[quote=Anonymous]There's also something about the fact that the fat shamers think it's OK to publicly criticize people's bodies when we would never allow people to speak this way about other types of personal habits that people have.  WOuld it be OK for me to walk into a family member's house and say, 'I'm really worried about your spending.  I think you need to get your spending under control.  Look at all this shit that you have purchased that can't possibly afford.  Why don't you go on a spending diet for your family's sake?"

Would it be OK for me to walk into a family member's house and say, "I'm really worried about your overconsumption of junk TV and media.  I think you need to get your brain under control.  When's the last time you read a book?  or a newspaper? WHy don't you go on a media diet?"

Would it be OK for me to walk into your home and say:
-Your house is filthy and I think you're not spending your time properly because you're not cleaning?

Why is it that it's OK to point fingers about fat but not about anything else?[/quote]
