[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can no longer accept obesity as something normal and desirable. I am seeing people die in my home country of COVID and we need to recognize that obesity is a co-morbidity. Just like extreme thinness of anorexia is a life threatening condition so is obesity. [/quote] And how, pray tell, do you address the anorexics? Do you shame them into dieting, call them names and criticize them for their moral failures?[/quote] No one shames anyone in the entire world unless the people are being inconvenienced in some way (sitting next to an obese person in the airplane and being squished). Do I find pictures of obese or skeletal people in bikinis appealing in ads? No. In a documentary, maybe. Do I have a right to judge them? No. I feel pity for their health condition. If the unhealthy person is my child and is not an adult then I will try and make them eat in a healthy manner and get them professional help. As a parent, that is my responsibility. [/quote] Ugh phone autocorrect. Fixed now.[/quote]
