Also northern Europe. Fatties are pretty common in my 130k population town. Went to Stockholm some time ago. Way fewer fatties.

Lund is shitperson paradise. I don't think I saw any fatties there.

Live in Melbourne, Australia. The smallfats seem fairly common, but the larger variants are fortunately quite rare.

Melbourne here too! Am I the only one who finds it super weird that in the hipster areas (Like Brunswick st etc.) people are either fat or very very (like underweight) thin? There doesn't seem to be a healthy inbetween there

I live in Wales, in the South Wales valleys near where Tom Jones and Max Boyce are from. I live at the top end of a valley, surrounded by mountains, forests and walks. Brecon Beacons national park is not far away. Obesity is a real problem here, I am not great at guessing but the average size of people here is around a UK 18 - shelf asses, triple chins and waddling walks. They are always in trakkies/sport tops (oooo the irony!) or mumus and carrying bags from shops like B+M Bargains, takeaways and discount clothes shops. They always give me dirty looks (all I do is walk past!) so I give them back.

There are way too many fast food places, every type of takeaway is nearby in the valleys no matter where you live, in my little village of 6011 people there are 2 chineses, 2 fish and chip shops, an Indian and a pizza/fries/burgers place. Whenever I walk past them (they are all on one little high street, a few 100m at best) they are always full and to make it worse we also get the bloody leaflets shoved through the door of takeaways between me and our local town Pontypridd.

The amount of obese children I see is horrifying, It makes me so angry when I see them munching crisps and guzzling coke especcially when they are 2-3 at best. There is a high school nearby and sometimes I share the train with pupils going home, I have seen a few pupils (who are at max 17) who are twice the size of me, one of them was at least three times.

Cardiff is not much better either and Wales' only NHS funded weight loss clinic is in a nearby valley - not surprised. I feel like Jack in the land of Giants.

I'm in the Tri-City area in NC. The body sizes are so segregated here. Asians and whites are pretty darn fit, especially the college girls and guys. Local blacks are generally very fat, so are the hispanics.

I live in Tel Aviv, Israel. Honestly, not many obeasts at all. You can definitely spot many on the chubbier side but probably at normal BMI or a little overweight. Outside of the city it gets uglier but not nearly as gross as all your English speaking countries. People here mostly live on a Mediterranean diet so I guess it helps.

I'm spending a minimum of 3 months in Rishikesh this winter...I'm really hoping it's a break from quite so many obeasts. I live in Tucson, Arizona and...damn. It's pathetic. Luckily (at least from photos) there aren't a ton a fatties at the school I'm going to! Not surprising since you get kicked out for missing one class and the schedule goes from about 5:30 am to 9:00 pm 5 days a week and half days on Saturday. No fat has that kind of dedication, haha.

However, the last few sentences you wrote...that's what I'm worried about. I'm super pale, freckled, blue eyes, and red hair. I don't exactly blend in...

Rishikesh is beautiful and there are a lot of great hiking opportunities in Uttarakhand. The creepers are worse anywhere you expect to find tourists but the vast majority of people are respectful and friendly. People recognize me on my runs, now, and wave or offer high-fives. Kids race me.

And they lose.

It's because Portland is full of hipsters. Portland and the surrounding area is also host to a ton of different colleges and universities. Hipsters tend to be SJW, as do a large portion of students, due to the way the SJW have basically taken over many campuses inside and outside of the classroom. Many of the faculty are either sympathetic or active supporters. FA has pretty much hitched onto the SJW wagon by clothing itself in much the same rhetoric, so it makes sense that it would be so rife in a place like Portland.

Portland is basically the San Fransisco of Oregon.

I'd say that SJW tend to be hipsters, not the other way around.
