No, there's a lot of people with these thoughts. You should look into the fat acceptance movement if you feel this way. You'll learn a lot about the discrimination against fat people. I agree though; people bully and discrimination against fat people all the time, and if they're not doing that, they're making a big deal out of it. I absolutely despise it when an obese person calls themselves fat and then someone says "You're not fat, you're beautiful!" Even if the person who says that has good intentions (they almost always do), when you say things like that, you're implying that being fat is something to have a low self esteem over and that thin is beautiful. I wish people wouldn't make comments about weight or pointed it out because it just does not matter.
I feel actually guilty when I see obese people...
