If a "large" person made fun of your weight and you're THIN?

Question

How stupid is this? Has anyone had this happen to them and would you go there and call them on their weight when it's actually a health/hygiene problem?

Answer 1

ya its happened to me too..just ignore it he/she wishes they were like u and their jealous and thats how they show it

Answer 2

If some fat person made fun of me because I'm skinny, I'd make fun of them right back! I mean, just because they are fat doesn't make them more of a person than a skinny healthy person (well it does because there is more of them, but thats in a different way).

Answer 3

Fat people like to say that some people achieved a thin figure by not eating.  While this is true for some, there are a lot of thin people fortunate enough not to have an issue with weight.

The fat person probably feels bad about their fatness and is projecting their negative feelings onto you.  Say something subtle, but pointed in response next time it happens.

Answer 4

Well, if you have skin tight pants on a rack of bones with skin on and your pants are slipping up the crack of your behind then you're just asking for it aren't you?

Being too thin is a health problem too.

Are you sure it's not just bad karma being made fun of by a "large" person?

Answer 5

I get this all the time. Most larger people are just concerned about my tiny stature. After I tell them I have always been thin they stop asking. No harm no foul.

Answer 6

Maybe she/he is into large body ideal (LBI). Just tell the person that LBI is not hip and it has been replaced by small body ideal (SBI). Get real.

Answer 7

Did you turn him down?

Answer 8

Cut the guy a break.

Answer 9

THIS WAS ENTERTAINING!!  LOL  I AM A SLENDER WOMAN AND FAT WOMEN ACT LIKE I STUFFED FOOD DOWN THEIR THROATS!!  JUST IGNORE THEM!!  JUST TELL THEM THEIR BEST EXCERSISE IS TO PUT DOWN THE KNIFE AND FORK AND WALK AWAY AFTER EATING A DECENT MEAL!!
