Fat girls outraged over being called "Fat girls" on restaurant check - Polidicks

Haha, when they started offering the free shit it was just because he wanted the chicks to stfu.

[QUOTE=CaptainRagequit;38755948]Although I don't agree with what the way they're presenting it ("like, like, like"/emotional issue) I don't think they should be the ones getting the hate. I mean, sure they're fat, and thats their own issue they have to deal with. I'm sure most of them are self aware that they're fat too. So when someone calls them fat or does something like this, it's just stupid and insulting. I mean, I'm sure most of you here have some type of autism (remember this is facepunch), so how would you take it if someone wrote "autistic fucktard" on your bill? Sure they can fix it and you can't fix autism, but it's the emotional damage that comes with calling someone those words.. In all of my life the most hurtful things I've ever experienced are what people have said to me. I'm kind of driving off the point but I don't think people should be treating them like shit. Yes, they're fat, but do you really have to go around ruining someones day because of it?[/QUOTE] If someone labelled me as a loudmouthed autistic stark raving mad fucktard i would laugh my dick to space.

[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;38754882]Do you people go up to fat people and say "HEY FATTY, GO LOSE WEIGHT, BECAUSE YOU'RE FAT. YOU CAN'T CRY BECAUSE IT'S THE TRUTH!!!!" Seriously, the way some of you are reacting, that's how I see you people in real life.[/QUOTE] I don't think anyone in here would actually write "Fat chicks" on a receipt, and I don't think anyone really disagrees with the fact that the waiter should get fired, or at least disciplined. The thing is, they're acting like it's something they have to live on with forever or something, and it's not. Yep, it's very rude, but the restaurant said sorry, they're firing the waiter and they wanted to give them 50% off. If it was a black guy and the receipt the "the worthless nigger" or something, it'd be racism, but "fat" is just a way to describe someone, not necessarily a word with a negative connotation. I mean, we don't offended by someone calling some body "the guy with the glasses and bald spot", even if that's not necessarily the sex appeal in today's society. Edit: It sounds a bit like I'm saying it's okay calling somebody fat, which it certainly isn't.

I want a foursome with them. They will keep me warm in the winter.

"We can't change it, This is something that we got to live with, all three of us." Uhh Yes you can? Why don't the 3 of you hit the fucking GYM every now and again, its not a born disease you can never fix, just go for a jog every now and a again jesus christ

[QUOTE=Ownederd;38754920]lol the basic point is that it's common courtesy to not act socially retarded[/QUOTE] This just in! People are rude sometimes, more at 11. It's not news.

Maybe you should lose some weight if you're insecure about the current state of your body.

[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;38764200]Maybe you should lose some fucking weight if you're insecure about the current state of your body.[/QUOTE] You really think some people aren't trying? We live on a society that shames women if they're not reaching unhealthy levels of thinness. "Be skinny, but make sure you're fat in the butt and boobs, because otherwise you're unwomanly! Similarly, even if you have boobs and a butt, but aren't teeny tiny in the thighs, arms, and waist, you're too fat, and therefore unwomanly!" You'll always be "too" something, "not __ enough," and never good enough. The female ideal, in our culture, is impossible. It is photoshopped, made-up, unobtainable, skinny but fat in all the right places, corseted, backlit, dyed, plastic, bleached, and waxed past the point of any "real" womanhood. No one can ever meet the ideal: even the models who pose for it are airbrushed and mutilated under a cursor in photoshop, or are put under the knife to be made "more like" their own photoshopped images. It's absurd, unhealthy, and damaging for everyone involved. [QUOTE=Barbarian887;38757490]How is calling a fat person fat degrading or insulting? It's like calling a tall person tall, except the only difference is the fatasses chose to be fat, they made the decision to shovel in massive amounts of calories while never exercising...[/QUOTE] Maybe because currently society is hammering women daily constantly with messages of "you have to be thinner than a bean pole" Some people don't get fat because they eat too much. One of my friends had to go on anti depressants, she gained 10 kilos in 2 weeks while keeping the same alimentation. She effectively had to choose between being "fat" by the society/media standards or being completely broken psychologically There's nothing wrong with being "fat", it starts being dangerous for anyone with obesity for sure, but I don't think the women who got called "fat chicks" are obese

[QUOTE=laylay;38757971]The point is that you shouldn't feel insulted for being called fat - that's just what you are. Don't like it? Start living a healthy lifestyle then.[/QUOTE] You're a stupid piece of shit. Hey, don't be offended, it's just what you are.

Why do you mention just women? Anyway, that's a different topic. I agree, there is nothing wrong with being fat. But there's a lot of things wrong with demanding people to treat you like a shielded child just because you lack the self respect and motivation to work on yourself a little.

You don't tell depressed people "stop being sad" just like how you don't tell fat people "get self-respect". It's a very insensitive thing to do.

I wonder if they'd have reacted the same if it said 'Skinny girls'? You know, the complete polar opposite to what they are. Do you think they'd have cared as much? Would they have taken the same amount of offence to sarcasm?

[QUOTE=OzJackal;38763436]stop being fat problem solved[/QUOTE] it's a person's right to be fat if they want to be, and feel happy about it. but this isn't accounting for the sheer amount of people who are effected by eating disorders (it's incredible how seriously we take bulimia and anorexia but not those associated with obesity) it is not your right, however, to insult them at will for either their personal choices or things they have no control over. the amount of assholes in this thread is incredible and you wonder why you're all lonely as fuck

Obviously they're not pressured to the same level, but all there is to it is some grooming and a healthy lifestyle. Male or female, doesn't matter. A little work on yourself can get you to average from any level. Exceptions prove the rule.
