Overweightness and Obesity?

Ok theres average build - which is acceptable - there is large build - which in modern day is also acceptable, Then there is obesity - which is repulsive

What do you think?

Saying that obesity is repulsive isn't the same as saying obese people are repulsive. The condition is repulsive. It not only looks awful but it takes a dreadful toll on the body. I'm sure most obese people are perfectly nice people.... Personally, I'd say it's their own business how fat they are except that I'm fed up of getting wedged between two fat people on long haul flights.

I think its repulsive too, if thats what youre asking. I think many people are overweight becuz they just dont care about themselves. Others have it genetically, others are heavy due to a medication. Some over eat. There are many reasons but I think the biggest reason is becuz they dont care.
I think beauty, like the predjudice you display, is in the eye of the beholder.
I have met people who were obese, yet to this day I think they are the most beautiful people I know. And then there is Jessica Simpson....wonder how many people find her beautiful once they get to know her? Physical beauty is a cultural thing and has nothing to do with the human being's true beauty, that lies in the soul....those who look no further than the physical package are ignorant and have no soul.
Many, many people are obese because of medical issues and your statement is very uncalled for and insensitive.

Some are naturally overweight, are aware of this but not matter what diet and exercise they undertake it makes no difference.

To judge people by their appearance and say they are replusive is very narrow minded as some of the nicest folks I have known have been larger than the so called acceptable average.
I come back from a couple of months in India earlier this year, as soon as i was back the first thing i noticed was hoe overweight people in England are, so many fat arses and overweight kids, its not good at all.
I think it's a propblem within our society and its wrong to pick on individuals as it is part of a problem that comes from the way we live our lifes. Look at people from the states then you get an idea of what we look like to other countrys who are healthier. Processed food, and lack of activity is to blame. To much time on the internet, in front of the t.v and down the pub and too much time at work !!!!
Obesity simple means you are more than half as heavy as you should be for your height and sex.
Clinically obese people are those who are double or more than double the weight they should be. Both are nothing to be proud of because both mean you will DIE long before you should because your heart has to work too hard and your arteries have more lard in them than blood. Both also mean you have an eating disorder and need medical help to get well, there is no such thing as big boned and anyone who says they absorb fat through their skin and cannot help it, need the most help because that is delusional!
im with you on this one,only solo rose!
