which is worst? Being look down as a fat person or a skinny one?

I don't really know which is worse, but as a very skinny person it certainly feels like its worse to be us at times.  The reason I say that is because with really fat people, other people will snicker and gossip but will never actually tell the person "wow you are so fat," like they will with a very skinny person.  I used to be very self conscious about how thin I was, so comments like "you are so skinny" and "you are so tiny" and "you look like i could break you" were very painful and made me feel horrible.  It would also imply that my friends thought I had an eating disorder, which also really distressed me.  And what's worse is that you can't really diet or do anything to gain weight if you are naturally thin.\n\nThat said, I can't imagine that it would be easy to weigh alot either.  Especially considering the health risks--obesity, diabetes, heart disease, etc.  And when you add those up to the stares and comments it's probably equally ask crappy as being looked down upon for being thin.

NO. In fact, you're probably too skinny. You should NEVER think you're overweight because of what you see in the media/what other people say. You are YOURSELF and you should be comfortable with what you look like!

I'm skinny and I love'em plump. I seldom look on the outside unless they are pigs. (IE poor hygene)..true beauty comes from with in.

I'd have to go with NO SEX, NO RELATIONSHIP. And I say this only because I am a loner more than anything. I do look at beauty as being skin deep, so it isn't so much the other person being really really fat.

Yes. You shouldn't hate yourself for being fat, short, tall or anything similar to these things. If you are not comfortable with the weight that you currently carry, then do something about it. Diet and exercise will help you lose the amount of weight that you would like. If you don't want to lose the weight, then just be satisfied with your decision. The only reasons that anyone should be concerned about their weight is the effect it has on them and others. Your health is important and not putting a burden on society if your weight becomes an issue. Hollywood is not correct. Looking like you just got out of a concentration camp is not sexy, healthy or appealing.

I think that they are.  Guys who are fat is the norm for us (USA).  I mean I work with several HUGE men.  But I also work with a few HUGE women.  Who gets the most sh*t about being overweight?  The woman.  Most people think that a pretty girl is a skinny girl.  I'm overweight but not grossly so.  I hate feeling the ugly one when I happen to be standing next to a skinny girl and a guy checks her out and ignores me.  But hey I don't really hvae to worry about it.  I have a loving guy in my life who loves me for ME.

Ignorance. Plain and simple. \n\nSome people just feel so bad about themselves, that it makes them feel better to put others down. They think it makes them look cool.\n\nSome day, when they themselves have gained some weight, or they have kids and little Johnny or Jane comes home crying cause some other kid called them 'fatty', maybe then they will understand how hurtful 1 word can be.

It's a little hard for someone to not know that they are fat.  It is pointed out to them everytime they are shopping for clothes, looking in the mirror, or standing on a scale.\n\nI think you need to check yourself.  How a person looks is no reason to ridicule them.  If you hate her... fine, as long as you hate her for the right reasons.  Being overweight isn't one of them.\n\nYou need to put yourself into other people's shoes... gain some sense of empathy.  If you had a body feature that you were ashamed of (like the shape of your nose), would you want people commenting on it to you?  Would you want to be teased about it?

not everyone is, you probably just feel that way. I was skinny all my life till about 2 years ago, and it doesn't bother me. If it bothers other people i don't care, they are not involved in my life and know nothing about me. You shouldn't worry about what other people say.

I was a wee skinny thing when a bit younger. What I eat has very little relation to my weight. However, I lose weight dramatically if I'm stressed or ill. So my advice to you is to find ways to be more contented - like a cat, you'll get smug and plump when happy with your lot. Sort out any problems that are lurking, make sure work/school makes you happy, find a wonderful partner to love and spoil you - and just be content that you have a figure so many would kill for. I know it's hard to be skinny when everyone is jealous and feels they can comment on it, but be happy with the way you are, dress to impress, and smile 3times more than you do - it really works to make you feel better!\nBest of luck x
