only fat ppl that should be shamed are fat ppl who f***ing complain about being fat but never do anything about it.
Fat shaming is dumb, I'm all about fat supporting. Invite your fat ass friends on bike rides, bring them to healthy restaurants and get them trying healthier foods. I had a european model friend in highschool when I was a fat f***, he showed me da way w/o bein mean or makin me feel like a loser.
People aren’t fat cuz they really want to be, it’s usually because they turn to eating as a way to deal with their emotions.
Shaming someone like that is just gonna make it worse. Same reasoning that harsh prison sentences don’t actually work for curbing re-offending
there are ways in which you can encourage people to become more healthy without being a d*** about it (which is what fat shaming implies)
I promise you this sxn does not partake in empathy
I extend that sentiment to ppl in general. Not only is it a sad thing to see, it's a scary thing to see.
Fat shaming is a great tool if you do it BEFORE the person becomes fat
That’s how it’s done in most of Asia where the obesity rates are extremely low. If they see you gaining a lil bit of weight they’re on your ass immediately to make sure you know you’re on a slippery slope.
Once a person is fat tho it probably only makes them feel like s***. They probably should feel like s*** tho anyways but I’m not sure if it will motivate them to clean up their act.
There’s psychological issues behind excessive weight gain and vary in severity + length of time it took to get there. You gaining 20 pounds over a handful years is different from gaining that in just a couple. Everything is simple on paper but in life it plays out very differently.
