[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Example? Telling someone who is clearly overweight (or 'fat') that they are either isn't exactly fat bashing, even if they don't want to hear it. So I'm not sure there is any fat bashing going around. Calling oneself "chubby" when one is obese is disingenous, and I think some posters probably are calling them out. But calling fat people "disgusting" isn't nice either. (PP, looking at you.)[/quote] I think of the fat bashing on DCUM (and elsewhere) as: 1) Shaming overweight people and defending it (as if overweight women don't already know they are heavy and wish they were not.) 2) Assuming weight is the only relevant factor in a situation (health or otherwise) 3) Calling people "fat" as an insult. (i.e. you must be fat to have said that...) [/quote]
