To be fair, while Lizzo is overweight, she can actually pull her weight. She like an NFL linebacker.

Khalid is just fat and stands sometimes

It wouldnt make sense to because DJ Khaled (and Rick Ross) actually acknowledge that their weight is unhealthy and both have talked about the steps they have taken to get their weight under control.

Where the hell are all these obese people in america and how can I move there so I dont feel as bad about my morbid obesity. Currently in Miami and everyone is either this gorgeous Adonis or aphrodite. Not a single fat person in sight. Cant even go out because of it.

When anyone starts flaunting their weight as healthy, being proud of it, sexualizing it, flaunting it, etc they need to be shot down like the Luftwaffe.

Yall on the wrong side of history and looking like fools.

None of these people actually care about health, they just want people to bully and feel superior to.

Does she say she's healthy or that people should be fat? Seems like she's generally just saying she's fine with how she looks currently. Which is fine

I'm a few years we'll start seeing articles and stories about her wanting to lose weight probably.. But it's whatever.

Because everyone already makes fun of fat guys and they all admit they're fat as fuck and it's unhealthy and disgusting.

It's really mostly women that try to con people in thinking being fat is ok.

Why do people pretend any of this is about health? Its about people being offended at her appearance because they dont like fat people.

They dont give one shit about her health.

Last time I visited I went to a Taco Bell. At least 3 looked like they had meth for their lunch break and a couple others might have been popping pills. I ain't fucking anybody from Kentucky.

Good point, that makes it even worse because she has less excuses for it and instead she's using the care that should go to others less fortunate.

In fact it's THE worst in her case because she's used her obesity to get rich! So now it's like she has to stay fat.

Scientists now think that being overweight can protect your health

Around a dozen years ago, researchers noticed that some patients with chronic conditions such as heart disease fared better than others. This should have been encouraging news, perhaps a clue to future treatments. Instead, researchers were baffled. Because the factor that seemed to be protecting these patients was fat: They were all overweight or mildly obese.

It seems its always women justifying their weight as acceptable/attractive/sexy than it is men. Now what that is an indication of in society I dont know. But being overweight is not healthy. Take it from a guy that married an overweight woman because I loved her despite that. But two years after we got married she had gastric bypass surgery because her doctor was concerned about her health. 18 years later shes still kept the weight off and her health has improved.

There is a difference between healthy, overweight, obese, and morbidly obese.

Obesity is an epidemic and instead of doing our best to solve the issues, we have embraced it as "beautiful." It is unhealthy. The fat pride movement is so insane that they went after Ashley Graham with torches after she realized her size was not healthy and lost the weight:https://www.nationalreview.com/2016/07/ashley-graham-plus-size-model-losing-weight/

They threatened another Plus-sized model with threats after she dropped her weight: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3844482/They-told-jump-bridge-kill-Plus-size-model-shed-250LBS-reveals-s-sent-DEATH-THREATS-fat-activists-angry-weight-loss.html

This is the main point.

The "its cuz she's womyn" reasoning is dishonest at best. You know who was very obese at one point? Adele. Sure, she got some comments/jokes about her weight, but it was never like Lizzo.

That's because Adele was about her music and vocals and didn't frolic around wearing G strings and twerked in front of children.

Boogie got a lot of shit about his weight and he is a man (https://youtubensfw.com/watch?v=B-eDNt8e5X4 ) , the point is null.
