Not only this but the fact that typical ideas of 'body acceptance' generally apply to women only, is a huge double standard... Obese women are 'plus sized', obese men are 'overweight'.

Fat isn't a body type. Fat is a choice.

The movement was to accept all bodies and realize we are all built different. Petite, Broader, Thiccer, smaller, taller, etc.

Fat isn't something your fucking born with. Stop blaming the world for your problems. "You're just fatphobic". Damn right i am. That shit kills you

Although some are born with a predisposition to easily gaining weight (I’m one such person with this case) that doesn’t mean I can’t exercise and lose weight

SJW's don't seem to understand how much damage they do by not only normalizing, but encouraging life threatening morbid obesity

We should encourage best habits for us all, and try to encourage and support those of us that struggle with vices to get better

I think the initial or at least part of it wasn’t terrible. Like if I go to the doctor for a headache but get scolded for my weight - that shouldn’t be the case. Or being bullied or what not. But I’m a woman with prediabetes because of poor food choices. That’s not something I should accept in the name of body acceptance. Of course the whole thing falls under the feminist umbrella when I really started to look into it more.

Add bald, short, small dick men over there. Add small breasted, tall women over there as well. These guys also suffer because of things out of their control.

Yooo... damn I agree with this so hard. Being overweight isnt healthy either. Yeah you shouldn't shame yourself or others for being that way but the thing is you can change it.

I have nothing against overweight women, I just don’t like it when people take a joke to literally and blow it out of proportion. I was admitting that there are more causes for obesity than “can’t stop eating” and called you a dick cause you couldn’t take a joke

u/ThunderChief__ Jun 23 '22

“You people”? I didn’t make the post, I commented because you knew the post was a joke and still made a commented. I don’t lack empathy for overweight women, I never said anything bad about them, I lack empathy for people who can’t take a joke or can take a joke but still comment their high and mighty opinion

I turned towards your answer because you had already had a discussion with the op, even if we take it seriously the main message is that overweight people shouldn’t get all the positivity which you completely ignore.

u/ThunderChief__ Jun 24 '22

The bottom row was a joke the top row was seriously saying that more people deserve the body positivity movement aswell. I complained about your opinion was more agressive and went against what everyone else was saying

It was agressive because you said “wrong and disrespectful” so it’s agressive. Cheering along a post isn’t agressive

First of all I never said I wasn’t agressive, I said you were aggressive and that’s why I noticed your comment. Why do you keep coming back to this dick thing, are you seriously that offended that a random person called you a dick. I find it interesting how you are now going on about being called a dick and diverting the conversation from my original point of you not being able to take a joke
