Plus size lingerie is all very fine, but they've stopped making shoes and socks that fit me since about 2012. I have large feet, 12.5 length, 13.5 width and higher than average vertically (not reflected in sizes - have to see if I can get my feet in). I know there are athletes with big feet - but their stuff is hundreds of $$. I am poor (for NoVa), and Walmart can no longer supply my need.

I have no issue with larger figures, obese ones not so much.

what I have a problem with is the false victim-hood and the cost to the rest of society.

If we can tell anorexic person that their behaviour is not healthy, we can do the same for obese people.

its a cost to airlines

its a cost to the healthcare system

its a cost to the people who refuse to take care of themselves.

Sure there are a minority due to thyroid or some rare situations however most obese people are obese precisely because of a lack of will to change their behaviour.
