"No such thing as overweight" Really?
Ugliness and strangeness however, are subjective.
And these aren't the only things "the world throws at you". There are many other terrible things in this universe that happen besides being overweight, "ugly", or "strange", like getting bullied, getting ostracized due to being of a different racial or religious group, having to say goodbye to someone you've held dear for so long, getting murdered, going broke...the possibilities are endless!
Back onto topic, I'm really sorry but I have to say that excessive obesity leads to an increased risk of health problems such as cardiac arrest and diabetes. You can't just sweep the issue of obesity under the carpet like that. People need to be taught that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important and not that it's perfectly normal and acceptable to live so unhealthily that you end up making William H. Taft look slim.
My sincere apologies for the rant. I'm really sorry. I'm really fussy and I get seriously set off by these kind of statements at times. ×_×
