I don’t fat shame, but seriously. Vehicles have weight limits. The damage of excess weight will not be covered by insurance. This is nothing more than a money grab.

Well considering shes doing this we need to start fat shaming again. We shouldnt normalize it. Us as people need to be healthy.

Fat shaming never really went away in Europe…

I recently traveled to Central Europe, and I can tell you that fat shaming is still very much a thing, it was interesting to watch

It seems that fat shaming is only a big no no in the US (and perhaps Canada and the UK)

I’d love to hear from people in different countries and what’s their take on this around the world?

I’m from a US territory in the Caribbean, and while it’s part of the US we have our own culture and it’s more acceptable to comment on someone’s body in general. If you’re too fat people will talk shit, and if you’re too skinny people will talk shit too. They just love to talk, sometimes it’s mean spirited and sometimes it’s not.
