Why do you feel comfortable embarrassing fat people in public for just existing?

It is called sizeism and is every bit as atrocious and harmful as racism.

Oh please.

The reason people act like this around here is because no one puts them in their place. You missed a great opportunity OP but next time you will prepared.

Please describe what this person looked like OP.

People act like this because they have no manners or civility and you see it everywhere. OP won’t be putting them in their place she would be inviting a confrontation and altercation at Marshalls. Do that at your own risk. Who knows how far an aggressive person will take it. But you’re welcome to find out.

The salesperson approached me and said in the nastiest voice imaginable "These are workout clothes." After I said "Yes, I know," she said "Do you work out?" -- again, with horrible tone. I left. I wish I could go back in time and lay into her. Y'all should have seen the way she looked at me. Mean as could be. Instead of responding I felt full of shame over my weight and left.

Horrible. I'm so sorry that happened to you.

This type of attitude is why I don't shop at Lululemon.

I received the nastiest customer service of my life in that store in Tysons. I had 2 different associates inform me that they didn't think they had anything suitable for my needs.

Yeah, no sh!t... but I was there to spend a lot of money on my nieces at Christmas. Like, of all times of the year, why be b!chy and judgmental towards people THEN? It's the GD season of GIVING!

I ended up gathering up everything that I was going to buy them, stood in line, let the gal ring me up, and then said j/k that's what I would have spent if Tatiana wasn't such an epic c-u-next-tuesday. 1

I’m a size 8 and won’t buy Lululemon because I can’t stand snotty salespeople.

I'm sorry, what?

Until you can change your race with a few months of laying off the Ben and Jerry's "sizeism" will never be as atrocious or harmful as racism.

You must have been pissed to stand in a holiday checkout line at Tysons just for the fake out.

What gives? I know I wear a size 14. And if I was buying size 2 skirts for myself…what’s it to you?

Ugh sometimes I just hate people.

Vent over.

Appropriate response: "Then why, prey tell, are you here rather than in the plus size area?"

I have been wearing a brand of clothing for years. They used to carry it at Nordstrom but now have a free standing store in Tyson's II. I went there in April to buy things for the summer. The sales person looked me up and down and said "look around" and dismissed me. I identified about $4,000 worth of clothing and asked her if she had one dress in a size 12. She shrugged and said "no." I bought some of the brand at Saks in New York in January and called the sales person there who had been wonderfully helpful. In front of the Tyson's sales person, I ordered every item through Saks. The sales person tried to stop me, but couldn't without making a scene. Economic power is good.

I don't know about that store, but the stores at Tysons II are really strange. They almost attack you at Saks or Ferragamo to buy anything but sales clerks at stores like Ralph Lauren or Lafayette 148 don't want to be bothered.
