        Exactly so we should be personally accountable to ourselves and externally sympathetic as well as follow known best practices like being encouraging to fat people seeking weight loss rather than encouraging fat people to associate their weight with shame in their body.

        I keep myself skinny and muscular. But I’m sympathetic to people who fail to do so. I’d much rather be an annoying prophet of cycling and home cooked vegetarian meals than the bitch who tells people to feel bad about their body. Their bodies are great, they just aren’t in the best condition at the moment. People tend not to take care of things they have but are ashamed of, even if they’d be proud of it were it better cared for.
