is an elusive concept for some.
Plus, you need a signed and notarized permission slip before you…ah,you know…
Do the dirty deed…

Before our politicians impose more laws and regulations.
So when do we start talking about the “truth-phobic”?
We already refer to them as “Liberals.”
Since the goal of all of this is to drive as many wedges into western populations as possible, they are soon going to run out of differences to trumpet. Apart from height, left-handedness and gingers, there are not to many ‘grievance groups’ left to create.
whaddya mean? I am both left-handed and ginger and not particularly tall (5’9″) and I never expressed any grievance.
Some thing are a little tougher to do in a right-handed world, but over the years I found my right arm was more useful then others’ left arms.
there are two types of people, those with red hair and those that wished they had red hair.
with respect to height – I still feel the NBA has a bias against short white guys.

Fat liberation is a radical anti-capitalist, anti-colonial, anti-state movement that was started by fat Black and Brown disabled queer and trans people.
Of course it was. Are you sure this isn’t a parody? I mean, c’mon, fat disabled queer minorities? Are there any other privileged categories you can fit in there?
If history is any indication, getting rid of capitalism will soon lead to a reduction in the number of fat people. If they like being fat, they might want to rethink that.
Does the Venezuela diet await?
Just imagine how screwed you are if you have a healthy BMI … and are WHITE!! By God, you’re literally a … MONSTER!!
No one WANTS to be fat. it’s most often a side effect of uncontrolled gluttony and and poor eating habits.
So, whose fault would that be?
Fat people are weak people and should be embarrassed about that. They also are a drain of the healthcare system throughout their ailment-plagued lives.
There are very few fat people in old folks homes … they, tend to die young …. it’s obvious … fat kills eh?
There are plenty of overweight residents in LTC. I know because I’ve been visiting them for years. They are overweight because they receive no exercise and the diet is heavy on processed carbs and sugar. Malnutrition and dehydration are also rampant in LTC.
Most people who are even moderately overweight know there is something than can be done, with a 100% success rate.
Control your diet. If you don’t eat right, you won’t look right. We all know that, but our behaviour continues.
Whatever, we’re living the good life. Instead of a writ large treatment, this fat shaming begging the question is thin on logic.
When I go grocery shopping, I often peek into the carts of obese people. Almost invariably, the reason for their obesity is in that cart. They eat crap and drink crap, but seem to believe because they consume diet sodas (which are literally poison) they can have a case of hohos for their afternoon snack. Blech!
My experience with fat people is that they naturally gravitate to the skinniest person in the room to bully and dominate that individual. It’s as though they think the person in charge should naturally be the one with the most mass.
The larger the ass, the greater the sass.
The funniest fat man ever. John Pinette learns he is allergic to wheat.

Fat people eat too much.
The anonymous but porky whiner claims “there is little to no evidence that we have any control over our size”. I beg to differ.
In World War 2 both the Germans and the Japs conducted EXTENSIVE ‘studies’ with millions of their captives. These multi-year studies proved conclusively that if people stop eating they do get very, extremely unfat. The archival photos of WW2 prisoners of the Germans and Japs being liberated shows 100% of them seem to weigh less than 100 pounds …pretty convincing evidence that eating (which people CAN “control’) makes you fat.
Class dismissed. Carry on.
Its O K. When a bear is chasing you, you don’t have to run faster than the bear,just run faster than the fat guy. Might work with covid also.
So it’s fatphobic to worry about the consequences of excess weight?
Aside from diseases like diabetes, one consequence is that it causes extra wear on one’s joints. My mother wasn’t very mobile in her final years, partly because of her hips. She gained weight because she couldn’t move around very well and that only made matters worse.
