Why do people hate the fattys?

people who hate fat people are generally those who are subconsciously afraid of being fat themselves...

I'm really strongly opposed to the "fat acceptance" movement. I don't give a shit if you're thin and beautiful, it has nothing to do with glamour. I just want to see society as a whole be healthy, capable, and progressive. It bothers me to see these delusional ways of thinking about food and about body image. It bothers me to see these people self-destructing, and it especially bothers me to see the rest of everyone just tolerating it. That's why I hate seeing fat people. It's their own body and I don't think too highly of them if they just let it end up like that.

fat people complain alot

They don't hate the fat in the people; everyone can get fat! I just think they hate the laziness of most fat people. Why don't they just exercise? no one should be 100 lbs overweight.

i dont hate fat people. i hate fat people who complain about being fat. but a lot of fat hiding the real body underneath just isnt attractive.

I've thought about this a fair bit, as I used to be fat, and I'm now thin. Be warned that what I say goes against all political correctness.

As a male, I find it unpleasant to look at a female who is fat. It can create feelings of revulsion. If she physically gets close, or starts making any kind of sexual advances, I can be completely grossed out. These feelings are automatic, and have nothing to do with what I might think of her as a person. From talking to other guys, I think this is fairly universal, although the intensity of the feeling, and the degree of fatness required to trigger it, I'm sure varies considerably.

I believe such negative feelings have nothing to do with social conditioning, and everything to do with evolution. For whatever reason, men evolved to be attracted to young women who have a narrow waist, smooth unblemished skin, developed breasts, etc. Fatness, especially in the waist, detracts from that. Nevertheless, if I get to know the woman, over time, the negative feelings will subside. They are strongest when I first meet her, and it makes absolutely no difference whether she appears confident about herself or not.

In and of itself, this has nothing to do with ego. However, knowing that other men will also have such negative feelings, under certain circumstances it can be embarrassing to be seen with a fat woman by other men, if I have a desire to earn or retain their respect. That's where ego can come in. It can create the desire to point out that "she's just a friend" or to otherwise make it clear that I have no sexual interest in her. I can see how some guys might be tempted take this a step further, and even insult her, in order to save face with their male friends.

I agree with Galaxy500 that a lot of people make the mental judgment that a fat person must be lazy or be lacking willpower. However, I make no such mental judgment, especially now that I understand what the underlying cause is. Such mental judgment is predicated on the widely-held belief that weight gain is the result of eating too much or exercising too little. This premise, however, is false. All the evidence points to a different underlying cause: Weight gain is the result of eating foods that contain a high percentage of carbohydrates, especially refined carbohydrates. This is the basis for whatever mental judgments I now make, whenever I see a fat person, male or female.

oh and health problems occur at both ends of the weight spectrum. I learned that :(

i dont eat junk food, candy, chocolate, butterfingers for breakfast, 4 fried chickens and a coke, i usually eat one meal a day, im still fat not GOD DAMN fat but fat nonetheless, and the thing is everyone assumes fat people just hang out and eat all day, i work full time im on my feet all 8-10 hours a day, ive tried eatin healthy nothing changed, ive tried excersizing more nothin happened, im just meant to be this big, and ive been the same shape and same weight for 9 years

Becuase fat people do not have souls. Only until they shed thier pounds will god save them.

They are just jealous of our epic stomach drumming skills.

I have like 30 pounds of overweight and It's been a struggle for me to kept them off. It's hard because you want to be healthy and eat good and exercise but when you're overweight I feel like it's harder. It's hard to look in the mirror cause the true is, this is something we do to ourselves. But to me people as me or more fat are very misunderstood. We are not eating all the time. Some have a disease or are just tired and can't exercise as much. I used to weight 120 and I'm 5,3, But I did exercise all the time. Eating good and exercising was the only thing I think off at that time. I start doing a master degree (I'm a 29 years old woman) that's very demanding, stop the diet and the exercise and I'm 150 now. :( It's sad. So to all of those who are skinny be blesses with the skinniest bodies forever but remember fat people must of the time need compassion. Im not saying is good to be the local customer at mcdonald or to not move in all day and just be plain lazy, no that's not good but some of us are not like that. Some of us without a strict regimen can't be skinny. Sorry need it to pour it out of chest. Good Day

It all revolves around sex

I'm overweight, but am overly active. I don't complain a lot, am not lazy, and have sweated a bunch even when I wasn't heavy. Sweating is healthy and good for your pores. I have nice skin. My fit and trim wife loves me. I have had thyroid cancer, unknowingly, for years, and now my thyroid has been removed. My synthroid fails to properly regulate my body. I eat no more than my wife, and exercise no less. I walk 3 miles a day, 4-5 days a week. Quickly. I work construction. I work out.I try hard to lose weight, but the only thing that works is low-carb. I shed weight quickly, but never keep it down. 6ft tall, and 270lbs. What really disgusts me is the people who let themselves get beyond their own mobility. No excuse. I have 2 herniated discs, and am busy all the time, despite the pain. The fatass in the scooter at Wallyworld needs to walk. Like a catch-22. People get fat, stop moving, get fatter, can't get away from the fridge, hurt their backs with the extra weight they are supporting that their bodies are too weak to hold up, and get even fatter. Get depressed, and eat more. The more fat cells their bodies have, the louder the cells complain about wanting more.
Guy hadta get cut outta his house to go to hospital. Who is the ENABLER who shoves food down their throats? Some skinny, probably.......

A waste of extra skin lol ok jk I just hate lazy fatties

body shame. people make themselves feel better by telling other people they're not good enough. they exploit insecurities and feel powerful. its a disgrace.

sometimes fat people bug me if they're really mean and use their fat as a victim's shield. i think they can be excessive and lack control but i know i have to really get to know a person before i can judge them that way.

but if someone really hates fatties its just like any other kind of hate. homophobia, racism, etc.

I don't mind fat people, I just find many of them have overbearing personalities =s

I think people secretly love differences.

Okay, I'm not miss "skinny" But I am not fat. But I know I am very unattractive to heavier people. Because most of the time, those people over eat. And I don't know if its just me or not, but I find it disgusting that people have to chow down an obsessive amount of food. And unless they have that problem where their minds don't trigger the body that they are no longer hungry, people keep eating cause they are eating to fast. So when I see a heavier set person all I can think of is them vacuuming up a huge plate of food into their mouths.

Another thing that is unattractive, is that heavier people seem to sweat more than others. Which is unsanitary.

Believe me, I feel horrible for thinking this way, because I am no where near perfect, but maybe this is how others feel too.

And that is why people do not like the fattys.

It's an ego thing. I know that some people out there who work out on the reg have a slight ego and make mental judgements when they see "fat" people about laziness and willpower, but the rest is just a societal stigma. You know how you have overweight depressed people and then really confident overweight people? Well, confidence ensures a better outlook on life and those types usually are surrounded by great friends and always are out doing something. I know what you mean though - I've had an opportunity to see society through a hot body, an overly buff body, an anorexic body, and an overweight body. It sucks because everyone takes everything at face value - it's like looking at a 50 yr. old and never thinking of what they must have looked like when they were younger. Society does judge on appearance but it's what you think about it that gives it life. You can easily rise above their naive tendencies.

they have no self respect or self control.

I am fat and i have skinny, fat, chubby, short, and tall friends. I also work out :P i dont think they hate fat people, i think they hate how we dont do as much stuff as them lol

i see it as a weakness thats why i dislike them. if you cant control how much you eat then i say your pathetic and fail at life
