Your judgement that the logic doesn't work assumes that this is the extent of the logic. We are told fat is unredeemably bad, but we are never told of the scores of diseases fat people body image get less than thin people or survive at greater rates than thin people. Whenever data indicates that a disease is more common amongst fat people, it is used as a weapon to intimidate fat people, but the judgement body image is no more valid than using that same logic in body image the reverse. You assume fat is a disease. That's where your logic doesn't really work. Posted by Brian on July 28, 2003 08:18 PM. I have to agree with you, Brian. I do not see fat as a disease, most fat people are as healthy & live as long as most thin people. I am not telling anyone who is naturally thin to TRY to gain weight, but our culture constantly tells those of us who are naturally fat that we should lose weight.
