Why?
Because we live in a world where there are constant images
displayed of what we are expected to look like.
The images are displayed in magazines, television etc.
Half of the images that we see are false (because of the enhancements, make up, or photoshop
done to those people)
This is a very superficial world.
If you're too overweight...you're told you have to lose it.
if your hair starts to gray...you are told you have to dye it.
If your skin wrinkles..you're told you need botox.
This is a world where being young or youthful is constantly praised ,
and looking "healthy" is as well.
You cannot blame people...blame society.
People are born as blank slates.
We only become a molding of our environment.

Some has to do with what one finds visually arousing and the rest with social conditioning. You know, associating a thinner body with better health, etc.
Well I am sure there are some people that just like with most insults are just projecting their own fears onto the person/situation where they insult someone for being fat, they are actually worried about their own size and their self-esteem. There is a large amount of people that just dislike people that are either too skinny or too fat (in their eyes) and think they are inferior and think "why should I have to look at them!" and are just angry people.
Usually they are missing something in their life. So it's easier to critique others. To make themselves feel better.
God forbid they try and fix what's wrong.

I was obsessed with weight so my boyfriend wouldn't fall out of love with me. When guys constantly look up images/videos of thin girls that have perfect bodies, there's competition. There starts to be self hatred. why can't I look that way? Then paranoia, if he likes that so much, he's going to leave for someone who looks like her. It's a never ending cycle.
Cos they weren't skinny before or they get sensitive when they hear too many fat remarks / jokes going around.
I'm not weight crazed, but I want to be healthy and like women to be healthy because I'm attracted to healthy looking women.
Prefer my women to be hourglass.
