People commenting on pictures on social media sure are a good representation of what's socially acceptable... :unsure:

Each and every person in those comments is an idiot. I do not understand how their opinions and actions are relevant to this thread.


Didn't you hear of the newest school of sociology? The one where we just collect anecdotes from facebook and extrapolate on the rest. Data efficient and works like a charm!

for an example of how promoting healthy body images has now become a bannable offense let's take a look at project harpoon

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3203538/Horrifying-Facebook-page-edits-images-plus-size-models-overweight-strangers-look-thinner-creators-claiming-help-misguided-women-potential.html

this was a motivational group that tried to show morbidly obese men and women what they could look like

there was no backlash when they showed fat men what they could look like as fit healthy men

if i was the guy on the left and i saw this as a normal person i'd say hey that's awesome that i could look like that with a little bit effort, now lets do whatever it takes to get there


but when they created images showing fat women what they could look like as fit healthy women there was a massive backlash

fat women and white knights everywhere got mad calling the group a bunch of hateful dbags
they formed support groups to feel better about themselves and started shouting out to the public that the landwhale on the left is the new normal
they even got the group shutdown on facebook calling it a form of "bullying" because it's easier to target groups that try to show them what they could be like if they pursued healthier lifestyles as opposed to giving up a diet that consists of donuts twinkies and coco puffs

Yes fat people are wasting resources and space. If it's a biological trait then they need to be prevented from reproducing
If it's not then they're just lazy and have no self control and discipline when it comes to food and exercise

Those pictures aren't comparable. They are showing a man losing 15 lbs vs a woman losing over 100. Why is your propaganda always so disingenuous Duffman?

You're posting on an Internet forum. By most definitions, every single minute and every single dollar that has ever gone towards this forum's development, maintenance and usage was a waste of resources, time and space. You've basically just pleaded to have your own right to reproduce taken away.

That guy would need to lose a lot more than 15 pounds to see that transformation. The women would also be looking at 200+

i did not realize there are fat people across the world crying in fitting rooms at this very moment because they couldn't find something that fits them :o

you'd think the stores they shop at not having xxxl size clothing should let them know they need to sort their life out but they insist to the very end that it's the stores that need to change, not them

Where do you keep finding all these screenshots, and why do you keep posting them as if they contribute to the thread?
