There are definitely similarities on how negatively people treat people of size and LGBT groups - it's not like homophobes give a drat whether someone actually was born being gay or transgendered.

There are also definitely similarities between how negatively people treat people of size and Nazis. Does that suddenly change your opinion of the situation?

being gay is hard and being fat is hard but being fat and gay as young teenager is one helluva thing that can gently caress you up a lot so there is plenty of merit to talking about being fat and gay, whether or not that lady is accomplishing any of it I dunno tbh I've only ever heard the word 'queering' used in the case of a straight/cis person trying to make it sound like their hetero relationship is challenging heteronormativity because she spanks him sometimes

The weird thing to me is that the medical understanding came first, before cultural saturation. The idea that the medical understanding of the consequences is actually just paranoia caused by a growing moral panic would require time-travelling doctors. That book's synopsis is wrong in the first sentence

If we didn't treat fat people so lovely, then people like her wouldn't have this kind of pulpit to rant about it. Women in particular get treated very poorly for the crime of being Too Fat. The strawman SJW is depicted as a fat, hairy, purple haired woman. The less sexually desirable she is to white, cis het men, the more offensive she is for daring to exist.

And, since I happen to know you're speaking as a white cis het man who happens to not be fat and never have been fat, you have precisely the right kind of lived experience to talk about this stuff with that kind of authoritative voice. Stop caricaturing other groups to make your point, and stop trying to subtly tie your opponents to groups you dislike.

Yeah as a queer person with a degree in women’s studies who is overweight that lady is batshit. Sure, we have issues with size in Western culture. But doing healthy at any size “queering fatness” stuff while you eat a ton of burgers is complete bullshit. 100%.

Sorry guys, that isn't an actual X-Ray of a fat person, but a render of what it might look like: https://www.snopes.com/false-900-pound-man-x-ray/ Here's an actual one tho:

Look, all I know is that when I got fat all my cares melted away, like a happy lady Buddha. You'll make me give up this level of contentment over my dead body. You can take my money, my things and my home, but you can't take my fatness, goddammit! I DRAW THE LINE THERE.
