You're treated the way you are due to a direct consequence of your actions. YOU decide to eat too much. YOU decide not to be active enough. Nobody is forcing you to be fat. If you don't like having to pay more for a plane ticket because you take up extra room, lose weight. If you don't like the plus size clothing options, lose weight. Of course doctors will tell you to lose weight in order to be healthy. It's not fat shaming, it's educated medical advice. Thin privilege is just fat consequence.

"Don’t like being treated like shit? THEN CONFORM CONFORM CONFORM, YOU EVIL DEVIANT! And watch me as I laugh at your pain, and enjoy my unearned social status. Hahahaha I’m only saying this for your own good fatty!" #shitthinpeoplesay

The Demonization of Fat People: A Trollish Fiction

Some troll writes:

2000 calories a day is not starving yourself. It's actually plenty. Further, I understand the very distinct difference between actual HUNGER, and the somewhat odd feeling of your body actually burning excess fat for calories. It sure is nice to be smart enough to no delude myself into thinking doctors are evil for suggesting being as wide as you are tall is not healthy. No thanks, Girl Behind Counter at Burger King, no super size for me, regular is more than enough food.

Mod response:

What glorious rationalizations we construct when trying to justify our hatred. You've got this very complex fictionalization of not just what we say on this blog (I don't think we've ever said 2000 cals/day is starvation), but also the followers and moderators (that we don't know what it's like to be hungry, or that we are certainly not as smart as someone like yourself who quite obviously lacks both critical reading skills and basic decency). Then you demonize some generalized cashier for being some kind of Temptress of Fat. 

I'd say bravo, if this really was fiction...but I have the sneaking suspicion that you actually believe it. 

Sad.

The bus is full, but I'm ok with standing for 20 minutes.

Mod translation: "I hate it when fat people sit on the bus, especially FULL buses. I mean, how dare they sit? And even though I know nothing about them, whether they have a disability or they're tired or they just want to sit instead of stand like the kinds of choices thin people can make with impunity. I'm just going to assume they're a rude and terrible person because, well, LOOK at them. They're FAT! Of course, I'm not a rude and terrible person for giving the stinkeye to fat people who sit on the bus. I'm a hero of justice!" #shitthinpeoplesay

Of course there's fat people on TV. I mean, there's the Biggest Loser, and Too Fat for 15, and Mike and Molly...

Stuff I used to say ....

I used to say that it didn't matter I was carrying an extra 30kg. That I was too busy / tired to take care of myself properly.

Now? I say this:

Wow, my knees and hips don't ache anymore!

Shit, I can't remember the last time I was sick!

I never get pimples / cold sores anymore!

I get so much done in a day now I can sleep less yet have more energy!

I've let go of the dark moods that used to envelope me.

Fuck me nourishing, wholesome food in reasonable portions are DAMN satisfying!

If hunger wasn't the question, food isn't the answer.

Hell yes I feel GREAT after I exercise - the runner's high is REAL!

And so on and so forth.

I honestly think unless you've been both fat AND thin you have no p;ace bitching about who has it easier / better and why.

------

Mod response: I've been both fat and thin, both unfit fat and fit fat, and unfit thin and fit thin, and you're full of shit. I mean, do you really think cold sores have to do with you being fat? 

I can buy that greater fitness can make certain people feel better. But that include fat people who have greater fitness and don't lose weight. And that runner's high? -- isn't exclusive to thin runners. It's not like adipose tissue counteracts the endorphins or something. 

And of course thin people don't get depressed. Oh wait, they do? Well then, they should lose weight, right! Oh no, of course not, that's only the prescription for fat and depressed people. Because you can't possibly be depressed if you're fat for reasons other than your fat. 

And what does "If hunger wasn't the question, food isn't the answer" even mean? Not all thin or fat or inbetween people eat just to satiate hunger. Sometimes they do it for social reasons, or they're bored, or they like having popcorn with movies, etc. And there's nothing wrong with that. But thin people aren't harangued for eating when "hunger isn't the question," only fat people are. And the question that answers is, "Is our society fat-bigoted?" (the answer is an emphatic yes, by the way)

So yeah, this has #shitthinpeoplesay written all over it. Even if you're post-fat, honeymoon-stage skinny. Been there, done that, was wrong then, and you're wrong now.

Mod note: Oh, what the hell! Here's the whole thing, in it's overwhelming, awkward, bigoted, condescending, shittastic glory. Really, it achieves a kind of perfection, being a shining example of Shit Thin People Say. Warning: very very long. -MG

I can tell you must be going through a rough patch in life, I mean, why else would you make a blog such as this one? You project yourself in such a way that you come off resistant and stubborn to others' thoughts and perceptions outside of your own. Which is not something that should sit well with you.

You made this blog whether you are going to admit it or not, to seek revenge on those who hurt you aka thin people. No people in specific, but thin people.

I have seen numerous BBW blogs who promote body acceptance, yet I never see thin women on their blogs - and I wonder why. Most of you are very exclusionary and really only care to promote and encourage those with your same body. And I know from this you may say ''Oh, poor thin privileged little girl, is my blog exclusionary to you, that sucks while society bows before your feet and designers cater to you - not me, welcome to my world, bitch.'' Yes, you can easily manipulate anything anyone says. And I see that too often on these sorts of blogs. You attack and take every chance you can get to warp and distort the meaning behind simple messages that are not attacking you the slightest, yet you take it as if they are...  I once saw a message someone received that was along the lines of ''I am recovering from anorexia nervosa and these types of blogs help me to feel better about myself bc I notice I am not as big as I once perceived myself to be and that I surround myself w unrealistic women on my dash who I often compare myself to.'' I saw absolutely nothing wrong with this, if I was the blog owner I'd feel victorious for even slightly making someone feel better about themselves. But no, the blog owner who was a fatspo blog took massive offense to this message and played victim big time and totally distorted the message received, and ended up victimizing the anon calling them disgusting and telling them to get the fuck off their blog because it was not meant to be for their use.

It seems like you guys take comfort in assuming that people are against you, as you have felt that way your whole life, which I understand. You have your guard up and anyone willing to try and question your motives or your mindset your claws come out and a whirlpool of years of ache and pain is released onto one person you assume to be a threat. When really, people aren't out to get you - the world is not out to get you. It is you who is causing the drama and pain. You choose how to view yourself, and how you view others, no one made you this way, you are in control of your actions and your life, you can not blame others for your mishaps.

Playing victim really gets you know where, all it does is set you back, it sets you back from achieving goals, and being genuinely happy. I reckon you stop right now, and notice the damage you are causing yourself. You may think that this blog is in some way cathartic or that you are proving yourself, but it is not and you are not. You may also think you are ridding yourself of negativity by exuding it to others through this blog, but little do you know you are just putting it all back into yourself if not more. You do not fix yourself by putting others down, that is not how life works, you fix from within. I am sure this blog has already started it's process of angering you from the moment you login, you login and go straight to your inbox expecting to see hate and then you get heated and respond condescendingly and go on with your day with this cloud of anger and hate fogging your mind with every activity you participate in. Consuming, isn't it.  And this blog you created really just shows how poorly your view yourself.

Do not be in denial of your own hypocrisy, you can not accept one body type and then indirectly shame another, which is what you are doing here. A few times already you have mentioned ''thin people'' concerning over your weight for health reasons when really that is them shaming you because they are fat-phobic. Listen, yes, there are people who are shaming you and taking cheap jabs at something so obvious - you being over weight, but this mindset that you have to dismiss all talk of health because you feel it is someone attacking you and not being genuinely concerned is wrong... Just like someone being anorexic is not beautiful and to not be accepted, neither is being grossly overweight, being at both extremes are both deadly and damaging to your health. Does that make the person ugly, no, it makes their disorder ugly - over eating or under eating it is damaging and will only hurt the individual. I am tired of people dismissing the effects being obese will have on them. It is serious, I mean if you are aware of the effect being obese will have on your life and your health and you accept that you are unwilling to change that, great. But do not endorse ignorance. And let me say now because people always respond with ''Go educate yourself; you are not a doctor; stfu you don't have my blood work; you can be healthy and big.'' Don't be one-sided and close-minded, also educate yourself on the effects of being overweight and obese, as I have done already. No, I am not your doctor, but that does not mean I am not giving factual insight. Yes, you can be healthy and 'big', and I am using the term 'big' very vaguely as you can not tell someone's health by their weight as you do not know the food they fuel themselves with and their activity level, unless they are obese and struggling physically to do simple tasks and activities.

I am not hating or shaming you, as you can tell throughout this message I have given you a ton of advice and personal opinions that I clearly took time to write out, so do not knit-pick at one part of this message and blow it out of proportion and ignore what I am trying to get across.

I will end this by reflecting on what I have already said, you choose your life, you choose how you view yourself and others. Don't play victim, you get nowhere in life by doing that. Do not surround yourself with things that you will only gain negative things from -this bog-. Don't be a hypocrite, you can't accept one body type and then shame the other. No one will care to listen to your point of view if you are hostile and rude. People treat you with the respect you treat them and others with, and if they are just disrespectful, cool, no changing them if they are resistant to it. Be open-minded and if you want something to change, it is your duty to change it by getting your message across in a personable, calm and educated fashion that allows viewers and readers to feel welcome and accepting of your standpoint.

You fat acceptance activists are just wasting time hating thin girls. Why not spend that time losing weight instead? Do something useful with your time other than eating, you wastes of space. You'd be a lot happier when your clothes look great on you and you walk like a model instead of waddling about! Stop being so obvious about your jealousy lol!!!

I don't even have to mock this one, it's mocking itself.
