why do canadian women find it acceptable to be fat?

[laptopuser]

doesn't matter where you go nowadays - schools, malls, workplaces - they're all full of fat women. you see these monstrosities walking around the grocery store just loading up on the most awful processed foods, with their 2-3 chubby kids behind them just itching to get home to snack on all the chips and frozen pizzas mom bought.

any office job ive ever worked is just totally ridden with fats sitting on their chairs all day going through mounds of paperwork. what a great life. they make the work environment tense. they're always in a bad mood because ****************************

and finally thank you for lowering the amount of attractive women out there. i love seeing that 5 out of 10 women are ineligible for a romantic relationship because they look like a hippo.

green = overweight
red = obese

Maybe because historically women have been a little on the heavy side? Especially in victorian days? I thought it was a symbol of wealth, tbh.

It is technically unheathy to be over a certain weight though. Obesity is linked to health problems. Maybe it is more to do with eating habits rather obesity? But probably not.

You're focusing on women, so that makes this thread sexist.

People in general have found it OK to be fat.. lol. You see it on Tyra, Maury all these shows where the media tells us to be ok in our own skin and weight. You should be fine in your own skin, but being overweight is unhealthy and dangerous, it's not even about looking good or bad. Then the average looking girl who lost 100 pounds says she lost weight because she hated how she looked and she is criticized. lmao..

What do you want to do about it?

I dont have a problem with fat people, when they know they have a problem. Everyone makes mistakes. Its the fat ones who are proud of it that get on my nerves.

You make it sound like only Canadian women are fat/obese. What about the Canadian men out there? Are they all sticks/fit in your books?:facepalm:
