Why Is Society and the Media Promoting Obesity?

[Redeemed]

Being someone who knows people who have gone from obese and overweight to healthy and fit/toned, I know its achievable.

But how society and the media are basicaly promoting obesity and being overweight is giving people, mostly girls, an excuse to be lazy and unhealthy (not exercise, not eat healthy, etc.).

Does this look healthy to you?

In fact, in essence they're condoning obesity and saying that being unhealthy can be beautiful. Those are girls are all beautiful, but being obese/overweight does not make them so; instead it makes them very unhealthy, causing a lot of problems (Type 2 Diabetes, Sleep Apnea, Fatty Liver disease, Kidney disease, etc.) for them and for those closest to them. And to be honest, being obese and overweight (being unhealthy) definitely detracts from the person's outward beauty/handsomeness (significantly when being obese). To me, that person comes across as if they don't care about themselves/their body and that they're more prone to being lazy.

I know being healthy is not a piece of cake, but it's worth it. I myself am currently undertaking an exercise challenge which will hopefully help me get in shape like Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman).

It is possible for anyone to be healthy and get in shape.

Its rare that some people have a disease (such as Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)) where they can't lose weight, I get that, and they can try to get help from a doctor, etc. But for the majority of people, be the best you can be: be healthy! Please, for the well being of you and those you love!

Here are some links to medical articles on the dangers of obesity and being overweight:

And here are some links to help those who are obese or overweight to get healthy and in shape (didn't mean to rhyme there 😜):

I must point out that someone can be skinny-fat. That means that they are not overweight, but they are at a high risk of having health problems (mostly heart issues) because they do not exercise, or exercise enough, as well as eat healthy.

Here are some easy, at home exercises to help you stay in shape:

And I know for the most part it's a lot easier for guys to lose weight and get fit, but girls, don't give up! It's possible for anyone to be healthy and fit. Stay the course and never give up, and you will see that it is totally worth it.

NOTE:

If anyone is interested in more in depth exercise tips/advice, or any other health tips/advice, feel free to let me know and I can make a post about one or some of those.

Are the obese women in those pictures real? I would barf if I saw one like that in front of me.
Anyway, it's feminism that influences society and media to promote obesity. Why are feminists doing that? Because they want to turn the world upsidedown and go against what we have always been told. And hey, it benefits the feminists because now they can slack off and still expect everyone to think they're attractive. Jokes on them if they think others will find their obesity attractive. Society and media is too lazy to fight back for what is right. There is not enough traction. Not enough power to fight back. People need to step up and show feminists and the media the right way to live.

"The media," whoever that is. Can you be more specific? Anyway, it's pretty simple why you see a push for plus-sized models and more clothing manufacturers and retailers are advertising them-- because literally half of America is overweight and they'll pay money for the clothes. Companies care about one thing, and one thing only, in this life: Money. The almighty dollar. Literally nothing else. If it was losing them money to advertise fat girls, they wouldn't do it. But people *buy* huge clothing for fat people because, simply, people are fat and they need clothes. Is it promoting obesity in a way? Yep... and they don't care.

That's all.

Being obese is bad for your health.

You can sugar coat it as much as you like, but it won't change the facts

[SuccessfulHornDog]

Sugar coated. yummmm

[englisc]

Sugar coating it doesn't help - they eat too much sugar as it is.

We all need to focus on a "healthy lifestyle" being as automatic as having a "good toothbrushing lifestyle" or a "safe driving lifestyle". And it doesn't het any easier as you gain experience, er, I mean, get older. :- )

Oprah Winfrey glamorized obesity during the 90's. Ashley Graham does that now. Meghan Trainor glamorized obesity with her "All About That Bass" music video. I recently learned that 30 percent of the world's population is overweight. China is a big country with a large population. Imagine two Chinas full of overweight people. That's about how many people are overweight in this world. South Africa is full of fat black women. South Africa is almost like Samoa.

There's a difference between feminism and "feminatzi" look it up if you don't know but anyways people do it because of their feminatzi attitude and they always say stupid things like "men are useless pigs who sit on their asses all day" etc, because they are so miserable in their own way.

[Harsh_Ch]

The feminists present in different forms of the media do look obese... A convenient coincidence if I think so myself

so ultimately the media's feminism is a moment which is supposed to brainwash men into finding obese/undesirable/misandric women attractive , which will never happen

(Oh wait, it IS happening but not to the guys that these women WANT to attract... causing the rise of soyboys, desperate losers etc lol)

Population control, you notice none of these beasts have children. Throw in feminism, 'abortion is healthcare' nonsense. Women are easy to manipulate.

[Anon-ymous1]

The hell? You're kidding right? You see obscenely fat people with kids literally all the time! Where do YOU live?

[demonics]

@Anon-ymous1 Uhhh planet Earth? Obesity is severely detrimental to pregnancy and survival of the baby. They got fat AF post birth most likely. www.mayoclinic.org/.../art-20044409

[worldscolide]

Because the SJW left wants to push that it is healthy when it simply is not.. I should know i am very over weight and i am trying desperately to lose the weight.. I want to be able to play with my kids when i have them.

Agenda 21. It's about bringing humanity down and normalizing bad health.

Past 55:00 is where he starts talking about health.

Health is a business, brain washed sheep that become fat are more profitable.

[Jack_L_andTurn]

If people are fat the fast food/processed food/junk food and medical industries make far more money.

Political correctness, victim mentality, social justice BS... just general liberal mental illness.

[DJZest]

I have to say that you are totally on-point.

[HereIbe]

It is all, 100% just to make you miserable and die. The whole world revolves around you.

[Lance1965]

I haven't seen anyone promoting obesity? They promote body acceptance which is totally different.

[Anonymous]

The media is heavily pro women and very against men.

[Dchrls78104]

The reason is stupidity.

[laughinglad999]
