This is just another form of bullying by an insecure person. Bullies are, by their very nature, insecure and have to have someone upon whom to look down. It is the same reason that some people hate those of other races or of other religions or of other origins. Here is a good thought on this, though.
As I get older, I see the people who were bullies when I was younger become real losers. Many still use their Middle School nicknames when they are 50, and still talk about that "big game" they won in High School. Those of us who are bullied and rejected usually do better than them in life, as we learn to be more resilient and less dependent upon peer approval. In my case, I was small and fat, and never got picked for teams until last. My last year of High School, I lost some weight and got a bit more fit. Then the Army found me and I found the Army. Years later, the bullies did not recognize me as they bragged about old sports games at reunions. My uniform showed my awards and my jump school wings. My team did not win games. We won wars. And I told the bullies to go back to their house trailers while I traveled the world. Ignore the idiots who judge you by your weight or other false flags. They are just morons who think that they are big shots now... but not forever.

Unfortunately there are a lot of people like that in the world. However, there are also a lot of people who see past the size. I am a rather curvy girl myself. I learned over time that people's judgement will always be there. Even if you were skinny you would have some people judge you on something else. It's never ending. You can't control what they say or how they act. The only thing you can control is how you view you. Let them be disrespectful. It's a harsh reality but there will always be people out there who do that. The key is to take care of you and worry about you. My fiance is gorgeous and he prefers curvy gals. It's just his taste. I'm sorry it's a bit hard to deal with now but it gets better the stronger you are with yourself.
They do it because they are insecure and need to feel like the cool guy. And what easier way for a small-minded person to feel superior than pick on someone they feel is "beneath" them? Unfortunately this society kind of tolerates treating others poorly based on size, so fat girls are an easy target to them. Also, some guys who are loud and negative about overweight girls secretly like them and try to cover it up. The bottom line is: He's a jerk and trying to be cool, and you don't deserve to be treated like that!
There is always something to make fun of, whether you're curvy or skinny, short or tall, white or black. I've been made fun of for my ears since I was little. I think a lot of it stops when they get older and more mature (which could be a while for some guys!). Also, the older you get-the easier it is to handle. You have to be secure with yourself and let their rude comments roll off your back.
if I know a guy makes fun of fat girls, I won't date him because it says something about his character. the way a guy acts , what he believes and what he says- I judge and I analyze that. if he comes as a complete asshole aka. makes fun of fat people, I do not associate with him. I do not like putting up with assholes.

Don't listen to the ignorant people, they're not worth it. I realize that doesn't really help if people call you names or whatever 'cause your bigger, but it's true. Some guys (and girls) are just bullies, or insecure themselves and pick on other people to make them feel better.
What you should know is that you are not alone. In our society, anything or anyone that is different (including body type) from what is considered normal is prone to getting ridiculed. That's just the way it is and it is our job as intelligent beings to not do this and break from our instincts.
Guys don't just make fun of fat girls. We make fun of everything. There is a difference between people who joke about it, and people who actually try and hurt someone's feelings though. It sounds like this guy was trying to hurt you.
don't sweat what a football player says, they are just giant goons and in college they will get beer bellies and you will have the last laugh
Never. Not until you die.
probably when they grow balls
You shouldn't generalize guys.
