Being fatigued at the very idea of finding out what those you criticize actually think. As opposed to just making it up. Because its easier. Because its takes less effort. Because you just can’t be bothered.
Let’s be honest, that’s just plain lazy.

The "impossible to lose weight" straw man
Re this question;
What are your thoughts on the fat acceptance movement and the fact they believe both that it’s impossible to lose weight and that being overweight is healthier?
I’ve already made this point, but I’ll say it again. It is not impossible to lose weight-this is a straw argument certain weight loss diet apologists love to make. What is unlikely is that fat people or...

“In Summary, Happiness is the state of being of our true self, which we have...”
– This.
This is what I believe.
That we do not “learn to love ourselves” we are born that way. We re-learn how to restore our birthright, each time with a greater sense of its worth. That is the journey back to self acceptance.

I'm an unbeliever now
You know how fat haters don’t believe or believe in fat people? They don’t believe we have followed the fat hating instructions we’ve been given? Their beliefs will not allow them too and such is their desire for those beliefs that they’ll sacrifice us to them?
Well……..

The idea that fat is superfluous is our notion,...
Our bodies do not behave as if fat tissue is expendable. It treats it more like its integral tissue.
Therefore, when we attack our fat stores through forced calorie restriction and/or heightened expenditure. Our body defends against this strategy and that is why diets don’t work.
The body does not “think there’s an on coming famine”. These defenses are the only we have...

We are all products of the fat hating mentality. Fat people are no different. Don’t let anyone tell you there is a “fat side” that is what we are reviving/creating now.
The way we see mostly see eating, weight, activity, metabolism, has been defined by the demands of serving the belief that weight must be controlled through eating.
It is not objective.

From an article;
Half the world is starving the other half ‘obese’.
If you want to refer to that, why not;
Half the world is starving, the other half trying to?
Fatness is not going to stand in for consumerist excess. Collective guilt is not going to be fat people’s shame.

You know what? FA = fat people occupying fatness
We’ve never been allowed or allowed ourselves to just occupy being fat and fully human. The fatness we’ve been living thus far has been sold to us by others. To fulfill their needs, not ours.

hatilda-deactivated20121007 asked: The best thing about obesity as a concept is that it is supposed to mean fat but then when a thin person gets "fat person diseases" like type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, etc people will say that thin people can be obese on the inside.

People assumed we were engaging in hype. Because the ‘obesity’ crusade is all about hype, everyone else must be too.
