Fat

Postby Continentalia » Wed Apr 17, 2013 5:54 pm

Are you, or have you or will you be, fat?
Do you know anybody that is fat?

How do you feel about fatness?
Are you an advocate of fat pride?
Fat nationalism?

I am not fat. It is very hard for me to gain weight, actually.
Anyway, I don't like to see fat people, but I have no problem with them just because they're fat.

I feel that fatness, the type due to diet, is just a symptom of the current Situation, which is why I don't like to see fatness.
I do feel that there are certain people out there that are chubby, because that's how they are, and that society shouldn't be chastising them and making them feel bad.

In a different Situation, a healthy one, everyone would look good. Is what I feel.
Maybe posting in every single thread will make us wise.

Fatness, and an obesity problem, is a sign of prosperity. Be glad we're not having a emaciation problem, or famines.

As for the social status of fat people, I think they get too much shit, though they're not castigated nearly as much as smokers.

I am not fond of the "fat pride" routine. There's very little good about being fat, and it tends to make it a lot harder to be fit. Exercising becomes more difficult. You don't want to tease or bully people for being fat, but your body fat percentage correlates pretty strongly with health outcomes, and obesity is viewed as a public health problem for generally sound reasons.

I try to focus on the exercise and fitness aspect rather than the size aspect. It is unhealthy to be focused on being big / small; you should be focused on being fit / healthy.

Nope, and probably won't; my body seems to burn through anything without gaining an ounce, and I plan on staying as physically active in the future as I am now.
Do you know anybody that is fat?

A little around 50% of NSers are American, y'know. Of course I know some fat people.
How do you feel about fatness?

Meh. I'm not one to judge others, and I don't worry about it myself.
Are you an advocate of fat pride?
Fat nationalism?

People really think this, it's part of the sin of gluttony.

Praepropere – eating too soon
Laute – eating too expensively
Nimis – eating too much
Ardenter – eating too eagerly
Studiose – eating too daintily
Forente – eating wildly

liposuction*

Also, it isn't nearly that simple. It's expensive and carries health risks, as I hear.

Don't judge others and they won't judge you.

That exists? But, it's cool, I guess...

Fat nationalism?
Now, I just think you're making stuff up.

Well, not to be rude, but being fat has health risks.

A good way to reduce weight....smoke cigarettes instead of eating.

While I may hold many stereotypes of fat people, I really don't care that much about them. It's their life, so it doesn't affect me.

Although, I'm sometimes saddened by the sheer amount of fat people in this country.

I'm not irked by fatness. However, when people let themselves get into a bad shape due to bad diet choices combined with a lack of exercise, it makes me sad.
