It's like they have put the concept of weight loss and healthy lifestyles at odds with body positivity. This shouldn't be. Body positive concepts should coincide with a healthy lifestyle. It reminds me of in college, when I was balls deep in feminist philosophy and authors like Rae Langton. I believed that in order for a woman to have a relationship she had to reconcile the fact that there was no way one could be a sexual being without some level of sexual objectification. It spiraled downward like this and I isolated myself from any type of sexual relationship in some sort of strict avoidance of objectification. I was making the mistake of putting sexual relationships at odds with a loving emotional/mental relationship. By my senior year I had meditated on it for so long and recognized that to reconcile sexual objectification, sexual relationships and mental/emotional relationships HAD to coincide. It made one hell of a drawn out senior thesis presentation about the sexual lives of our generation.

Anyway, point is, body positivism cannot exist in a silo without a healthy lifestyle.

Fatphobia is just a mayo drinkers way of trying to claim victimhood by making people think they have their own version of homophobia. The problem they refuse to see is that people are disgusted by fat, not afraid. I am so sick of them trying to play that card. It's annoying, transparent, and pathetic. So basically, just like every other dumb thing they do.

Or they try to act like being fat somehow isn't just shitty life choices. Hence why they think they need a word like "fatphobia" to describe our dislike of them, instead of what we all feel, which is "disgusted".

Yes it's the recognition of truth they're trying to avoid, because they know it comes with judgement. But people have eyes, and you can't cover up biology with language. Reality doesn't bend to our words and can't be hidden by them. It has no concern for our thoughts. It simply is.

And that hypersensitive bullshit contributes to FPH. If you're going to be seen as a fatphobic oppressor, or some similar nonsense, for talking about your own damn weight loss on your own damn tumblr, even if you kowtow and walk on eggshells like that person did, you might as well say "fuck it" and go full shitlord. As a bonus, if you make no pretense of partial agreement, you can't be accused of "concern trolling".

If only I gave a single flying fuck about fatphobia and what subhuman whales feel.

"Everything that isn't about me or doesn't make me feel good about my shitty life and deplorable choices is bad and no one is allowed to talk about it. me me me."

That's like that I'm racist for having a white husband. That's the most stupid thing I've read for a while.

I'm not sure if you're being ironic or not, but I know people that have been labeled as racist for having white spouses.

Seriously? Why? I was being ironic, by the way.
