I watched an interesting clip that said in some countries there are very few fat people because it is not socially acceptable.
They are basically shamed into fitting in a certain slim mold.
We aren’t talking every single person in a country, we are talking overall. If you walked down the street and looked at the majority of people.
It got me really thinking about the US and how much has changed over 40 years.
When I was in school we had one very obese classmate. I have a suspicion she actually had a medical condition.
There was maybe one or two chubby BOYS. That was it, everyone else was skinny, some almost to the point of what we
Would call anorexic today.
Now, take a look at the schools. Look at the schools. We’ve all said it. What is going on with these kids?
Just go to the store, or the mall, or any public place. How many people are average, overweight, and morbidly obese? The numbers are probably
shocking.
I read yesterday that Millennials will probably be the most obese society in the history of earth….
We got told somewhere along the way, don’t fat shame it is wrong. My question, is it wrong not to fat shame? Is it ok to accept
Ill health as a society because we don’t want hurt feelings?
I think it goes so much deeper. I believe it is because WE don’t want to deal with the real issues at hand. We don’t want to accept
That we are being poisoned on a daily basis. That our food is quite possibly the worst on earth even though we are one of the richest countries.
We don’t want to accept that maybe we were wrong about societal shame. Look at places like Korea or Japan, shame is so intertwined in their culture
that people feel so much safer. We don’t want to work on the real issues in our society, racism, bullying, class wars, parents working too much,
kids on electronics too much, no homemade food, medicine up the yahoo, and glorifying unhealthy people everywhere.
My 600lb life. What do they show on these shows? It seems every single morbidly obese person on those shows not only have partners, or multiple
partners, they also have a host of servants answering to their every beck and call.
I think we made a wrong turn, but how do we go back.
