Weighty Matters

I chalk this up to pure self-centredness.
Wow. That’s a nine on the irony meter.

Avant-garde, serial activist, political, fat model, and vegan baker extraordinaire.
So she’s a fat vegan? How does that work?

“Wow. That’s a nine on the irony meter.”
My meter broke long ago..!

“I weigh almost 300lbs and I have anorexia.”
A 300lb anorexic vegan?

“So she’s a fat vegan? How does that work?”
Lots of carbs.

This appears to be a recurring theme with this self-obsessed nutter – from July:

I weigh almost 300lbs and I have anorexia. Technically it’s designated as atypical anorexia because I, obviously, don’t meet the weight requirements for the more commonly known form of anorexia which requires a low body weight. I have fat anorexia, or, the type of anorexia that you have when you either don’t lose weight or don’t lose as much weight as it would take to gain an anorexia diagnosis.

Actually it is “atypical” anorexia because it doesn’t meet any known actual medical definition of anorexia, none of which include being fat, but all of which include being significantly underweight. After xer revelation of a new disease, xye goes on in a rambling screed:

I was popular as a thin girl and the punchline and punching bag as the fat girl. This is what drove me to restrictive eating which, soon after, turned into anorexia.

Not to be excessively cynical, but evidently the eating wasn’t exactly “restrictive”, unless the restriction was from 12,000 calories/day to a mere 6,000, or she wouldn’t be 300 lbs (18 furlongs in British measurement). However…

Everyday Feminism published THIS article on fatphobia in eating disorder communities…
Let’s be honest, you don’t get to recover on my back, on my life. Fat people are excluded from every eating disorder conversation, recovery program, and resource for ED patients. We’re almost always excluded from ED recovery blogs or posts or tumblr memes. Even the picture that I found for my own facebook ED group for fat people doesn’t have any body that looks like mine, is as fat or rolly as mine. Being able to get treatment and help and find resources for your eating disorder is a part of thin privilege because when I talked about my eating disorder I was congratulated! Thin privilege is having people recognize and be horrified at the way you’re harming yourself instead of wondering what you did so they can do it too. Thin privilege is surviving an eating disorder because fat people end up dead before anyone says something was wrong and, even then, admitting that what fat people do in the name of thinness is fucked up is rarely recognized.
Let me tell you something, you aren’t entitled to your recovery when it costs me my life. When you’re stepping me and people like me to climb that mountain isn’t recovery, it’s oppression. You aren’t entitled to the resources that we’re not allowed to have.

WTF ? On the one hand, xyr claims to be proud of being the size of a piano, but on the other is pissed off because someone else lost weight, and that person is oppressing xyr because xye is stupid enough to think there is only a finite amount of phentermine or non-invasive bariatric surgery to go around ?

I chalk this up to pure self-centredness.
Is there any action a person can take to protect or advance his own health which is not self-centered? Must I say a mea culpa every time I take my blood pressure medicine on the off-chance I’m making someone else with cardiovascular issues feel uncomfortable?
Let me tell you something, you aren’t entitled to your recovery when it costs me my life.
How does my eating less and exercising prevent you from, oh say, eating less and exercising?

“… her modelling portfolio, can be found at Fat Girl Posing.”
Er… Not today, thank you.

I think it’s the “Broken porcelain doll” tat on her face that makes her look.

Oh no. I did it. My morbid curiosity got the better of me and I clicked her bloglink.
Oh FFS. She’s mental, mental, chicken oriental.
She is irredeemably fucked up. The facial tattoo is beyond self harm and into a new zone inhabited by fellow freaks such as the 100+ piercing club. As for the naked pics – for the love of god why?
But why the fuck aren’t these people being medicated and treated? Does this go back to the mass closings of mental health clinics / asylums in the 70’s / 80’s?

The facial tattoo
I think it’s make-up.

The facial tattoo is beyond self harm and into a new zone inhabited by fellow freaks such as the 100+ piercing club.
For what it is worth, having also been a victim of my own curiosity, I believe the tattoo is merely paint as zyr has sported other facial themes in the past.
As for the naked pics – for the love of god why?
You are just morbidlyobeseophobic and showing your low avoirdupois privilege .
But why the fuck aren’t these people being medicated and treated? Does this go back to the mass closings of mental health clinics / asylums in the 70’s / 80’s?
In order for one to become treated one has to accept that one has a problem and seek treatment; this one meets diagnostic criteria that xye suffers from a somatiform delusion that zyr morbid obesity is the result of the oxymoronic and non-existent “fat anorexia”. Zye believes zyts size is thus not only “normal” for zyr (ignore the WTF Do You Eat which is nigh nothing but sweets), but must be accepted. Any suggestion that she seek treatment, as can be seen, is met with anger. In addition, she has, just as Bruce Jenner and that ilk does, a cheer leading squad shouting from the rafters that whatever you believe yourself to be is a) what you are, and b) normal.

The comments following the article are a goldmine. Note the implication that “body acceptance” entails scorning as traitors people who would feel more comfortable a size or two smaller and who change their behaviour accordingly. Apparently, wishing to lose weight is being “body negative” and a symptom of “internalised fat hatred.” And doing something about one’s weight – eating less, moving more (or in extremis, having surgery) – is supposedly on a par with being “physically abusive.”

Note the implication that “body acceptance” entails scorning as traitors people who would feel more comfortable a size or two smaller and who change their behaviour accordingly.
The fact of the matter is, for all the “fat positive” and “I’m happy being me” talk, they’re not serious. They know they have a problem; they know they cannot solve it themselves; they know they have some internal issues which prevent them from doing the most basic things to maintain their health. They cannot abide those who do seek help, because it reinforces their own subconscious view of themselves as abnormal. Imagine the reaction if this person had crappy dentition and was railing about the injustice and hatred of those who brush their teeth and floss every day.

“I believe it’s called projection.”
Would there be any advantage to mandatory students’ pre-university exposure to Introductory Psychology and Personality Disorders, or would that actually make things even worse?

And here’s a reply by Sharon, Heather’s excommunicated former friend.
Note Heather’s claim that “when a fat person decides that being thin is better than being fat [i.e., better for them] and actively tries to change their bodies [sic], it makes a statement about all fat people and it makes a social statement.” Heather goes on to complain about being “triggered” by Sharon’s “fatphobic” decision. “Intentional weight loss goes against everything that I stand for,” says she.
For some reason, the term co-dependent relationship springs to mind.

Well, I suppose we can content ourselves with the old adage that life is like a box of chocolates. It doesn’t last as long for fat people.

Much appreciated.

My teenage daughter is showing signs of the dreaded SJW affliction. I often point to this site when she says “I don’t believe that”. It’s not a cure, but it keeps it in remission.

Awesome.

One word: Socrates

says debate is “a privileged exercise” and “makes no strategic sense”.
Blimey.
The tweet immediately below is telling and roughly translates as, “If you don’t already concede my claims and assume a deferential position, I refuse to debate you.” Apparently, “the very structure of a debate” – i.e., facts and logic and such – “is designed around what is easiest for the privileged and most difficult for the marginalised.” To be fair, you can see the disadvantage for someone who seems to rely heavily on swearing, paranoia and coughed-up boilerplate (much of which is geared to excusing why nothing she says has to be justified or should ever be contested).
“Debate is fuckshit,” says the self-described “unemployable anti-capitalist.”

This girl seems to think the world revolves around her. Given she’s 300lb and consequent gravitational pull, it probably does.

Sorry here be link.

What is it about our societies which creates these people in such numbers?
For decades we’ve been actively creating and encouraging such thinking in our schools and universities. Which if it was being done mostly by people using their own money to do so would make this a more pertinent question. However much of the teaching and encouraging of such BS is done with tax dollars. This kind of stupidity is generally purged by natural forces. What we are dealing with here is synthetic stupidity.

This woman doesn’t consider the possibility that her friend didn’t take steps to lose weight out of hate, but out of love of life.
Or perhaps she did, and didn’t like what that said about her.

“They seem to be peculiar to western-European, or at least Anglo-Saxon societies. What is it about our societies which creates these people in such numbers?”
Well the internet has given losers the ability to find other losers and jointly reassure each other when they project their bullshit onto others that they’re righteous.
However the hard left, eg UAF, SWP etc have been doing this for decades, it just the internet makes them seem louder.
Also now the state indulges their bullshit, instead of telling them to have a wash and get a fucking job.
