How else do you jump from 30.5% obese to 42.4% of Americans in only 20 years?




I'm in a major American city and my Bumble requirements for swiping right basically consist of being thin and no visible tattoos. That's it, that's all I ask in order to at least 'match' and hopefully chat. I swipe left 90% of the time.

There are exceptions to the tattoo-less rule.

It's fatism. When a skinny person goes to the doctor and complains about pain or some other ailment, They will run various scans to get to the heart of the issue. Notice how cancer patients tend to be leaner?

But when a fat person goes to the doctor and complains about anything...."just some diet and exercise should do the trick"


This person is an educator

frick Bumble... my psycho ex, who punched me in the face while I was sleeping, reported me as abusive. There is 0 recourse to provide police documentation. They protect domestic abusers.

I’ve heard an NPR segment on this.

They are basically saying that just because you’re obese doesn’t necessarily mean you are unhealthy. You can be considered obese but have good cholesterol, blood pressure, etc. These speakers also claimed that “the data is biased”.

These people are twisted

While that's partially true, I'd imagine that once you get into the morbid obesity level the data is so extremely skewed that you can't ignore it

The BMI charts are probably a bit antiquated (or just not that useful) but body fat % and carrying a lot of visceral fat is very dangerous

The worst is when gym rats fat shame people at the gym when they're trying to fix the problem.

It's the daily thread where self-loathing lardass midget Mingo will make an appearance and spew hate at all the other fatties.

According to the CDC there's a 25-30% chance you're obese living in California. Stones and glass houses and what not.

They are manipulative. For example, they will say you can be obese and be healthier than a thinner person. This is technically true. For example, someone who has just become obese and is younger may not be experiencing many health problems yet. Someone could be in a normal weight, but have health problems due to cancer, a genetic heart condition, birth defects, alcohol/drug abuse. But that doesn't change the fact that being obese causes health problems, especially the more time you spend in the state of obesity and the older you get.

But you got some sex out the deal, so in end the end, it was still worth it.

Going to Bumble now.

I suppose we can expect, any minute now, for Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube to cancel all this woman’s postings, and the MSM networks to stop hiring this woman for guest spots, the same way they treated the hydroxichloroquin doctors?
