... what the fuck is 'deathfat'?

As near as I can tell, what is otherwise known as "morbidly obese". Deathfats claim there's something known as "smallfat privilege", which I think is being able to wear a size 18 and find a store that stocks clothes in your size in any reasonably-sized town compared to being size 40 and having to order everything online.

There's no such thing as "smallfat privilege", much less thin privilege... It's like, if you're morbidly obese, please get help. It's not healthy, like it or not.

Not saying there is. This thread isn't called "Worst of Social Justice" for nothing.

Spoken like someone who has plenty of thin privilege. Has it ever crossed your mind that we don't know how to effectively treat obesity yet?

... See, I qualify as 'morbidly obese', being 5'6" and 280+.  I'll admit that I'm a fat fucker and I could stand to lose weight.  That being said? I can still find 44 and 46 waist jeans and XXL or XXXL shirts, even dress shirts, at Target, Wal-Mart, Sears and JC Penney's with little effort.  I don't even have to look online.  If you're having a hard time finding clothes that fit at an average retailer like that, the problem ain't with the rest of humanity.

Even if I weren't morbidly obese, I would still have to purchase the tall T-shirts. Those are hard to find in stores.

There are big and tall stores, 'long' designations on shirts in some stores, online ordering... still not seeing a whole lot of issue.

It's hardly an "average retailer" at that point, though.

Oh my god the OP is a fat "admirer."

From their titled post:
Quote
...it means we’ve ended up in a society where good health- in the form of good medical facilities and factual information on how to avoid illnesses and problems- is no longer regarded as kindness and right to be extended to everyone, regardless of who they are...

Another post from their blog:
Quote
Not that she started out wanting to grow fatter. That was his addiction; not hers. But she seems to have been swallowed up by the desire; internalised it… and it has grown unreasonable and insensate within her.

Everyone is entitled to factual information on good health and avoiding illness. Except for the OP's future girlfriend.

Wouldn't it be quite a long revolution with the amount of people they'd have to kill?
