Default Why do people usually make fun of person who is overweighed?

Hi everybody….I’m one of those people who really care about person who need help… But I have a great problem and I really need your help…..yesterday someone has come and ask me why people make fun of persons who are overweighed…I’ve told him that most of the people are not aware about how someone suffers everyday due to his weight…..Can you please give me some other reasons apart from awareness??? Hope to hear from you

you know we live in a society where hollywood stars are the idols to follow. Everyone thinks that how they should be, well this restrained view of the media is also affecting the general perception and more that of the newer generations..so it seems fat ppl are literally outcasted...the mentality of ppl need to change and there are also those who are feel pleasure insulting others...i have an interesting quote " once someone spat on buddha, and he thanked him" and remember Jesus said to love your enemies...is it so hard to not to react to provokations

Why people make fun of overweight people?
That’s a tough question and I don’t make fun of obese people.
But I think that some people make fun because they think that they’ll never become fat. They associate fat with not beautiful. It could be that but I don’t know.

Because they are stupid... that's all I can say even if it's rude
I read that a person who is overweighted is a God's servant and is protected from harmful influence by such body...
And there was written that nowdays all overweighted peple can easy loose weight , even by those methods that previously were not working!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, nowadays we are living in a modern generation where people don’t like obese person. Nobody wants to be overweight, everyone wants to have a good look and have a perfect figure. It doesn't matter if other people are laughing at them, instead they get motivated to go on diet and to be slim. Now there are much more facilities for someone to lose weight in no matter of time.

But Suzanna, this offend people somewhere nah. The obese are offended. That was why denver was asking some help. Those people do want to lose weight. But that does not mean that you should offend people for them to go on and lose weight!!! Imagine someone offending you for your beauty!! Any ideas to be beautiful!!! That's what happening with those people.

Instead we should motivate them to take some diets and exercises in more respectful manner!

Hello everyone,
you are right Mikyal. We can't offend people like this. They are aware that they are obese and they are here to do their weight loss, instead we have to encourage so that they dont lose hope regarding the fact that they had to return to their normal weight.

Hi, its not a type of offence but like a motivation for them to be able to take into consideration what is happening to them. Some obese people don't even know that they are at risk of getting various illness with their obesity.

Me too, i have put on some weight but am looking forward to go on diet or to do something about this.
The point of view is to make them realise that they have do weight loss..

Well this is a forum and everyone has his own his own opinions, but i think you should think well before answering. Surely denver has some thoughts to apply in order not to offend-motivate people!!
