Being skinny is good. Being fat is bad. Making fun of someone for something good is innocuous teasing, making fun of someone for something bad is considered very rude. I'm not actually judging someone for a good quality, but I would be for a bad one. For example, You are too pretty. All the boys are scared to ask you out, that's why you are single vs You are too ugly. All the boys are scared to ask you out, that's why you are single Both are technically criticisms of their appearance, but its obvious that the first one shouldn't be taken as an insult. You have to remember that fat acceptance is not genuine. No 22 year old lonely woman stares at 350 pounds of fat in the morning and genuinely thinks shes better looking than other women. She thinks shes ugly and she feels bad, as a defense mechanism she feigns confidence and tells the world shes beautiful. There is an underlying understanding that we don't actually believe she feels that way. most people will humor her, we don't. We all know fat is bad and skinny is good. As such one is an insult and the other isn't.

That was highly educational, thank you.
