In your opinion, what do you think about fat acceptance?

In my opinion, yes, we all have to respect everyone whether they are different and accept them for who they are. But, I don't like the idea of fat acceptance. People with overweight body is unhealthy, and that is a fact! They can live with many sicknesses due to their unhealthy body. And support them to stay in their body is a bad idea! Instead of judging them for their size, why don't we support them to become healthy? I mean become healthy is not about having a nice, fit body. It's about keeping balance in health and have a healthy lifestyle.

What do you think?

adults can be fat all they want if thats what they choose to live. you dont have to accept it but you shouldnt have to put your input into someone elses life. they get fat and die thats on them. too much info out there to not know whats good and bad for you. for people to think saying hey being fat isnt good for you fatty will help them.

@Datdudeblack Every dead person is a lost potential on development of humanity, so it affects you too

@Shaman save that hippy talk. we all die some too soon. what one could have been another will be born to do what that person maybe was meant to achieve.

@Datdudeblack You cannot exactly know that since you will never be able to know what the dead person could've contributed.

@Shaman well i did say adults so we should know what they have to potentially offer. we as humans go beyond what we are capable of so worrying about people who dont want to put the effort in to stay alive is a waste of time.

@Datdudeblack Nobody can know the future yet. Your claim is insupportable.

That may be perceived as so, unless you inspire them to put that effort.

@Shaman from birth till adulthood you are putting on display from your actions your potential. you can be more than what you show but in eye sight by your actions you are showing the world what you can be. you can inspire others but telling others how they should live seems like a waste to me. of course there are people who need to be shown but at the same time being fat is a problem people put on themselves unless they have a medical condition. if you want to save people who dont want to save themselves go ahead im not saying dont. im saying i dont care. live how you want. get fat dont get fat. you live or you die from it. thats on that individual.

@Datdudeblack I get it you don't care. I wouldn't have replied to you if I agreed with you. I think the more we care, the more we can benefit.

Actions do give an idea on the potential, though only to a degree...

@Shaman only way to understand is discussion. i agree with we should all care more but sometimes its hard to care for someone that dont want to care for them self.
