But then, the truth was never really the point. Thin women don’t tell their fat friends ‘You’re not fat’ because they’re confused about the dictionary definition of the word, or their eyes are broken, or they were raised on planets where size 24 is the average for women. They don’t say it because it’s the truth. They say it because fat does not mean just fat in this culture. It can also mean any or all of the following:

Ugly
Unhealthy
Smelly
Lazy
Ignorant
Undisciplined
Unlovable
Burdensome
Embarrassing
Unfashionable
Mean
Angry
Socially inept
Just plain icky

So when they say ‘You’re not fat,’ what they really mean is ‘You’re not a dozen nasty things I associate with the word fat.’ The size of your body is not what’s in question; a tape measure or a mirror could solve that dispute. What’s in question is your goodness, your lovability, your intelligence, your kindness, your attractiveness. And your friends, not surprisingly, are inclined to believe you get high marks in all those categories. Ergo, you couldn’t possibly be fat.

Probs reblogged this before but it’s worth posting again. I once had a drunken conversation trying to explain this and nobody got it - this says it better than I could!

curvecreation: run-faster-eat-better: I think this image is absolute garbage.   I can’t even put my thoughts into words because of how much this sort of crap ticks me off.  While I’m sure the message behind this is to make healthier choices, whoever made this did a really terrible job.   This is encouraging the stereotypes and stigmas against overweight individuals, by saying they’re living an unhealthy lifestyle/making unhealthy choices.  Then there’s the thinner women, holding her apple ‘cause obviously she makes better choices.   Obviously. I’m sorry but you can eat like crap and be thin, and you can eat healthy and be overweight.  Fricken eating chocolate won’t make you fat and apples won’t make you thin.  flaskjfd;asf  Eating chocolate doesn’t mean you have an unhealthy lifestyle, and eating apples doesn’t mean you’re living a healthy lifestyle. dang it Reblogging for the so true comment! *flips desk*
