I keep getting the hump (hahaha) from fatt people. I met one in the queue at a store today and this fat woman - i mean real fat woman - with a big swinging a** wearing these ridiculous tight leggings, just went crazy. I said, what the hell is wrong with you lady? She went mental then...balah blah balah OMG, the security man had to come get her. My little boy started crying and said "Daddy, dont let the fat lady get me". I said, dont worry son..
My question is, are people who allow themselves to get fat, Mentally ill??????????

Wow, that's a nasty generalization, isn't it? Your question makes you sound mentally ill from my perspective. Sounds like you have an irrational hatred of people who are overweight.

you are an A** --- did you think that maybe the mental illness came first and that the side effect of the drugs taken cause at least some people to gain weight -- it is not like you can stop taking the medication, when the condition you are taking it for is an untreatable brain chemistry problem

I am a happy person - except when people lump me in with groups without even taking the time to research and get educated about what they are talking about

I'm fat and I'm nice, so your theory has some holes in it. I do think it's possible that people that have obvious problems that you can see (fat, alcoholic, depressed, angry etc.) have deeper issues inside of them that are manifesting themselves in an outward way. However, most people have problems -- they are just in varying degrees. I do not think you should sterotype fat people as a certain way - just like minorities or gay's don't want to be stereotyped. I'm sure if you took the time to notice, you would find some nice people who are normal but just happen to be fat. I have thyroid cancer and therefore my metabolism is slow. It's a medical issue and doesn't mean I'm a head-case or lazy. Maybe that lady at the store had a really bad day or her husband just left her. Who knows. You don't really know unless you've walked in someone's shoes. I want to caution you against letting your son make fun of fat people or anybody. It teaches them to be disrespectful. And you know what happens to disrespectful people........someone else will be writing about HIM in 10 years on this site. LOL. Good luck.

It seems like it. I worked retail for some time while paying for college. One day me and two coworkers decided to make a list of all the customers we specifically knew to be horrible, awful, and crazy people. We had a list of about 20 people and I think 17 of them were fat. Mostly women too. I think they're bitter because they screwed themselves over so they have to take it out on the world. Sorry, it's not my fault you're a cow, so don't scream at me because you can't get your way.

... and my little girl asked, "mommy, why do tough guys have such little ..."?

Seriously, I live in a Stepford community and the skinny minnies probably have more issues than those who are overweight.

People who are overweight may have a genetic predisposition to obesity. They may not have been taught healthy eating habits in childhood, or ever. They may overeat because they are sad, stressed, etc. (just like some people smoke too much or drink too much to mask emotional pain.) They may have sedentary jobs, or health problems that prevent them from exercising (a vicious cycle).

I am not overweight, but I have friends and family who are. I have witnessed the prejudice that they have faced because of their appearance. Not everyone is born beautiful by society's standards, but that doesn't mean they aren't important.

There are beautiful a**holes, there are ugly a**holes, smart ones, dumb ones, etc. You can't generalize these things!

Do the world a favor and talk to your son about the incident in a mature way. This woman's freak out probably doesn't have ANYTHING to do with her weight, although she may be tired of real or perceived slights.

I can't believe I've spent this much time on such a question. Good luck, dude, in changing your entire worldview.

at first... "Ma'am" is a call that we could use interior the resturant buisness with the intention to appreciate the shopper, whether all of us be attentive to they are married. that is purely undemanding experience. Your father is an fool. 2nd, you may discuss with him to tell him how lots it hurts him and that he could bypass see a therapist. If this does not paintings... communicate on your mom approximately how badly your father treats her... and propose a divorce. My mom and father have been in no way happy mutually. Now that they broke up... properly... i've got in no way seen the two one in all them happier. My father, often severe and distant is now open and playful. My mom, as quickly as offended and used to drink is now consistently sober and in no way stops smiling. Divorce sounds like spectacular right here. regrettably, some couples get married too quickly with out thinking issues over, and finally end up no longer desiring the marriage. For some... you in easy terms improve aside over the years. It happens. however the excellent element to take place now's for them to locate human beings.

No, she was probably sick of people like you staring at her, and she lost her temper. I am fat, and quite jolly. I also know of a lot of skinny people who are real pieces of work, very mean and crazy. A persons life experiences play a big part in how they act, not their weight. You should be ashamed of yourself for singling out a specific group of people, and making a sweeping judgement about all of them. I believe that is called being "prejudice"

Maybe becuz they are unhappy with themselves. No, they arnt mentally ill. Some are, but it has nothing to do with them being fat.

Some cases, there are ppl over weight due to an eating disorder, which is a mental thing, but not all.

fat people are mad cause when they are little babies everyone thinks they are cute and lovable like little fat teddy bears. The problem is that the cuteness ends when they hit on their teens and so they get mad at the world because people start calling them fat pigs.
