You realize that I was basing the age on the Florida law that the crazies opposed right? The point is to sound obvious, so the younger the age, the more obvious the claim is. These people are trying to indoctrinate kids as young as 3:
NC preschool teacher using LGBT flashcards depicting pregnant man
State Representative Erin Paré and Speaker of the House Tim Moore brought attention to the cards after Paré was emailed by a concerned constituent.
You can't help yourself can you? Do you personally feel attacked by those obvious statements? The statements I made are scientific and moral facts that were considered indisputable by 99.9% of the population up until like a few years ago. The points you made are just political opinions that can be debated with no true "correct" answer. This isn't about left vs right, it's about facts vs feelings.

Come on dude. Stop trying to make out only one side gets super offended by hearing things they don't like. Crazies on both sides.
You're playing into partisan politics, which always brings any conversation down around here.
And you’re acting like a few bell ends whining about chicks with dicks is going to destroy western civilisation. It isn’t.
Climate change will do that

This is cultural in nature; you're the one bringing partisan politics into it for no reason. Saying a man can't get pregnant is not a political statement unless you're a loon, period. I'm sure there are plenty of people on both sides of the political spectrum who agree with that statement. Same goes for my other statements. If you don't see the difference between the statements I posted and the ones you added, then I will consider you to be mentally ill or acting in bad faith, either way if that's the case, then please don't engage with me anymore.

Maybe bored women living in such privilege that they literally don't have any problems so they have to make them up. This happens to men too, though.

I consider belly fat so physically harmful I actually went ahead and freeze blasted the most stubborn belly fat two weeks ago.
Has been the most horribly painful experience in my life, but it had to be done since it was insanely hard to shift it - I was on low carb, IF, no beer, lot of sports, good sleep.
I may post a thread of the whole experience once I get before/afters, will be around 12 weeks for the dead fat to be flushed.

I got lipo when I got my cranioplasty, the doctors used the fat to add protection to my skull. Was not a good experience at all. I had a 8" stick getting up and down my belly button to get the fat.

Honestly the only reason I go to the gym is so I'm strong enough to beat up fatties

Whoa, I thought only celebrities did this when their asses start to sag. Now I’m curious about what that was like

I tell you I have much more respect for C list celebrities now, shit burns.
Based on my research the results are consistently strong if you are generally healthy, but it will take 12 weeks for all the dead cells to be flushed so will report back later

Your fat cells freeze and die before your skin gets damaged. Frozen fat cells die and won’t return, they get metabolised out.
It’s not a method to lose weight and can’t be done if you are obese.

This kind of shit is just online on social media which is populated by fat nerds and lonely people. In real life, most people in this age group below look like this in the u.s
Source, i live in a college town and 90% of the girls look fine as hell. married women and especially married men let themselves go but young people are all into working out and eating well. If they really cared about being fatphobic they would not be doing that.
Even fat or overweight people in my neighborhood all go out for walks just like i do. in real life, no one likes being fat and they do what they can to lose weight.

When i see billboards and media demonising fat phobia, or promoting fat as a healthy lifestyle, it's always women. Where are the men?
It's a little sexist to just show fat women...

That feel when you've lost enough weight to notice how everything you do gets easier and more fun. Even just getting up out of a chair.

I don't understand the extreme obsession with trying to interject politics into everything when there's a banner on here telling us not to. I guess some people just can't help themselves.
I've noticed this in real life conversations about random things, too.
Obesity is not a political issue, its a health issue.

It's so people can feel better about themselves and letting themselves go.
I for one like the 2000 era women standards highlighted in the media eg slim models, fat shaming, diet and exercise culture.
Now you see feminists who think it's acceptable to have armpit, pubic and facial hair. Disgusting.

I am not joking.
A policemen saw a video of an obese women dancing and send to his workmate on a private conversation and laughing at it. I think his workmate felt offended(or disgusted) with his attitude and send the conversation to the woman, who accuse him of fatphobia.

If someone ever tells you they aren't fatphobic, ask them how they'd feel if they woke up tomorrow 500 lbs heavier than they currently are. Everyone's fatphobic. Fatphobia keeps us healthy.

That's why I'm very careful about who I share uncensored jokes with; I only do it with family or very close friends. I don't trust anyone else, don't know who is going to be overly sensitive and try to rat me out.

I am sure fat phobia actually exists. However, 99% of the uses of such a term are incorrect. Just another umbrella term that gets thrown out by people that do not have actual responses or enough brain cells to say anything intelligent.

Fatphobia is going out your way to demean or harass fat people for being fat. You going to the gym doesn't make you fat phobic. Going on twitter to comment mean thing on fat peoples post or playing the tuba behind them is fat phobic. Fatphobia does exist in the media, but as someone whose been slim my whole life I'm not all that sensitive to that plight. So just don't harass them but continue to take care of yourself.

The word phobia has gotten corrupted. In its original, long-standing, and (in my opinion) correct meaning, it's "persistent and excessive fear of" something.
So when people, even in this thread, make blanket claims like "fatphobia does exist," without providing any proof, I just laugh.
Going by the original definition of phobia, do some people have genuine fatphobia? Absolutely. They have persistent and excessive fear of they themselves becoming overly fat/obese, due to the (scientifically irrefutable) health problems being overly fat/obese bring.
But do people have "fatphobia" as in... persistent and excessive fear of fat people? I haven't seen it. If anything, our situation in the United States would prove otherwise: it's very, very socially acceptable to be fat.
