It's bullshit, fat people shouldn't be celebrated. It's unhealthy and disgusting and they have nothing to be proud of. Since when is a lack of self control and disciple something that should be rewarded?

Agreed, but not to that extent. More importantly, it's about being healthy on the INSIDE. You never know how unhealthy you are until you get a physical and blood test. How would I know? I was there once. I thought everything was fine and dandy, until I visited my doctor. He made me realize I was a fat lard piece of shit. Since then I've lost 40 pounds and I'm feeling better than ever, inside and out.

Wow

Whatever makes you lose weight I guess. I could hardly feel sorry for you if he said that because it made you into a healthier and better person today.

What should they do just stay inside and hide under the stairs until they're a size 2? Fuck off, Asshole. You're a tool!

Although not "ideal", I happen to find that kind of confidence a turn-on. The girl in the black and white photo in front of the stairs is pretty sexy. Would love to meet her.

This article is stating that the new "average" is size 16-18.

No, they should go outside and exercise and lay off the fast food. So many overly sensitive fat people these days acting like it's not their fault that they're fat. Are you one of them?

And ... hyperbole's lost on him. I wouldn't sweat it, he'll be 45, 300lbs, eating microwave wings on his barcalounger before he knows it.

I like to celebrate minding my own fucking business.

That article is typical click bait bullshit to drive traffic to their site. Buzzfeed is a garbage site which pretty much reposts everything from 4Chan, Reddit, and 9Gag anyway so there's really no reason to take them seriously. What's the average size of an American woman? Why do you care? And why are you arguing about it?

[Beartato]

Doesn't bother me, I've always hated how the mainstream media pushes the "ideal" body when people come in all shapes and sizes.

Yeah..I don't know man..feeling like people either don't give a shit or have a small grasp of the English language--which I'm completely understanding of, and willing to try to work with. But the Bullshit younger white trash ghetto entitled generation...get lost.

They are not healthy and I'm willing to bet that they are not truly happy with themselves. However, there are plenty of skinny people who are unhealthy too. And there are also lots of body builders who are overly obsessed and are not mentally healthy as well. There has to be a happy medium. Everyone should limit their fast food and should also exercise a bit. It's not easy and I know that very well. If I didn't exercise and ate what I wanted, I could probably get to size 16 in a couple months.

It's very hard to tell if someone is healthy by looking at them. Just because someone has weight on them does not mean they are not healthy. That is the problem with society.
