being very underweight is equally visibly unhealthy but there's not even nearly as much shaming around that hmmmmmmmmmmm wonder why hmmmm

Because people are dumb. But I don't think that's true, people are often bullied and ridiculed for being anorexic or just generally underweight.

I will have to agree my friends and I are definitely commenting on how one of em is mainly bones with skin

my grandmother before she died was legit skeleton with skin

but you dont know a single thing about a fat person's health
ppl need to unlearn that gut reaction to fat ppl

People who are visibly obese are unhealthy in that regard, there's nothing to unlearn here.

whhy is there a reaction in the first place
why cant fat or obese people just exist without harassment or someone """worried""" about their health

I mean, if it's family and friends I think it's completely valid for them to voice concerns, as long as they're not harassing them or provoking them with it. Otherwise, and if you're not their doctor, shut the fuck up.

ew why do i agree w u this is a crime
I completely get body positivity but once you reach a certain weight you need to start realizing that you need to change

thank god this aint twitter

Actual body positivity = good
The current body positivity movement (aka fat positivity, health at every size etc)= very not good

yeah some people are turning it into an excuse to not lose weight when they desperately need to. coming from an overweight person whos actually trying

if an obese person isnt someone u know personally just dont bother lol, they are indeed most likely not healthy but thats what they chose to become anyways so who gives a shite..

although i do agree that the body positvity movement must have limits and not consider someone who is 600 pounds to be healthy

yes it is weird because there is a lot of visible unhealthy traits that are caused by unhealthy habits but no one lifts a finger

both are not by choice and both are discriminated against

there are always going to be similarities but to make comparisons like that is still harmful. ethnicity is not the same as transsexuality.

How is it different in the regard you're discussing? I'm not being annoying, I'm genuinely curious.

my question asks that some trans women 1) want to be seen as women but also want people to acknowledge that 2) trans women are at a higher risk of hate crime (amongst others)

but women of color are not concerned about (1). they are concerned about (2). so it's a false equivalence because not the same set of statements hold.
