One-third of the world’s population is fat, yet fat people are discriminated against in all aspects of daily life. For over 50 years, NAAFA has worked to make the world a better place for fat people through education, advocacy, and support. We are a multigenerational, intersectional social justice organization creating opportunity for big bodied people and building community for fat people and our loved ones. Our work towards #EqualityAtEverySize is changing the world!

The National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance, no joke.

I guess this man is President of the organization.

There were lots of people who made a good living being fat, Oliver Hardy, Lou Costello, Fatty Arbuckle(his downfall was being a pervert, not being fat), and WC Fields.

The best way to help a fat person is to ridicule his foolish eating habits in hope that he will not like the public lambasting and might actually change his unhealthy ways.

I don’t know why you have to bash Catholics about this?

Don’t let them go above the first floor or the land mass could tip over.

Aside from Guam tipping over, it reminds me of the weight watcher office in Europe that collapsed a few years ago when members came in all at once for their weight check.

Being thin is where it's been, but being fat is where it's at.

Blame the nanny state.
I don't harass fat people, even when I have to take a detour around them.

What would happen if there was a Weight Watcher convention in California?

I could be sitting here in Florida watching The View on TV and all of a sudden I go splash in the Pacific Ocean south of Hawaii.

Deleted scene showing Mr. Creosote walking on the sidewalk toward the restaurant. Soundtrack is someone singing "I love my fat and my fat loves me".

I have struggled with weight my entire life. I've lost 30# in fifth grate (while growing), 60+# 2x, and 100# once. I need to do it again.

A goal driven person like myself can lose weight; but maintaining a weight has been a real struggle

Memo to All Fat People:

Please be advised that your obesity and disgusting appearance is due to your own choices and lifestyle.

It is your problem and your burden (pun intended), not mine.

I refuse to willingly make my life or my community more difficult, inconvenient and expensive to accommodate you and your lifestyle.

Eat less and healthier. Get off your fat slovenly azz and sign-up for a gym membership at Planet Fitness for $10/month and then take a walk in the morning and evening. Do something for yourself and stop blaming me for f’ing problems.

Sincerely,
MOC

Gluttony is a deadly sin. They need to shut their pie holes.

Women in prison should all be on the nutri-system diet. It’s about $300/month-save taxpayer money. Upon release they will get hit-on more often than they had before, making them happier too. Man-juice will do that. Recidivism will go down until they put the pounds back on.

“his downfall was being a pervert, not being fat”

Well, both of them were key factors.

“One-third of the world’s population is fat”

Doubtful. Obesity is pretty rare outside the 1st world, unless you are in Samoa or something.
