      Size? Obesity isn’t a size, it’s an illness that kills you. Do you walk up to cancer patients and go “never change, you’re beautiful the way you are, don’t let the doctors take away your naturally pale skin”?

        I don’t say anything about their health to cancer patients, I assume they can handle their own shit and will ask me if they want advice. Sad you can’t give fat people the same respect.

          To be fair, he isn’t fat, he’s morbidly obese (that means deadly overweight). It’s like a meth head, not his fault, but don’t say it’s nothing to bother about.

            It’s not fair, it’s irrelevant. Dude’s health has absolutely nothing to do with this post. How hard is it to mind your own fucking business?

        Imagine white knighting a stranger who makes comments about another stranger’s health, based on their appearance. Chances are, the image isn’t even OOP and he’ll never see it. So even if they had tried to rephrase whatever the fuck they said “in a nice way” it was never helpful XDD
