why do some people make fun or hate overweight people?

Question

YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES U CAN'T STOP YOUR SELF FROM GETTING OVERWEIGHT

They have small minds, which makes them heartless

Answer 1

Think about it. How often do you see fat or obese people made fun of in movies or on T.V.? It has become socially acceptable to poke fun at heavy people. People who hate overweight people don't have to struggle to maintain an acceptable weight. They don't understand that it is difficult or next to impossible for many people to do what comes naturally to them. It's a general lack of empathy for fellow human beings.

Answer 2

To make themselves feel better by putting down someone else.
People make fun of things they don't understand or are afraid of, it is sad to say that someone usually gets hurt in the process.
If all the people that aren't overweight were made to wear fats suits for a week, they would not be so quick to judge others.

Answer 3

I wouldn't go as far as to say hate, but people do judge overweight people. I believe it's because they look different and it's unhealthy. I just can't imagine doing that to your body!

Answer 4

They have small minds, which makes them heartless.

Answer 5

They do it because they see something they fear in it (likely due to their own unresolved unhealthy body issues like anorexia or steroidism or just plain ole narcissism) and we as humans generally hate and humiliate the things we fear.

Ignore small minded bigots like that....they're not worth it and will get theirs. Karma is a bi_tch, as I like to say.

Answer 6

Some people are miserable in thier own lives and "Misery loves Company" Some just love to hate,and they hate anything and everything! They are pathetic loosers!

Answer 7

they obviously have nothing better to do. I think those people have a low self-esteem so they try to make themselves feel better by making fun of others.

Answer 8

almost consistently those who do this struggle through from self-loathing and a want for gratification. they are seeking for fulfillment and doing it by the counterfeit of bullying and one-upmanship. they are many times somewhat damage and infrequently traumatized cowards who use choosing on others as a smokescreen to conceal who they somewhat are, on condition that who they somewhat are is ugly, even to themselves.

Answer 9

the people who hate or dislike overweight people are either those who hate themselves so they take it out on others or they believe stereotypes
