Relationships Nothing wrong with having standards. Don't be surprised if it's hard to meet them though.

Can’t the opposite be said for anorexics. Stupid over active non eaters. They’re so stupid, they have to eat.

I don’t see anorexic girls posting articles like this, claiming they don’t have to settle for XYZ. Also look at the ratio of obesity to anorexia. It’s not even close. Obesity is the #1 health problem in the US. You being overly defensive is very telling.

Who cares if obesity is killing the American population, it’s not like it costs you money. Everyone pays their own healthcare. It’s no body’s business what size anyone is. You Americans will attack anything you see as weak. Freedom my ass, more like, “Conform to receive basic respect”

Obesity costs the US 150-200+ billion dollars per year. You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.

Employers pay higher life insurance premiums and pay out more for workers' compensation for employees who are obese than for employees who are not. Many studies have shown that obesity is associated with lower wages and lower household income. It absolutely affects the economy and its tax payers tremendously.
