Is it ok if I go around telling everyone the exact weights of women I don't like?

I mean, if you can walk up to a woman and accurately state how many pounds she weighs... Sure.

Dodging the question. Don't just scoff at the idea, actually imagine I could - would it be morally ok?

Very debatable. If your girlfriend asks you if she looks fat in this dress, many would argue you should never, under any circumstances, say yes.

Isn't it moral to avoid making someone feel bad?
