And sadly they do.

I've experienced fat shaming from my relatives and strangers making less than subtle comments about weight and the need for exercise.

But what was most surprising is how your value as a person seerms to take a hit in that people disregard your intelligence and accomplishments and you become just another overindulgent fattie.

I've also discovered that folks with major personal flaws that most likely cannot be fixed with a diet or workout routine, assume some type of moral superiority over you because they're not overweight. Its comical and kinda sad to watch.

I mean, unless you are a youtuber or something, you probably didn't do this on purpose. You let yourself go, and it is important to understand that rather than try to redefine it as something you did on purpose.

Like, it happens to a lot of people, there is no shame in it.

That's my point.
Its absolutely not for you to decide that. You keep your focus on you and allow others to be themselves free of your judgmental vitriol.

Now CE is reading minds.

No one can purposely allow themselves to put on weight as a social experiment. They're just indulgent and letting themselves go.

With a lot of folks, they are insecure with themselves. Seeing a fat person, someone they believe has a visible flaw, makes them feel better about their insecurities and themselves.
So they assume this "not fat" moral high ground.

Like I said, I was being ridiculed by addicts and others with glaring flaws that cannot be fixed with a diet or workout routine. Yet they felt like they had moral high ground.

Folks are conditioned to be that way though and most are simply now wise enough to realize this far less accept the reality that overweight folks have just about the same life expectancy as normal weight folks.

I've heard about that but I'd rather gain 15lbs that lung cancer.

I honestly did it to see how folks at work would treat me. Wasn't expecting the shaming from relatives.

Folks with a double digit IQs become "I am not fat" sages with wisdom to impart.

i mean if anyone deserves fat shaming its people who do it on purpose for an agenda. why would you do that to yourself? how many years of your life have you shaved away to prove a point? "aha! gotcha!"

there are some people who can't help that they are overweight because of the culture they grew up in and were raised in before they knew better, genetic predispositions, medication use, etc.

im beginning to think this post is a meme, trying to recreate the episode where Homer wears the moo moo and works from home.

The problem is, some folks actually have a problem losing weight and become upset when someone mentions that they've purposely gained weight for whatever reason. They take it almost as if that person is trivializing their struggles to manage their weight.

Understand that that has never been my intention.

I will also admit that I use to be someone with very strong feelings about folks who are overweight. However, I never went out of my way to get in their faces and express disgust or disdain to them, which is what I experienced.

Its more than just stupid though, its a lie. Like, its hard not to mock someone when they are lying about doing something stupid of all things. It'd be one thing if he said, "I put on a fat suit for one day to see if people would treat me differently" or some shit. But there are very few circumstances where people get fat on purpose (They are an actor putting on weight for a role, they are a bodybuilder and are dirty bulking, which is also stupid but at least in an understandable way, ect), and the scenario outlined by the TC just isn't one of them.
