Do you think skinny people tend to be meaner than normal/overweight people on average?

[Spoopy_Alien]

I know this is a tired stereotype, but I often wonder if there is truth to it. In my experience, thin people seem to be more judgmental and hypersensitive, while heavier people seem more laid back and friendly on average. I know this is a generalization, and I'm not saying this is factual (just wondering).

What have you noticed? (if anything at all)

Some of you really need to read the whole post before you decide to get offended and bitch about how "incorrect" I am. I NEVER ESTABLISHED ANY OF THIS AS FACT, it's a fucking opinion. If you disagree, then fine, just don't act like a little bitch about it.

I've noticed something like that in Japan but only for guys but not girls. But that includes huge guys with muscles, like bodybuilders. They're some of the most laid-back guys I ever found.

Meanwhile, I spent maybe too much time in bars and clubs, but the ones who would start trouble were often like some very skinny drunk guy picking on a bigger one (and the bigger one would often be the bigger man in that scenario, both literally and figuratively speaking).

[SuperTroll]

Same with sumo wrestlers. I met lots of them and they're ridiculously mellow and very kind to everyone... probably because they can snap a guy's arm off if they wanted. :-D

[SuperTroll]

You'd think it'd be opposite... like the smaller and skinnier guys should be nicer since they're bound to get their ass whooped if they got in a fight, while the big guys should be fine being assholes since they don't need to worry about losing in a fight very often. But I found it's more often the opposite in my experience.

[SuperTroll]

Like small guy, big attitude -- big guy, small attitude. :-D Not always true by any stretch -- just that when I see something extreme, that seems more often true than not.

[cavmanier]

I think there is little to no difference other than skinny people likely on average feel more desirable by the opposite sex which can lead to confidence where arrogance often follows.

[VIVANT]

Yes I have noticed this.

You’re not skinny if that’s you in the picture, you’re slightly thick -average. The question was about skinny people. You are rude though and block people just for disagreeing with you, maybe you have a skinny chip on the inside. 🤷‍♀️

[SexyAshh]

How cute, you make a whole post about me because you can't post on mine.

Thanks for being such a fan👏😘❤️

[SexyAshh]

Ahh, To be 21 and dumb..😊

[AlienParasite]

In my experience I haven't recognized any pattern. I've met all options, mean fat, mean thin, nice chubby and nice skinny. I could say there's more mean skinny people but that's because I know more skinny people than fat, on average and by percentage feels pretty similar.

[deangelisbabe]

it may have something to do with weight and looks but i don’t think that’s very common. i think someone’s personality just depends who raised them and how they were raised and just the people they grew up with.

[Dido_Dido]

I've noticed that with guys. Puny, skinny, and babyfaced men seem to always have sticks up their asses. They overcompensate. I haven't noticed any differences with girls though.

[lincantationl]

From my experience from chubby to a very skinny person I’ve been treated in a mean way from all kinds of people, overweight and skinny. Especially now that I’m very skinny I hear complains and mean shit all the time, from family too. I hear them from slim people, from normal people and from overweight people.

[SaraSmithishere]

I'm from a major city and I grew up with kids who were thin, average, slightly chubby or fit, but mainly average or fit. They were all normal, well-adjusted people. I went to college and met a lot of mean men and women who were overweight, who also seemed to have no self-control and chips on their shoulders. In fact, the people who were rudest to thin little me were overweight.

[Katebfun]

No.. why would weight have anything to do with it. Regardless people have problems just because your skinny does not make one immune to issues. I've seen an array of assholes skinny, fat, ugly and pretty. The less attractive you are I've noticed those are more open and kind vs others who are superficial and have a I'm better attitude. Wealth and education seems to make people privileged and delusional that thier better than others, they can be fat and skinny.

[jennifer_bloom]

I've met a lot of overweight people with anger issues and I've met a lot of thin and attractive people that were kind an easy going. Personality is not based on looks.

[Sadbby]

I’ve seen a lot of overweight girls being rude more than thinner girls.

[Dido_Dido]

Sounds like you're suffering from confirmation bias.

[HomoFuge]

I am skinny and I try not to be mean to people. Of course I am human like everyone else and say hurtful things in anger but I don't go out of my way to be intentionally malicious to people.

[Secret6620]

I am more angry when I am smaller and that's just because I am deprived. 🥰

[SexyAshh]

Yes cuz we’re not eating comfort food every 4 seconds like the overweight people.

[BlahBlahBlah_SAUSAGE]

Not all overweight people are self indulgent fools you idiot. Some have very slow metabolisms, while others have medical conditions that make it difficult for them to lose weight even if they try hard. Ignorant comments like yours are what give some people eating disorders.

[SexyAshh]

Im certified and have a degree in nutrition. For the most part, its just a bad diet and laziness, but you a smarter then I. Ok☺️❤️👍.

[RussianNestingDoll]

When I was thinner, I felt more vulnerable so I was a little meaner. Plus I could run away faster.

[stormbreaker06]

I've noticed bigger women can be the most outspoken and rude

[douride2]

I have never noticed a correlation between thin & mean.

[BlahBlahBlah_SAUSAGE]

I've noticed that both very underweight and very obese people are the saltiest.

[Lucina_Rose]

No. Certain people are. Since when was one's body type a factor in one's attitude?

[Spoopy_Alien]

Once again, I never stated any of this as fact. It's just an observation of mine, and I was curious to see other people's opinions. Read the whole fucking post before you start bitching.

[Uru_DS]

From wherever you found out that this is a myth, trust that place. It's right.

[CoffeeWC]

I don't really see any truth to it. I feel like this stereotype originated from people who were offended by skinny people when they were told to lose weight. Or maybe by people who were jealous of skinny people.

[Spoopy_Alien]

I don't see any truth to your "theory." Also, no one should be jealous of skinny people, if anything, people should jealous of those with a BMI of 20-22 (normal) since that is the healthiest weight range to be in.

[Mamamialetmego]

Because they dominated and bullied since childhood and they developped defence mechanism.

[tonicandgin]

no i think fat people are bigger bullies since they take their insecurity out on skinny people

[Spoopy_Alien]

Funny, because overweight children are more than 30-50% more likely to experience verbal assault and peer victimization than their thinner counterparts. Do your research.

[GiveMeAllTheCookies]

Nope. Never noticed that.

[wolfsugar]

Yes i have noticed the same thing as you
