I’m delighted to see you say “fat“ instead of “obese“ or “overweight.” Today’s war against reality must stop, and this partly involves speaking only the unvarnished truth. FAT, yes. Offended? I just don’t care.
I do not stigmatize fat people. But I do not care if other people do stigmatize them. Stigmata builds humility and may even inspire self-help. (Unlike that svelt, wise Latinex (achoo!) AOC, I think that fat people can lift themselves by their bootstraps.) Also, b/c I'm both short and a lawyer, I have heartily enjoyed a lifetime of short people and lawyer jokes, including one recently from a devoted client who introduced my speech with the words, "Ladies and gentleman, I give you a short joke of a lawyer."
Furthemore, I do not stigmatize fat people b/c I very much like almost all of the fat people I've known, from my law school classmate/friend (who must by now weigh 450 pounds, judging from my recent observation of his labored breathing while he leaned on his grocery cart as we chatted in the Safeway,) to Oliver Hardy, Lou Costello, Jackie Gleason and Minnesota Fats, John Candy, John Belushi, Chris Farley, Lawrence Eagleberger, Refigerator Perry, and Kathleen Turner (God Bless her for enduring long-suffering.) However, I do not like abusive fat people or fatties who seek victim status, like (just for example) the sociopathetic Treacy Abrams and Hillary Clinton and the evil Jerrold Nadler, but I stigmatize them, not b/c they're fat, but rather, b/c they're of the DemocRat species, which brings with it rodentine ( Adv., pertaining to or describing the rodent-like behaviors of social outcasts and the lower echelon leeching off their superiors.) plague, an epidemic of socio-pathology which sickens or devours that which nourishes, replaces it with co-morbidity, and leaves wreckage and death in its wake.
Camus' The Plague is an allegorical tale of the DemocRat disease.

Haha!

The stigmas against both fatties and sodomites must be restored.
Nature (the journal) says the lady is "focusing on maize (corn)". She probably is.
There are some overweight people in my family. They know it's bad, they are openly teased, they take this with good humour, and that's about it.
