The idea that we have removed the social stigma for being obese is laughable. Obese people are discriminated against in healthcare, employment, and social settings. Furthermore, numerous studies have show that fat shaming does not lead to weight loss. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6565398/ Shockingly, it turns out if you tell someone with 100 lbs to lose that they are a disgusting lazy piece of shit doomed to an early grave, they tend to withdraw from health care and other social settings, seek comfort in unhealthy habits, and suffer from anxiety and depression. They may give up on their health entirely. After all, if you've struggled your entire life to lose weight and made little progress, then what's the point? |
