Sizists= People against fat people

This debate is too long over due. The magazines imply that being skinny is the only way. You will never see a hefty woman posing in Vogue. That's because the world is prejudiced to fat people. An overweight person can't walk in the street without hearing the snickers behind them or the sick looks. Who are we to look down on anybody. We are all flawed individuals. Maybe theirs is more open than ours but we don't have the right to change them. It's not funny and it hurts people's feelings. That's right people's feelings. They are not aliens or seperate life forms but people. They are America. It's not even some of their fault they may have a thyroid problem or something else of that nature. So you can also be picking on a very sick person. Some people see ridicule as encouragement for them to lose weight. But if you keep putting them into depression they just eat and get bigger. They are people too. Sometimes we are too focused on physical image that we don't even see the person inside and that's not right. But you know what I'm gonna grab my fat and be proud. Because maybe we can't change everyone in the world but fat people can take pride in themselves and maybe the jokes will bounce off our rolls. We can always fix being fat but they can't fix how ugly their insides are. So you know what? I'm gonna get some dessert. So America can suck it!!!

Me and my boyfriends fight.

This week we fought not about his debauchery or anything of that nature. But today we fought about Ramadan. Which is a Muslim tradition to not eat throughout the day then eat at night. That includes drinking. I asked him how does this benefit you? That's when a fuse just sparked into a heated debate. His argument: By not using all of your body's energy on digestion the body can repair itself. My Counter: But doesn't food supply the nutrients to help repair these things? He says: It gives the body time to do things like unplug your arteries. I laughed at this. What's the use of that when he pigs out all day right after. It's true I've witnessed him gulp down all his food and take some of mine. I just don't understand why he cant eat 3 meals a day even if they are small. There's also a big risk of dehydration. We live in Miami where it's burning hot. He's into sports so how is he going to keep himself hydrated. He doesn't understand how I watch him suffer every year. He's tired and irratable all the time and not really fun to be around when you're eating. If you have any arguments for or against this tradition write a comment.
