Carrying a little extra weight and carrying it modestly and well are one thing. I have a friend who is close to 250 lbs., but she carries herself proudly and wears things that flatter her. She's not ugly in any sense of the word.
But when I see a 300-pound woman in the store with a medium size tank top on, that is ugly. When I see a 400-pound obesity case wearing a 38 waist in shorts, that's ugly. I'm a size 7 and I don't expose my stomach in public; I don't want to see yours unless I'm at the beach or somewhere where that's okay. In the supermarket or at the park is not okay.
So, in summary, fat is not ugly if it's not exposed in an unflattering manner. It's the same as having your breasts hang out of a tank top or watching some little size 00 girl come in with a shirt that comes to the bottom of her cleavage. They're just some of those things that need to be treated with modesty.

I believe thin(slender) is better and beautiful because it's healthy and fat is totally unhealthy.
In nature, fat do not come by chance. Thin comes.
Have you ever seen a wild animal who's running around that's Fat? No.
So thin is natural and fat is unnatural. fat is a product of ppl sitting around doing nothing because they afford to and the same goes for some pets these days.
Back in the days, I don't think there were any fat cats ever or dogs for that matter.
a thin person maybe able to carry or lift themselves (being able to carry their own weight) than a fat one.So fat is the one who probably lacks ability to carry their own weight. Which i think is an indicator of being healthy.
They are more light weight so they can move easily, now How can be fat good which isn't able to move fast? at least, from an outsider's opinion fat can't move. So it's ugly.
People are always attracted to healthy.
On the other hand cronically thin, just bones person isn't any attractive either.
So healthy is beautiful. Fat ain't healthy in any way.
Look at all the diseases fats can have opposed to a thin person. ( clinical studies)
It has nothing to do with clothes, fashion, or skinny super models like other ppl said earlier. Popular culture isn't all the reason when ppl choose thin over fat.
So if you are fat, you better change that for yourself because you are heading toward your demise. sorry to say.
But it's certainly something ppl can change, its not permanent disability or disease.
But SHOULD be changed.

This is because of advertising. In magazines, you could see a lot of pages filled with very thin models wearing the latest creations of designers and these ads tell you that they are beautiful. Then you see all these actors trying the new "diet trend" or exercise just to look "perfect." What is perfect anyway? It's mass brainwashing! Beauty all depends on the person. Some see thin as beautiful and some see fat as beautiful. I say, as long as you're healthy, you're beautiful.

Fat isn`t ugly.
Some look good being a bit over-weight and some don`t. It has to do with your personality, face and how you dress! We all fancy different body types as well.
It is the media and showbiz that have created the image of "near-anorexia" being beautiful (the stars are like that, I am not talking about people being skinny naturally). It is just as when they say that the darker your skin is, the uglier you are. Or that Asian men can`t be handsome.
Thank God we are all different! As long as we are not extreme, in any sense of the word, we are all beautiful.

No fact exist that says thin is beautiful or fat is hideous. It's just people's opinions these days. Outside is never more beautiful than the inside. In some cases the judgment of ones body can also come from jealousy!!

I dont' think fat is ugly, it's only society... since magazines and TV always use the skinniest models, people think that being thin means being pretty, which is not true! Weight has nothing to do with beauty. And that's just talking about outer beauty and not including inner beauty...

Im skinny but I think some fat and some skinny people look pretty its just when fat people have fat bulging out of their shorts. If your fat your not ugly only when your face is ugly. I think people should forget about our weight and look at our faces and personality.

Well being too thin isnt very nice to look at and being hugely overweight like 30 stone is disgusting.
But there are many variations of what people would call fat and thin.
people who are overweight are not ugly because some people I know are overweight but they are really pretty and I also know people who are slim or thin but they dont look ugly watsoever...Anorexia will make you look ugly but as long as you arent 30 odd stone or 4 stone at the age of 20 your fine!! lol
Take people for who they are not what they are.

fat isent ugly. some people thnk or say that because they want to feel good about themselves so they make fun of other people. everyone is beautiful in their own way. but some people might think that because they loook at the crease lines and stuff.....but people shouldent judge other people on the outside. guys or other girls might think that thin is beautiful because tehy dont have extra weight or somethin
