You squared off against an obese woman in WalMart and you’re bragging about that? Wow. That’s super duper impressive.

They should get preferential parking, in the spaces furthest from the store, waaaay out back.

I agree. If they want to buy nicer clothes and somebody makes them who cares? They have every right to feel comfortable and pretty in the clothes they wear. [/quote]

I disagree - sexy is in the mind - I’ve seen some heavy persons that felt sexy.
I’ve also met some wimmenz/men who like the heavy body type, so …
whatever floats your boat, right~[/quote]
I hate agreeing with Vikings but he’s totally right.
Sexy means different things to different people. Here’s a bit of a mind blower for most of you, some women don’t like super muscular men.
I say more power to her if she’s happy in her skin. We’ve got a really, really limited time on this earth and happiness can be hard to find.

X4 or whatever. Who cares? Lots of stuff is unhealthy and I think if we browsed around this forum for a few minutes we could find some examples of medically poor choices that lead to results bodybuilders like.
I would also point out that obesity might be secondary to whatever issue put people in the cart. Damage that prevents an active lifestyle, for instance breathing issues. Congenital heart issues. Nerve damage. Etc.

Zero chance that you’re right. You know every obese person deliberately got to that point by being lazy and refusing to move. They are willful bastards.
This is America and we’re still somewhat free, god speed if someone wants to be a disgusting fat-ass. Just stop putting that shit in my face and perpetuating the notion that it’s just fine to be morbidly obese because it is not.

Her life, her choice would work for a pool or beach she owned. However, I’m pretty sure we’re talking about what people find acceptable for public places. “It’s your life” doesn’t work for that unless you want to abolish all laws and expectations of public decency. In many places ghetto boys can no longer wear their saggy knickers, and their boxers offend me much less than whatever might be hanging out of a fatkini. [/quote]
Dude, if you get “offended” at a female in fatkini, you need to rinse the sand out of your vagina and grow some balls.

You squared up in front of a woman in a handicap cart, and said that her cart doesn’t have the horsepower to run you over?
I don’t normally respond like this but damn, dude you really give me the vibe that you are one of those people that could really use a punch in the face.

or a nut-check from a motorized grocery cart ha[/quote]
ha, maybe. Just him getting punched in the face sounds much more rewarding to me.
We all know we can’t go around punching people in the face. I’m just saying he gives me the vibe that he could really use a punch in the face.

Ehh, it doesn’t bother me that much if a obese girl wants to wear a bikini. Her life, her choice.
Something that does bother me is that I see obese people at a grocery store creeping around on those electronic carts because they are too lazy to walk. Yes you are obese and it makes moving around harder than it is for a normal person. Moving less is just making it worse. I hate to think that they are taking up carts that can be used to people with an actual disability or injury.

That’s silly. Electronic carts are not a limited resource and if anything an increasing market will lower their cost for all.

At grocery stores they are. They typically only have 3-4 at a store. Just like how there is only about 4 handicap parking spaces in front of the stores. People are always abusing the carts or the system taking away from people who actually need them.
