Is it fatphobic to not want to date a person excessively overweight?

And

Is saying "It's okay and normal to be overweight, but (if you are able to) try and take care of your health" okay?

Everyone has their preferences when it comes to dating. So, that's a hot take on that.

It's a privilege to date/have a significant other. It's not something that is necessary. Being consensual is always a plus. If the person doesn't like ya they just don't, and no amount of convincing will change that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don't understand what your asking for the second?

So, imma take it as why I say that phrase usually at the end. Just want people to be healthy mentally and physically, but I know realistically that can't happen all of the time just due to living life. Everyone goes through different scopes of life. That's pretty much it....

Have a blessed day. Stay healthy and continue on.

hi! can i ask something? im not what most people consider fat (I'm afab, 5"8, and about 195 lbs), but I've got some body fat that's always bothered me. I've got stretchmarks on my torso, arms, and legs, my thighs jiggle, and my love handles have always made me pretty insecure. I don't have anything against bigger bodies- honestly, so many larger people are absolutely stunning! but for some reason, i just... don't like my body fat. does that make me fatphobic? I'm sorry, i just wanna know bc i genuinely don't know as much as i should about all this

Hmm could be body dysmorphia.

I went through that myself and am still having a touch and go with it. I used to be smaller and healthier. Now I have gone through yo yo stages. I've gotten stretch marks and skin hang from losing from what I gained.

Would this be considered fatphobia maybe a little since there are people who don't want to have to go through the consequences of being overweight or obese. Since it usually comes with a lot of health issues.

But a quick take is that to start loving yourself to where you feel comfortable with the body you have and go for both mental and physical health. Take your time with it and not go for quick fixes, because in the long run they usually make situations worse off than what it was in the beginning.

This is just from my own experiences along with some research as well.

I hope that whatever journey you take will bring you happiness and comfortability.

I hope one day you actually educate yourself and are able to go into a deeper breath of the problems at hand. Really sick of the blogs or people on the internet where it's clear that they did not do any research and are just pirating familiar viewpoints that they picked up from the same people who are self-masbutory pseudo intellectuals who feel intelligent for repeating bare bones statements and their audience feels intelligent for repeating bare bones statements. I mean the fact your blog is themed around spreading misinformation and harmful stuff about fat people and to fat people was enough and then I got to your posts complaining about people tearing down monuments and that was like the nail on the coffin. LMFAOO. Please grow and change as a person 🙏 fuck off until then! Blogs like this and people like you is why eating disorders are a thing. You people claim to care about mental health but are doing things that make people mentally ill in a thousand ways and mental illness kills people on the daily. Maybe, just maybe, fat people aren't mentally ill because they are fat, they aren't insecure because they are fat, but because people like you exist. And maybe try to go to verifiable sources for your information, not random right Wingers on the internet or articles with clear bad bias towards fat people. You're on the wrong side being fatphobic. Ever heard of a fascist who was pro fat people? No? I wonder why 🤔

Wow alot to unpack here.

All the information I have you can find online in the .gov or either public research medical studies that you can read. Such as

Any people who have done the research and testing can be found there.

This has nothing to do with the "right wingers". Just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean that there wasn't researched done on it Hun. They are also credible.

As for mental health well that's still new in regards to research. Last I checked only 5 dos volumes have been made. You see it takes time to figure out what the heck is going on with the human body let alone the brain. As we keep on living there is an adaptation process as well. Not to mention environmental/social changes that cause different outcomes to how humans react. Heck depression wasn't even a thought until recent. There are just too many factors to what could be causing mental disorders, and it's not just because someone's feelings were hurt. At the end of the day they are just words on here, so why get triggered? Unless it was something that happened in the past, and from there you just do deduction. I literally have had to do that myself. I figured out that I have suppressed certain things that have happened in the past, and reasons as to why it caused panic attacks or binge eating. There isn't a pill to make that disappear unless you actually have a chemical malfunction in the brain, and those cases aren't as common as once thought. 🤷🏻‍♀️ You have to do the work on yourself and use exercises to help with the process, and it's not a short period of doing this but years possibly.

As for the tearing down monuments blog I did. The full article shortened, was me stating that since we are getting rid of certain parts of history we are doomed to repeat. That's a saying for a reason, and hurt feelings isn't going to change what happened in the past.

Fascism has nothing to do with the health problems that people are facing due to unhealthy eating and living. It's hard work to not take shortcuts for health. I'm not saying that I haven't fallen into it, because I have and am still trying to get healthy before it becomes irreversible. Once your health goes down it goes down fast. There have already been a couple pro fat activists that have either changed their livelihood or just straight up die. Being fat is not sustainable, and comes with more cons than pros.

Facts have been served to your wishy washy anon comment/question.

Have many different hobbies thanks for the thought. You know knitting, sewing, baking, watching anime, and being a wife. Along with doing research and getting different ideas for school again. Cuz pandemic kinda fudged alot of plans I did have. 😁

Life as someone who isn't super social. Many things have changed since the pandemic. Loss of a few close family members either to cancer or they just died of old age complications.

It's a blog that I come back to every so often. Usually just to answer questions like this.

🤷🏻‍♀️ give er take who knows what's gonna happen next. Life is weird like that.

Kudos to you and your exciting life on Tumblr where you're literally doing same thing probably. It's ok to be a shut in the closet. Hope you have a wonderful self discovery of who you are 🤗

I’m sorry but no matter how much “fat Positivity” bs that gets shoved down my throat, I’ll never think it’s healthy which Is why I did the work and lost the weight. Normalising health problems ain’t cute

Congratulations on getting to a weight that makes you feel confident and healthy.

FAs say it’s disordered eating or fatphobic if you ignore your cravings. What if I have high cholesterol and my cravings want me to eat an entire 9 is steak as a bedtime snack?

Cravings, that's a broad statement in all honesty. 🤷🏻‍♀️

You could crave liquids, solids, or certain vitamins that could be missing from your daily intake that your body wants.

I'm guessing what the FAs is stating is that you shouldn't say no to any food that you want and when you want it. Which is a double edge sword, because that depends on your health. Because there is disordered eating, such as being a binge eater, which is pretty much consuming regardless if your full or not. Wouldn't say that this is fat phobic, but pretty much adding more problems to your health. Especially if you don't have a healthy relationship with your food.

As for your steak scenario. You could go with a lean steak and instead of butter use a pam type of spray for the oil to fry it. If you need that much steak to feel full how about adding fiber such as squash, cauliflower, broccoli, green beans. Which those could be steamed with added seasoning for flavor. (Also would help with your cholesterol) Plus it helps you go poop really well. If your doing it before bedtime then would wait a while before going to sleep, because then you would get indigestion. Also, if you're wanting to eat that much before bedtime it could be that your not eating enough during the day.

Also be sure to stay hydrated by drinking a good amount of water, because sometimes when you think you're hungry it could be that your actually thirsty.

Hope this helps. Have a good day 🤗

Body Positivity was created by fat people FOR fat people.. but #BodyPositivity is almost entirely thin people who have appropriated the term and movement so they can humble brag and post selfies.. at the cost or erasing fat people from the movement. That's called fatphobia.

Really now? Last I checked...

The body positivity movement were for people to be positive about their body in general. People who are disabled, such as people who are in wheelchairs or amputees. People who are not born of societies standard of normal like being really tall or really short. People who have different pigmentation all together. It was to get everyone in general to be positive about their body and to accept the beauties that they are and to be comfortable in their own right. Yes, that also included people who were fat and skinny. Saying that the body positivity community was made by fat people for fat people is just getting that community twisted. Which y'all did that, because let's be honest that is a fat acceptance way of thinking. Thanks to that way of thinking y'all ruined that community single handedly, and are now upset that fitpo/thinspo is ruining it for y'all is pretty hypocritical. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Prime example of why alot of people don't like either communities!

You: "don't glorify being fat, it's a bad thing!! Fat acceptance and body positivity are a trap, you're glorifying obesity which means you'll never get healthy and lose the weight"

So you think we can change systemic racism while still glorifying racists... But you don't think we can teach people to leave fat people the fuck alone and that we're allowed to love being alive in our bodies. Make it make sense.

Ok mixing two things here. Fat acceptance is an occult that does glorify obesity, and the body positivity movement was swarmed by people of fat acceptance. So that cause is not what it was when it started.

Also, are you for real? I mean for real though you are gonna compare racism with y'all wanting the fat acceptance to be accepted?! You can't change the color of your skin, but you can change your weight boo boo. Racism and what y'all perceive as fat phobia is Not The Fucking Same Thing!

Also, in no way did I say that racism was ok in that post! Just stated forgetting the history and following what the media and gov are saying is what's bringing racism back! We were almost done with that shit, but nooo cancel movement want to act like it didn't happen along with the media which is controlled by the gov wants us to be at each others throat!

I suggest you educate yourself and figure out what exactly you perceive as discrimination, because boo boo this is not the same!

To say that you think everyone who should grow up and lose the weight *except* certain 'acceptable' cases like disability and mental illness, and then to go on and say you are anti fat acceptance, is tantamount saying that those people should live their lives hating themselves and never accepting their bodies. Accepting that being fat is nobody else's business but yours is CRITICAL to disabled and mentally ill folks because some of us will NEVER not be fat, and we refuse to live the rest of our lives being miserable about that fact. It's that fucking simple. If you're going to be transparently hypocritical, at least admit it and take that stupid fucking disclaimer out of your header, because it's meaningless virtue signalling.

Fat acceptance is toxic asf. To me it's a literal occult, because being ok with being fat is like saying I'm waiting here to die.

body positivity had it right until the fat acceptance swarmed in and took over. There are so many people who think being unhealthy is ok. There are way too many health issues that come with just staying fat.

Also, people with mental issues have to take medication that literally fucks up their hormones or other severe side effects. They can't help what happens to their bodies entirely, but they do try to get healthy physically as well. As for the people who are disabled they try as well to get healthy, and there are exercises that were made to help with that!

It's not being virtuous on my part just stating the facts, and from what I've witnessed with friends, families, and coworkers. 🤷🏻‍♀️

"excluding people with mental illness /disabilities" is the exact bullshit that we deal with every day, and proof that y'all need to keep your damn mouths shut. I can go around in my fucking wheelchair barely able to stand and still be shamed for my weight and told I should work it off, or "just diet" when I'm recovering from a fifteen year eating disorder. You CANNOT tell what mental illness or disability someone has just by looking at them, which means you should shut the fuck up.

Do you think the people who put me in a cringe complication for being happy about my makeup While Existing As Fat just apologized and pulled their video down when I told them I have a chronic pain disorder? Do you think the assholes on the street telling me I should be locked in a zoo for daring to wear a crop top took it back when I mentioned I can only stand for about fifteen minutes a day, without risking my joints literally popping out of their sockets? Do you think an apology would even mean a damn thing after they'd said it?

And for a group of people that insist WE'RE the ones ignoring science, y'all are really conviently ignoring that BMI has been repeatedly proved bogus and that epigenetics exist.

You're right on the whole we can't tell if someone has an eating disorder or disability.

It's the people who are just fine with being fat and ignore the science that are the problem. Like Tess holiday with her whole jig of saying that she is healthy when she isn't. Not to mention literally making a cult of people who openly harass you if you try to get healthy. In their group they will treat you like the enemy if you try that. Meanwhile, when she started to exercise she said that was fine? Yea, pretty much hypocritical, and not to mention she robbed her followers as well with the t-shirt incident.

As for the bmi it's a tool not the end all be all. Just like a weight scale. It's the doctors who go by it as a reference, and if they are using it as the end all be all then I would just disregard it. bc not everyone will have the same structure that was used for it. It's best to go with your judgement as well, because we know our bodies as well.

I get it it's frustrating as hell, because there are people who will openly insult you. Especially when they don't know the full story. All in all there are alot of assholes in this world.

Hope you have a better day! ☺️

These fat acceptance bitches are so sensitive and what they say isn’t even cohesive. I pointed out to one that “fatphobia” is not comparable to racism or homophobia (IT ISNT). Guess what? “Imagine comparing oppression to oppression” the message from them read and I instantly got blocked. I saw one say “being fat doesn’t impact your life so much” like??? all you FA blogs do is complain and bitch about how the world is set up against you. If they only spent the amount of time they spend online on losing weight…

They're weird and like to seem complicated. I mean technically they make things overly complicated for themselves by trying to be something that they're not. To me all in all the fa community seems more like a cult that doesn't wanna face reality.

Well have a good day and stay blessed.

I really need people trying to make posts about fat positivity and acceptance to understand that even in a perfect society w unlimited access to healthcare and a variety of food that there will still be fat people and thats ok.

posts that attribute fatness to healthcare and access to "healthy food" are not helpful, and also inaccurate to modern scientific understandings of how the human body works. Genes more than anything else predict your weight. the right kind of food or diet isn't gonna suddenly make people thinner (there isn't a single diet to date that's been proven to at all work). medicalizing fatness is unbelievably harmful, and the vast majority of medical issues said to be caused by fat.... aren't actually caused by them. some are loosely correlated, but many of them aren't even that. And even when people have conditions that lead to fatness, the fat should never be the focus! being fat helps you survive these conditions, and should never be "treated", especially not before any other medical problem.

Fat people don't deserve acceptance and positivity because they're victims who've been denied the right treatment, they deserve radical acceptance no matter why they're fat because they are human beings existing in a natural state. All human beings deserve the same respect and acceptance.

You contradicted your whole statement hun...

You say that there is always going to be fat people and that medical advice is not needed, but they are victims who never got the right treatment.

So which is it for you? Do they need medical attention? Or that genes alone is there to help you survive?

Also two statements you made about diets and medicalizing both do have tons and tons of researching behind them. Literally since the 50s they have been trying to figure out what to do in regards to trying to maintain a healthy body along with research of the health issues caused by being overweight or obese.

There are fad diets that people use as a shortcut to getting to a lower weight then there are diets that are lifestyle changes to promote a healthier lifestyle with time. Big difference.

Allot of medical issues do come with being overweight or obese. Some that can be fixed with a better lifestyle or some that are more permanent. Example you can change the fact of blood pressure with going to a healthier lifestyle and losing weight to help with that to where it can be managed better or with no signs of it anymore. Then there is diabetes where it sticks long term and can't be reversed once you have it, and that causes blindness or even amputation parts of the body due to this.

I suggest doing research because what you posted showed your ignorance to the reality of the situation. There is medical, nutrition, and therapy treatments to people who are obese/overweight. But it is up to the individual if they want that help, and unfortunately they don't go for those until it's to late to do anything to help them further. Worst case scenario cancer and least case is having hypertension for the rest of their life.

What are ur views on fat people ? Are u pro or anti fat acceptance

To be honest I just feel sad for fat people. Reason being majority of them have an eating disorder. This is usually due to some sort of trauma. As someone who is obese I know how hard it is for change, and the first step is to focus on the main problem that is causing this eating disorder. Using food as comfort is never the answer!

I am in no way saying it's simple to do! From my own personal experience I have been working on my self for 5+ years now. There have been many bumps and set backs on this journey. I've managed to be more in control on my binging and try not to go to food for comfort. Half way towards where I want to be mentally and now am working on myself physically. Time is key, and there are no short cuts to this.

As for fat acceptance, I'm definitely anti. There are so many resources out there to be able to attain a healthy weight for your body. Staying fat is just the easy way out of trying to get healthy. Not to mention to many health issues that comes with being fat/obese. But all in all it's up to the individual to change for their better. Just sucks that majority of the time it usually happens when an irreversible health issue arises to put people on the jump to trying to get healthy.

Also don't agree with a lot of the fat acceptance movement sayings. Pretty much seems like a cult. If you try to change for the better for yourself; you are instantly outed as a traitor to their cause. That is such a toxic mentality! Friends who supported you are now against you?!

Sorry for long response, but this is my opinion. Hope you have a lovely day and many more to come. 😁

How many times is someone's 'glow up' just them losing weight and nothing else? A glow up is someone becoming more confident. A glow up is someone finding the style that makes them really happy. A glow up is someone getting more rest and looking overall happier. None of these things require you to lose weight, period- y'all are just fatphobic.

Ever thought that this is their glow up for their personal journey? Someone who loses weight for the right reasons will become more confident in their new body, because for all you know they could have felt terrible in the overweight/obese body that they had. Also not to mention the accomplishment they feel for the goals they set out for themselves to get to the point of where they are happy. Whether if that is to be able to hike up a hiking path that they couldn’t do when they were overweight/obese, because it caused them so much pain on their knees or ankles when having to carry the extra weight. Heck even running/jogging can be hell when you are overweight/obese. To some these are simple things, but any physical activity that someone wants to do when they are overweight/obese is hard! Due to the fact of the strain it causes on your body.  What you see as fat phobic is just someone wanting to be healthier. Granted I am not including the people who went the unhealthy route to get to that point.

As for getting rest and overall being happier to some that does require weight loss. Due to health issues that come from being overweight/obesity. 

I hope that this gives you a different perspective, because not everything is fat phobia.
