I don't dislike fat people, just like I don't dislike smokers. But I do agree that people who choose very unhealthy lifestyles should have to pay more for health insurance. Smokers already do pay more, and many companies have started upping the cost to obese people. Only 1-2% of people have one of the handful of metabolic diseases that cause excessive fat gain with an otherwise healthy diet and lifestyle. And testing easily determines who they are and who's using "I have a medical condition" as an excuse.
What does irritate me is when a fat person looks at me with disgust and says "you're so skinny." Why the insult? I'm fit and my weight is actually towards the higher end of the "healthy" range for my height. I guess compared to them I do look skinny.
Is it normal to really dislike fat people?
