I would like to start with a question... Is being over weight really a curse to a human..? I mean I have witnessed people spending almost their entire lives on controlling diet, exercising, getting slim....looking beautiful.. Does looking beautiful requires becoming slim? Doesn't it require a beautiful mind instead..? It is so unfair people getting rejections in friends/peer group, jobs, society, marriage proposals, etc. just because they are fat. No one sees the continuous effort they put in each day to get in shape majorly because fat people are not considered smart enough in the society. And I am sorry to say.... I hate this word.."Society", what bullshit is it..???? Is it for taking each other's care or cursing them for something which is maybe, uncommon, unacceptable.. Such a hypocritical world, I must say.
Yes, I am fat...and since my childhood I am fighting with it, also I am a foodie. Does this make me not look nice? Probably, yes.! Even if I start accepting my obesity, the society will not let me accept it. We spend so much money on slimming centres, avoid sweet to some extent, have to face difficulties in clothes stores (a lot of rejections there....uhh..), boutiques measurements, restaurants...of God.. I can't even count it.. But yes..it happens DAILY! And for fat women, It Is A Curse..!!! REALLY..
Start from anywhere... TV shows...slim girls gets good guys, fat girls...they does not exist in TVs, Family/friends parties...slim people wear nice dresses and enjoy with eating all junkies, whereas we, well our conscience doesn't allow us to look at them and junk food, Movies..again..only slim actors, no one makes movies on overweight people..why?? True that being overweight calls for some diseases...but that's it!! Why on earth is it so difficult for anyone to like fat human beings, and why do they make fun of us? Are we aliens, or animals? I am definitely sure that obese men and women have a wonderful heart and intelligent mind, equivalent or more than slim ones. I want to make everyone realize how hard working are obese people, no one can do such hard work and I can bet on it. I call it Societal Chauvinism.. this is what is
happening to especially Indian society where people have started distinguishing people on this basis so much that it has become like caste-ism. My own family members says to me, I should settle down in USA as there people do not distinguish on such basis. Seriously, stop it! It's enough.. There are clothes stores names "Pluss" etc... whats that?? Are we so bad that some speciality stores are opened? Or are the designers so narrow minded that they can't design for fat people..? Anything can happen, so it would be advisable to make some slight changes on the way we deal with overweight issues.. This is a lucrative issue..
