we treat smokers, and drinkers, and druggies as if they have NO control over themselves.....all kinds of programs and pills and clinics and in the case of drinkers and druggies, they even get disability payments ......
why is society's outlook at obesity so hateful?.....why is it the average drunk will get more sympathy?
key to obesity IMO in our society....too large of portions ( remember when going to Mc's was to get a small hamburger, a coke, and a small fry, all for under $1?), too much tv and the internet, too little walking, too little drinking of good old plain water, eating out too much, etc etc.....you get the point...
Sex.
Obesity makes a woman sexually unavailable, so men hate her.
You don't see women posting fat pictures of women all over FR, to jeer and deride.
