You projecting :jbhmm:

Nobody’s treating her any different than any other performer who’s body is their schtick.

She won’t be the first or last. Everybody had jokes for Luther. If Luther has Twitter he would’ve caught hell back then and logged off the net.

Truthfully. I can’t see reading my own twitter as a celeb. I’m sure if the pope has a account the comments are toxic AF. Take your cape off. The battle’s unwinable
No there's a whole gang of people what wanna get upset at Lizzo and others like them and lecture them about it not being healthy. They see people in the public accepting them and don't like it and judge them all the while propping themselves up on the excuse of "but what about their health." Almost nobody lecturing Lizzo or Ashley Graham or any other like them about their health really cares about that. It really is just the excuse to legitimatize their judgment of others.

If people are gonna lecture Lizzo about poor choices for her health why aren't they also lecturing others about their poor health choices?

People need to keep it real. They're going Lizzo because they look at her and see she's fat and (seemingly) ok with it and going on about her life in a proud way and they don't like it.

I think there is a legit concern about treating obesity as a norm. I’m sure obese people judge (gay, black, etc) but they can’t face scrutiny now?

I'm pretty sure Lizzo gets it because of her brash unapologetic attitude about herself. There's a lot of hate towards obese people.

'Biggest Loser': Bob Harper Weighs in on Jillian Michaels' Lizzo Remarks
Bob Harper had it right.
“The bottomline is this: It’s none of my business to make an observation of her or anyone unless [they’re] asking for my advice or opinion,” Harper told TheWrap on Saturday at the Television Critics Association press tour. “All I know about Lizzo is I never met the woman, I love her music, and I know she can play a mean flute.”

“If you come up to me at the airport or the grocery store, which people do all the time, and go like this, ‘Bob, what do I need to eat today?’ — I’m gonna tell you all day long,” he added. “But if you’re, like, minding your own business at the grocery store with your little buggy and you’ve got, I dunno, frozen pizzas — it is none of my business what you’re doing.”

That's where Michaels fukked up. She went on that interview and attacked Lizzo over her weight. As a distant observer you don't go on a show commenting on other people's situations like that. You're coming from a place of pure ignorance and assumptions. What she should have attacked is the irresponsible comments that interviewer made about celebrating obese body types.

This.

I don't like Lizzo because she a obnoxious unattractive fat bytch. She encourages other women to be unattractive fat bytches. Then these unattractive fat bytches push that body positivity, fatphobia bs, when you as a man say I don't fukk with unattractive fat bytches.

This America, ain't shyt to be proud of for being a unattractive fat bytch. They everywhere. shyt didn't take any hard work, self discipline, or brilliant insight. What they proud of.

Down with unattractive fat women.

You’re in this thread basically talking to yourself at this point. You’re straight up lying to just to push your bullshyt narrative. Take this to twitter, you’ll get a lot more likes from the sheeple.

When you go on TV and make those sort of comments about someone by name unprovoked by them what else do you call that?

My parents raised me if you don't have something positive to say about somebody else keep their name out of your mouth.

What comments are you talking about? She was specifically asked about Lizzo and her response was to question the people who are propping Lizzo up for being obese. Where is the attack on Lizzo in that? She said that the same people celebrating her for flaunting her obesity, won’t be laughing if/when she gets diabetes or suffers some other medical consequence not the line due to her weight. Again, where is the Lizzo attack?

:patrice:For all the people in the thread talking about BMI being a farce ask yourself one thing. How man 300lb 70 year olds do you know? :hubie:

Exactly. Your heart cannot tolerate that excess weight after a certain age. By 45, most people's bodies start to slow down. These morbidly obese people soon gotta face the facts thattheir weight will make them drop dead early.

That’s a pretty big generalization and assumption to say that “nobody cares about that”. I think a lot of people do. The issue to me is criticism coming from people who don’t find her “physically attractive” versus people who criticize her because her weight is unhealthy like Jillian Michaels is doing. The fact is her weight is unhealthy, potentially subjecting her to a variety of deadly diseases. Criticizing her from an attractiveness angle is wrong but from a health angle is very right. Should we start applauding people who smoke a pack of cigarettes a day now?
