    Saying “Skinnies are an oppressive class” while there’s literally millions of children dying of starvation worldwide is GOBSMACKING. The lack of self awareness is insane. Most of these people are the size that they are because they have the PRIVILEGE of eating themselves sick.

    My friend Eric died this past Saturday morning. He was over 400 lbs and needed a cane to walk. He was 44 years old. He had gotten an infection from a sore on the back of his leg that he didn’t notice/couldn’t see until it got really bad. That infection turned into sepsis. He was in the hospital for three weeks. He beat the sepsis, and got to go home. The very next morning, he died from a sudden and massive heart attack trying to sit up in bed. In front of his mother. His body may have recovered from the infection, but his heart was already straining to support such a large body for an extended amount of time that it couldn’t handle the excess stress and stopped working. Maybe his heart was what finally ended up giving out-but it was his WEIGHT that caused that to happen. If he had been at a healthier body weight, he’d be with us. He was only 44. The people I see in this movement look to be in their 20s, maybe early 30s. They don’t realize how quickly their obesity is going to catch up to them. And it’s so fucking sad.

      I’m so very sorry for your loss. I do thank you for coming forward with the story of your friend and what is attributed to his early passing. More folks need to come forward with the stories of loved ones who have passed as a result of obesity and the medical conditions there in. It may not click with all of them, but if our loved ones stories can save even one person then they will not have passed without leaving a wider mark on the world.
      I lost my sister at the age of 28/29 a few years back. She was like your friend an obese(I believe close to 400lbs if I recall), she also had medical issues previously to her weight gain while others were the result of her excessive weight or exacerbated by the extra weight. She also sadly didn’t have the best medical coverage(had a laps period between one jobs coverage ended and the new jobs coverage kicked in) that resulted in her needing to ration her meds… however as much as her needing to ration her meds irks me to this day, I know that she likely wouldn’t have needed at least a couple meds if she hadn’t been overweight. I know her heart could have handled better had she not been overweight. I miss my sister everyday, and she was working her butt off to better her life and health…it just came too late, and yes some of the things were 100% out of her control at the time(like where she had to live and who she had to live with just as much as the limited places to have any gainful employment in our town), but she was working to try to undo things she did, and choices she knew weren’t in her best interests. She is my best motivator to live my life as healthy as I can(granted I have my own life long health issues and disabilities just like she did), and as authentically unapologetically as I possibly can given the outside forces of which I can’t control(laws, insurance costs, politics, extreme people wishing people like me were/are unalived, ect).

    If someone is obese and wishes to donate their body, that is very generous. However, no medical student or any student working on dissections would ever want to work on an obese cadaver. We've had to work on multiple body types in the Cadaver Lab and a cadaver that is just overweight is horrible to work with, let alone an obese one. We have cut off all of the fat for us to see the cutaneous muscles. And don't get me started on visceral fat. For students, that may mean hours of extra work, trying to be careful that we don't destroy what we're looking for. We have very limited time to work on cadavers with other classes we have, so having an actual obese cadaver is the equivalent of giving a med student extra several hours of tedious prep work that doesn't account for any grade or credit.

      I've seen videos of that online. It looks very labor-intensive! If I'm not mistaken, autopsies can already be very demanding since you have to break bones and cut through stuff to get to other stuff and adding extra weight takes more out of the people working with the cadaver. Plus, doesn't human body fat sometimes not work properly with embalming fluids or preservatives? I might be confusing that with something else, but I heard something about that being a problem too.

Hell, looking back, even my delusions weren't as grand-scale like imagining the entire world is oppressing me, demonizing the vast majority of the planet and claiming various established facts were wrong.

      It "may" come from the fact that there are universities that only take cadavers with certain requirements for teaching purposes. This doesn't mean that no researchers take obese bodies, just that for teaching purposes it would be easier not to have to deal with excessive adipose tissue. That being said, instructors would likely want their students to have a chance with a variety of body sizes, but not when you first learn.

      Exactly, it’s so very very easy to cater to your own interests without getting all bent out of shape over people producing or enjoying other forms of content that you have personal issues with. Like for example, I really don’t like romance books or movies as I in my personal experience have found many I’ve read or watched to be poorly written and in the extreme examples harmful to those more impressionable individuals who have been restricted/sheltered from being educated on particular subjects… So what do I do, I avoid those movies and books with the insanely rare examples that are well written and not over the top. Like wise there’s plenty of types of music I don’t like too, again I just don’t listen to those… literally anything I don’t particularly care for can be avoided, minimized, blocked, ect with no loss to myself, no harm done to others, and no whining….
      It would seem to me that, at least this is the impression they are giving me, is that misery loves company… they are sad, miserable, ect for whatever their list of reasons are(real or perceived) so they feel the need or simply just want to make others feel the same pain they do. Now this is absolutely NOT an excuse for the behaviors but it’s a potential explanation as to why they are the way they are.
      That said I do believe that many of these folks if not all of them would greatly benefit from therapy, because as some one with mental health conditions myself it’s clear to me there’s loads of unresolved issues. Though on the other side of the coin, they have to first admit they have issues they need help with before anyone can really do anything to help them…all a very tragically sad cycle.

    For a lot of people who who are trying to recover from disordered relationships with their bodies and food, seeing videos of slim, seemingly “perfect” influencers and fitness instructors showing themselves before and after a meal CAN be very helpful. Sometimes, young women need to be reminded that it’s normal for the body to expand after a meal. I can ALSO see how these videos can be triggering to people are really insecure about their weight. But it’s the responsibility of any insecure or disordered person to know their triggers and deal with them in a healthy way. Thin women existing on the internet isn’t “body checking”.

    9:47 this lady actually makes a very clear point unintentionally when she says she wants 'body neutrality'. She doesn't want skinny people praised, or fat people judged. She wants everybody aka fat women treated....like skinny women....so they don't feel less and inferior. She might say 'the same' but it's really about wanting to ALSO be on that beauty pedestal. Which is ultimately what it comes down to with these women. They want 'skinny privilege' but to also be fat/unattractive. So they make up 95%+ false narratives why they are the same, and you're the bad guy for not treating them that way. But if a guy dated a 'average' sized woman and not her, saying it's because she doesn't have the same interests or that he likes her personality as much, she wouldn't likely internally accept that, and part of her would insist - unless he could prove some other way he was attracted to fat women as well - that it was because she's fat. Their ultimate problem is they feel like life - literally or figuratively - bullies them for existing. 'Hot' guys don't want them, exercise is hard, they can't go on theme park rides, their life is smaller, and gets smaller the more weight they gain etc. Because they don't want to view it as a consequence (or changeable) and just get on with it, they call it 'thin privilege', to say they are denied what other people have inherently, and it's not fair. SO they think it's fair game to look down on skinnier women and bully them for existing - at least online where none of them would beat them up. But idk, i think these women are a special breed, just like your average incel. I think they underestimate just how some excess weight could/would put a man off, but also to paraphrase the comedian Rodney Rude: 'I'd rather be with a fat woman that's fun then a fucking bitch'.
    And a lot of these militant fat women definitely seem to be in the bitter bitch category.

I know that my mind is the most important thing, and I think about that when I don't feel good about my body, but I can feel about it how *I want*, not how some rando on the internet wants me to think about it. The way they think they have a right to dictate people's opinions is so narcissistic!

      The woman from the tiktok completely misrepresented what body neutrality is truly about
      It makes me very angry they're trying to take over another movement
      For me body neutrality places the foucus on the function of my body and not as much how it looks
      Example: I don't like how my legs look, I have some cellulite and the proportions look off to me
      But I can't change that, so I learn to accept and love my legs because they allow me to run and be active and go places, so it doesn't really matter how they look
      Body neutrality will mean different things for every person, and it's not for everyone but I personally love it a lot because it's helped my appreciate my body and not worry about how I look so much

The 5lbs isn’t the fault of my work, it’s because I was lazy. I’ll burn this off as I always do, because I make a CHOICE to do what I need to. They just never decide to undo the bad choices.

      As far as I'm aware cortisone can cause massive weight gain, but doctors are meant to advise you about it and you change up your diet while on it to maintain your weight. People that maintain a healthy weight will gain a fair amount while on cortisone if they don't adjust accordingly, and it can be really difficult to drop. Luckily it's not something people are put on forever, and the goal is to eventually have the person come off of it and then adjust again.

      Depends what you mean by "weight." Some meds absolutely will cause your body to retain water which does indeed add 'weight' in acute contexts but I agree that people who claim that 'they cause weight gain' but actually mean 'they cause you to develop excessive adiposity' are full of it.

    They really seem to struggle with the difference between a direct cause (I'm obese because I consume too many calories) and an underlying cause (I consume too many calories due to poor sleep, anxiety and stress eating, less than optimal food selection, and struggling with food prep, all of which stem largely from my autism). And yeah, treating or mitigating the underlying cause is a valuable part of weight management. But only because it *reduces the calories I consume*. There's nothing wrong with a holistic approach to weight management, but just burying your head in the sand and getting fatter and fatter until you die a premature death after a lifetime of sickness is less than optimal.
