It's Okay to Fat Shame Women

1. Absence of fat shaming leads to more fat womenStrangely your source link does not open when clicked however when copy and pasted: http://authoritynutrition.com... can be read. Lets look at the research you refer to which only proves that comfort eating exists, and fails to prove that fat shaming leads to more fat women. "In a study of 93 women, exposure to weight stigmatizing information made overweight women, but not normal weight women, eat more calories and feel less in control of their eating"Fat shaming only affects people's eating behaviour if they are overweight. Women were not born fat, therefore fat shaming is not the reason why women are fat. The actual reason for obesity as said in round 2 is feminism. If the research you have provided is accurate, I can conclude that fat shaming cannot possibly lead to more women being fat, because fat shaming only affects women who are already fat. It can reduce the number of fat people though.I admit there will be women who after being fat shamed will think "I'm fat, that's just who I am, there's nothing I can do about it". They may gain more weight but should we feel pity and give them a card saying how beautiful they are? My answer is no. Obesity should never be accepted. If nothing is said, more women will believe what fat feminists say and become fat like them presumably so the fat women feel better about themselves. Men The women who give up on their health often have tried many different diets and blame men for putting pressure on them to go on yoyo diets, meaning fat shaming does work. The only reason why they are still fat is because feminists deny all responsibility for their weight and health. They try everything accept going to the doctor, eating less, eating healthy food, sleeping well and excercising. There is no excuse for not doing any of these things. Nobody force fed them, they did it to themself. Here is another snippet from your source:"Some believe that making overweight people feel ashamed of their weight or eating habits actually helps motivate them to lose weight"Believe it or not, there are two types of motivation: positive (enjoyment and pleasure), and negative (pain and pressure). We all prefer the positive type of motivation but that can't always motivate us, sometimes we do need negative motivation. Imagine someone who never gets to that low point in their life or acknowledges a problem, they will never change, something has to trigger them to do something. Also the research you have shown does not even show the number of healthy women who will not go down the same unhealthy path as a result of knowing fat women being shamed and learning what men do find attractive. 2. Most men are attracted to healthy looking women, so why should they [men] not fat shame.Men should not stop fat shaming women because of what biased studies say. Appealing to the other sex is a motivator. By accepting obesity, people will be demotivated to be healthy and not respect other people's opinions, and then eat themselves to an early grave. 3. Most fat women are so because they are lazy, they overeat, and they hate men. Fat feminists hide behind those who are fat because of a medical condition saying no-one knows if they have one. If most women were fat because of a medical condition then it wouldn't be okay to fat shame but this isn't the case. "Obesity is usually the result of overeating, but in a small percentage of people excess weight gain is a symptom of another disease." [1]We should reduce the cost of obesity, and be able to express our anger in a polite way.4. Feminists are responsible for the obesity epidemic. The feminist movement known as 'fat acceptance' is making women proud to be fat. Most overweight women tend to be lazy, lack energy, have self-esteem issues and lack responsibility. Yet they say men should not judge a woman by her body and should simply find fat beautiful. [2] Men do not need to be told what they find attractive, this behaviour is not acceptable. The only way to stop this is to fat shame. sources:[1] http://www.webmd.com...[2] http://www.returnofkings.com...
