My mother calls me fat, as though it’s the worst thing in the world to be.
Frankly, I can think of many other traits that would be worse - murderer, liar, thief, cruel, deceitful, insane…but somehow, society pinpoints “fat” as the worst thing for a person to be.
My own mother even feels that she’d rather have me be a murderer, then fat.
I disagree. If I had to chose between being 300 pounds or being a murderer…I would always chose the former.
Weight can be changed. Personality traits…really can’t be.
I wish society would take a step back and realize that maybe being thin isn’t everything.
Maybe we should teach that to children.
