Is fat shaming good or bad?

I personally think it is good to call out people for being overweight but that you should do it one on one and not in front of a whole bunch of other people. Also telling kids that their fat in front of others is especially cruel. Ive seen this on multiple occasions with a member of my family by her mother and father at holiday times when we all get together.
Eta: The kid is an 11 year old girl and I feel really bad for her because i can tell it takes a toll.

Bad. Most people that are overweight have tried to lose weight with diets and workouts and have had no luck. The truth is that if you have large genetics you're probably stuck with the weight

I don’t know but telling people (especially kids) that it’s ok to be morbidly obese is not ok.

It took decades to shame smokers, I guess it may take that long to shame fatties. Maybe longer, since most are Baptists, and Baptists are never wrong.

It's good. Fat chicks are fricking gross.

Anyone can lose the weight. Lazy fricks blame the lack of weight loss on genetics when it's really laziness

That's not true at all. If obesity isn't related to genetics why do you see entire families that are large?

Depends. If they actually have a thyroid condition it'd be like making fun of a guy in a wheelchair. Best to just worry about yourself.

I dont think its pk to be fat but calling people out individually in front of ithers isnt the most healthy way to do it imo.

I think it’s good but showing concern about someone’s health is better than “shaming them.” That said I have a friend who is morbidly obese who I tried to talk to about the issue and she didn’t speak to me for about a month after that... and nothing changed.

This!
If you want to be a fatass that's fine but don't doom kids to health problems to make you feel better about yourself.

Good. It makes me feel better about myself.

Because nobody in that family has the drive to do anything about it. They just see i being fat as the norm.

If you are exercising and dieting properly you won't be obese.
Hell, if you are overweight and simply reduce your portion sizes (not even necessarily alter the food you're eating) you'll lose weight.
People who say they are "big boned" or "genetically fat" are full of shite.

Obesity is like any other self destructive behavior. The person has to be self motivated. Nobody else is going to make them change.

The body positive thing is dumb and harmful, especially for kids. But fat shaming is ridiculous. Do you really think someone who is overweight is totally oblivious to the fact until/unless somebody treats them like shite for it? It's just an excuse to treat someone as an inferior, which is something a lot of people need for some reason.
