Ha! You beat me to the punch. I was gonna post a link to Jayman because he literally has the best take-down of the fat people = weak-willed meme. In fact, he shows that obesity is about 80% genetic and little of the variance in weight is explained by behavior (i.e., eating too much).I wanted to post the link to Jayman over the Roosh V forum after Roosh appeared on Dr. Oz bashing fat women, but I knew I would get banned. They’re too wrapped up in their ideology that fat Western women = evil and must be destroyed at all costs.
It is 80% genetic.
That is why you have whole tribes in South America where not one person has ever been fat.
That is why you have whole towns in Melanesia with 1000’s of people where not one person is fat.
There are fat people in the cities of Solomon Islands. In the study I read, the only man who was fat was one who had gone off to the city for a while and ate salt and processed, packaged food. Do you realize that if you did a genetic study of the fatties in Melanesia, you would find that wonderful 80% “genetic” link you guys are shouting about?
That is why the fatness and obesity rate has exploded in the US and much of the rest of the world. Because it’s 80% genetic!
I do not believe that fatsos act just like the rest of us. Ever known a blimp who ate like a bird? Me either.
I dunno about you, but I have never seen a fat person who wasn’t stuffing their face all the time with lousy food. They are always in restaurants. Always going out to eat. If you go to a restaurant, look around at all the fat people. Those people are fat because fat people like to eat out all the time and restaurant food is fattening. Fat people love to eat. Have you ever noticed that?
I do not like the Manosphere/PUAsphere going on a jihad against fatties. It’s seemly and just not right. I do not date fat women myself, but I do not hate them. On the other hand, I don’t really hang out with them too much either.
Personally, I am overweight by the charts at 179, and my weight hovers around 183. For the life of me, I have no idea how to take it off. I have had women come stay with me here and they say, “You never eat! You only eat one meal a day, and even that is not much!” So I really doubt if I overeat, you know. It’s gotten a whole lot harder to take off weight as I have gotten older, I must say.
