Why would you?
Have you ever seen one of those TV shows, when someone dresses up as an obese person? How many people are actually nice to them? 0?

No....whether you are obese or not you are still the same in God's eyes. He made us all unique in our own unique way. Just because you or me might be very different in size doesn't mean that I or you does'nt have feelings. Its very sad and disturbing that society has poisoned peoples minds, to believe that people should be a size 3. Unfortunately, everyones not able to be that size. I understand that we all should fight to be more healthy, but if you're obessed, try to eat better foods that are good for you . Take a walk sometimes to get the cardiovascular going. Good luck 2 you, because, I'm fighting the battle also. If you can't see to treat people equally, then there's obviously a problem within self.

Being obese myself, I don't treat others any differently than I would like to be treated--just as another good person plugging along in a lifetime of ups and downs. Fortunately for me, many more ups than downs. And to be honest, I would say people have treated me well. If there has been backstabbing re: my weight, I have never been aware of it. People are basically good.

i think that america as a whole needs to get over the whole body image thing. we are told from a very early age what we are supposed to look like and do.
women ...look like barbie ...haveing a brain is illegal but you must drive a cute sports car to look sexy.
man ....look like either ken,,or G.I.Joe. better be able to do everythign around the house and work every electronic gadget without the use of the 500 page instruction manual...must drive either a sports car or some monster truck or SUV.
noone should play Dungeons and Dragons or Magic the gathering
yadda yadda yadda..
i am 28 years old
i am 6 foot 3 tall
i weigh near to 400 lbs
and i play every geek game on the planet
why...because i live in america and i can.
i do not care what others think of me and i judge others on their personality not their looks.
It really pisses me off that the U.S. government is basicaly saying that prejustice gainst fat people is ok.

Yes. As a fat person, I tend to trust fat people in certain situations more easily than I do thin people until I get to know them. I'm sometimes embarrassed to eat in front of thin people I don't know and even some that I do on occasion, but I feel more comfortable around a fat person because I wouldn't expect to be criticized. I often think thin people are scrutinizing every morsel I put in my mouth. Also, think people often don't understand that it isn't about the food for fat people. Food is often the drug of choice used by many of us as a coping mechanism. It often annoys me when even people like Dr. Phil who wrote a diet book ask successful users of his program if they were hungry on the plan. If it were only about hunger, I wouldn't be fat.

I try not to as I once was quite large and I know how that feels. It sucks when people either giggle at you or avoid making any eye contact with you. I do hate it when some people use their weight as a medical excuse to get out of things, though.

No. I've had a few good friends who were obese, and I've seen how much that kind of thing hurts them.

in case you sense terrible about it and also you comprehend it really is undesirable...Then end. next time you're wondering rude concepts, positioned your self in that persons position. a great number of overweight human beings can no longer help it as a results of thyroid issues and genetics. Being judgemental receives you nowhere in existence. It basically exhibits warning signs of immaturity to me.

I do not personally treat them differently but I think they do get treated differently in society.
