Do some people really think its okay to comment on someone weight gain

I know I hate when people point out facts that I prefer to ignore what's their problem .

Let me see if I've got this right. You are going to cause all kinds of work place strife because some woman made a thoughtless comment about your weight, because you let yourself get fat?
Her comment was a thoughtless spur of the moment mistake, but your reaction is a well thought out, mean spirited campaign.
Sounds awfully childish and counterproductive to me.

Some people are classless idiots who lack manners.

Well not in public. If you are really that concerned you should talk to them after you pull them off alone.

The truth does tend to hurt yeah

As rude as it is, there are some cultures where commenting on weight isn't that big a deal.

In some asian cultures, some might even comment on how you need to stop eating to your face right in a freaking party. >.>

Ya people dont like being told theyre fat.

Very rude and also racist.

I hear this often but more so from male to male or female to male . I think everyone has heard the "look at you , packing on the pounds are yeah? " comment from a friend or something . I don't think it's right for anyone to feel comfortable saying especially someone who isn't very close to you even more so . I know some people do it to hurt others intentionally or look better themselves / feel better but it's definitely insensitive . I would only really mention it to someone if I felt like it could be a cause for concern on their health but I doubt whatever you put on was . I like thicker women and not little tiny French fry sized chicks so I couldn't even see myself making the comment but if my partner was just aimlessly putting on weight for no reason and a substantial amount I might mention it but I mean , a female at work or something I wouldn't find it appropriate as it's really none of my business . I think you should chalk it up to ignorance and forget about it , don't let it bother you :) weight is something we have control over and it's a lot easier to lose than a poor attitude or personality so smile in light of that :D when she starts packing on the pounds I am sure it will dawn on her the comments she made .. and it will look good on her , wont it ? smile sweetie , people will be ignorant no matter what day and age ... we just have to look above it and not let it bother us because then they get what they want .

Are you a lesbian. If not forget about the cunt.

It's an asshole move/thing to say. If someone was actually concerned about your health they'd at least take you aside in private. I think people who feel the need to do such things are trying to feel better about themselves by putting someone else down.

It's dumb that she told you that you should have told her if it hurt you.... you DID tell her. If someone does that to you again shame them... say in front of everyone "do you REALLY believe that was appropriate to say to me in public?" The person will be shamed/shocked and slink back.

Depends on the relationship with the person and the context in which it was said.

I'd like your coworker. At least she appears to say what she thinks and she's not doing some coy run around of "You look really....healthy....these days".

It seems like she didn't realize that would have been a rude comment. If she is trying to be friendly and has apologized I would forgive her and move on, otherwise you may create a hostile workplace environment if you stay angry.

Some people are stupid and/ or rude. Don't let it bother you. If you want to lose weight do it for yourself if not, fine. Maybe pointing out her rudeness did her a favor and she might think next time before opening her mouth.
