Obese people demanding respect for fatness, but doesn't that promote a unhealthy lifestyle in most cases? Sort of a contradiction if you ask me.
Nothing against obese people but it seems those who can't lose the weight want to deflect their self-loathing by making everyone else feel bad for pointing out the obvious.
In other news, a School bans 'expensive' jackets due to 'poverty shaming' of students. Here's the link (https://www.thecollegefix.com/school-bans-expensive-jackets-due-to-poverty-shaming-of-students/).
This shaming stuff is just beyond silly.
I pretty much agree.
Although Dog Shaming photographs can be pretty hilarious . . .

If you want to throw s--t at fat people go ahead. Don't whine when one decides to slam you into a wall...
I think kink shaming is acceptable. >.>
Ever think how the compulsion to shame probably lies deep within human instinct in an almost Darwinian way, some natural selection-rooted impulse that wants to cull the deviants and weak from the herd amid a built-in desire for conformity, for species protection and species continuation from within a gene pool typifying the ideal?
I do, I think whether we realize it or not it's there, our disdain for the outsider, self-created or otherwise, and that's why taunting is particularly strong in the young, who are closer to instinct, and as we get older we learn social niceties and distance ourselves from many instinctive impulses. (Thank goodness.)
Uhm... yeh.
