New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves

This is a great idea. Something that America should be proud of.
Surely this is something that we can all agree on.

America has an obesity problem, and people are dying needlessly as a result. Why should we be proud to showcase that? We would not, for example, be proud to hold anorexia-beach-days, so why would we be proud to do this?

Accepting people for who they are and where they are in their personal journey through life does not equate to celebrating avoidable health problems.

I think you and New York are way off base on this one.

The family enablers are divided into blood relatives, and the partners. The partners are usually chubby chasers, and they have their own mental issues (fear of abandonment usually)

The husbands of the 600lb ladies on these shows are always very creepy

Yes im not making fun of these people. I think its a good idea. Most of these people have medical conditions that cause this.

The medical condition is open the pie hole and fill it to the brim....
