Why do people get so overweight? 1. It is unattractive. 2. It makes you seem ill disciplined. 3. It is unhealthy. 4. It makes life practically difficult. 5. It is bad for hormones, energy and happiness. 6. Fat people earn less and can get into far less jobs. However, people still continue to eat, eat, eat. So I was wondering what the opinion on this is, in this online bdsm community is? Is it an obsession with physical pleasure like a drug addiction? If so should they be treated like drug addicts and put in prison :).
1. It's unattractive to some and not to others. There is a whole subset of people who adore the BBWs/BHMs of the world. Keep in mind that mean-spirited judgmentalism and closed-mindedness is also unattractive.
2. Being fat is not always a matter of being ill disciplined. Being mean-spirited, judgmental and closed-minded almost always is, so what's your excuse, OP?
3. Yes, fat can be unhealthy, being mean-spirited, etc, is also unhealthy. You're 32 and you should know that by now.
4. Your attitude makes life difficult for a lot of other people, so are you going to change it? I doubt that very much.
5. Sometimes hormones are what causes overweight. Yes, it can be bad for energy but there are also underweight and average weight individuals out there that have the energy of slugs. There are also a good chunk of genuinely happy overweight people out there.
6. Fat people earn less and it's harder for them to get jobs not necessarily because of being fat but because of people like the OP who are mean-spirited, judgmental and closed-minded. They can be just as qualified or more than "healthy weight" individuals for a particular job but people like the OP make it difficult for them.
Putting fat people in rehab or prison will not be a cure-all as there are many different reasons for people being overweight. I for one, have my genetics stacked against me and some health issues contributing to my difficulty with losing weight. I've only been able to get down to a certain weight no matter how many diet & exercise regimes I've been on, and I've been on a lot of them over the last 40 years. I had gastric bypass surgery three and a half weeks ago and I've already lost 31 lbs and 5" off my butt. That's how desperate I was to lose my excess weight and all the complications that go with it. OP, how about thinking up an original idea for a thread instead of one that's as old as the hills?
