Anyone sick of fat acceptance and the 'big is beautiful' campaign?

That is exactly why I would like the NHS to stop treating people with self-caused illnesses, illnesses caused by smoking, alcohol, drugs and unhealthy food. We humans hate losing more than we love winning, so many people will be persuaded to be more fit. It would also save the NHS millions every year, and at the same time, if someone wants to wreck their body, it's their choice. We shouldn't be paying for their treatment.

At the end of the day, big is not beautiful but looks lazy. Why should we be accepting that it's ok to be obese? It's sending the message to children that it's ok to be twice the weight of let's say a five year old. Fat people come across as greedy and I'm sick of seeing people too huge to fit in my field of vision.

I think you need to reconsider what you've posted. Some people genetically cannot control their size and obesity can, for some people be an uncontrollable thing.
Fat shaming is not making anyone skinnier, is it?

Yeah. And i dont know why people pay attention to fat people in general. Why not call ugly people ugly or call dumb people dumb.

So, a few thoughts:
- don't think the campaign you refer to exists. All I am aware of is a legitimate push back against models having to be anorexic
- body weight is not a simplistic matter, as one might hope the intelligentsia of the nation, present on TSR, might be able to grasp
- probably best to just mind your own business and focus on addressing your own odious issues

The person who made this thread doesn't get that.

Hardly prominent if I with my enormous intellect haven't heard of it, if there are no English disciples and as their website lacks any credibility.

I'm sorry but being overweight/obese significantly increases the chances of getting diabetes, heart attacks, strokes etc and costs the health service millions every year. Tax payers should not pay for these lifestyles and we certainly should not have to accept fat as normal and beautiful.

You sure being overweight/obese is the issue? Is it the fat? Or is it the diet and lack of exercise? I'd definitely say it is more the latter. Plenty of fat rugby players who are healthy and don't end up dying of heart attacks.

Look up Health At Every Size (HAES). You'll probably wish you hadn't, but fat-is-healthy groups do exist and are relatively prominent.

Exactly, this thread is a bunch of bull.
Such horrible ignorance.

Being fat is being unhealthy. Whether in the short term or the long term it will get to you.

Because being fat is a problem for society and is NOT healthy. Do you realise how much fat people cost the NHS and the tax payer? Just because they cannot be bothered to get off the sofa.

There's always the pro-ana on the other side of the spectrum.

Rugby players are hardly the prime example of health, going by injuries sustained. Look at the ears!

Pro ana?! I've never mentioned anything like that. You cannot deny that being obese significantly increases health conditions. Hundreds of tests have confirmed this.

Firstly, not all 'fat' people can't be bothered to get off a sofa.
Secondly, bigoted people like you are the cause of world wide problems so get a life.
Thirdly, what's wrong with not being bothered to get off a sofa. I bet you do it.
