from the latest Sex+: Fat Shame

Oh god, it’s this girl again and her ridiculous points of argument and over-enthusiastic ways.

Listen up, you CAN tell if someone is unhealthy if they’re fat. That means, in pure scientific term, they are not burning off the calories they put on.

I know that “fat” differs from person to person due to BMI scale, height, build, etc. but look at a 18 stone man and tell me that’s healthy.

If you’re over what weight you should be, as in what your body would be optimised at, then you are fat.

Stop enabling people to continue their lives of unhealthy eating under the premise that they’re fighting “fat shame”.

A third of the world is obese. Obese. Overweight. Round. Big. And yet you say, “No, that’s fine! Get fat! Boo to the fat shamers!”

No, fuck that. Whole countries starve and you want to celebrate your gluttony?

I find this girl so fucking irritating.

^^ that is so narrow minded.
I agree with this girl, being too skinny is so unhealthy, their health deteriorates much faster than someone who is overweight. And they’re saying overweight, not obese, someone who is obese is obviously unhealthy. BMI is complete crap, it is not a good way to determine if someone’s a healthy weight or not, because muscle weighs more than fat, athletes come out as obese according to BMI when it’s completely clear they aren’t.

You cannot just look at someone and know their health, people who are considered fat can be completely healthy. You can’t look at someone who is skinny and say oh they’re obviously healthy, they might smoke, unhealthy, they might be an alcoholic, unhealthy, they may be a drug addict, unhealthy.

To use a common phrase, don’t judge a book by it’s cover.
