Morbid obesity isn’t funny or desirable. I don’t think we should mock it but certainly not celebrate it. If this poor girl lives long enough she will be facing multiple chronic health issues.

My fat BIL who does not have the will to lose 60 lbs is now plagued with type 11 diabetes to the point of starting insulin next week, necropsis of the feet to the point he shuffles around, renal problems and God knows what else. All due to overweight.

RE:”There are some men (a very small number) who are attracted to obese women. I think it’s a fetish and an unhealthy one at that.”

Like if she rolled over in her sleep?

There are some men (a very small number) who are attracted to obese women.

Mighty upset.

Her health is none of my business?

By that logic, my health care is none of my government’s business either

Fair is fair.

Is Michelin looking for a new spokesperson/mascot?

I like a sexy thick female but this is way too much!

I didn't know who this lady was before last week so, I'm fine with not caring about her health or anything else about her. But, the glorification of obesity in our culture is a problem. There are all kinds of reasons for it I'm sure, but I place a lot of blame on the Federal government and the nutritional standards they have been pushing since at least the 70s. That recommended food pyramid is killing people. Grain should not make up 40-50 percent of the human diet. I've long suspected that those health standards were political payoffs to grain producing states in the same way that ethanol is

One so inclined to do it better insist on top, bottom could be fatal!

Not even with your d*ck!

Then stop taxing soda, banning cigarettes, etc.

They can do what they like, it is their magazine. I don’t have any problem with fighting the devaluation of a person as a PERSON for being overweight.

I do have a problem if they are going to try to tell me THAT woman’s body shape is physically attractive, because it isn’t, and no amount of social justice warrioring is going to make any normal man think otherwise.

And the idiotic tattoos only make her look less attractive, and stupid to boot.

I cannot stand this leftist crap. I don’t judge PEOPLE and who they are on the basis of their physical appearance, but I get pissed when they try to MAKE me feel like there is something wrong with me for thinking a woman who has a physical appearance like that is wrongly “devalued” by normal people because she is GROSSLY obese and has a bunch of dumbass tattoos on her skin. That I DO have a problem with.

See #35

“How dare you say that to my face?”

“I’d say it behind your back, but my car’s only got a half tank of gas.”

[Responsibility2nd]

I’d hit it. But would she even know it?

[Roman_War_Criminal]

SELF!

She fits the cover perfectly for this GLUTTONOUS, SELFISH, PRIDEFUL, SLOTHY, and IMMORAL Magazine.
