[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting discussion. Fat people should not be judged as we would judge people with other addictions, like alcohol, drugs, etc. Right?[/quote] [b] Weight should not be used as a proxy for health. [/b] I think someone who eats crap and never moves and is angry all the time and unable to hold down a financially rewarding job is going to have health problems, yes. But I think that's regardless of where those behaviors send the numbers on the scale. You can't hate people for their own good. [/quote] Once you get into morbid obesity, I think weight is a valid proxy for health. The morbidly obese rarely have a clean bill of health.[/quote]
