Something to consider, it's not just being overweight that brings negative attention from some people, it's being anything different that society perceives as not the norm.

If you're in a wheelchair, people stare. If you wear a turbin in the United States, people stare. If you're African-American and live in a small rural town, people stare.....and not only do these people stare, they may make comments, slurs, or even give them a hard time.

I completely agree with what you've said, but I think it's one of the big flaws of society, how judgmental people are of those who aren't like them.
Yeah, I learned my lesson two days ago with laxatives, with an emergency trip to the hospital with a hole in my intestines XD

I'm just so desperate -_-;;
