Santa Claus's Dastardly Dilemma

[MostBoringManInTheWorld]

Should Old Saint Nick embrace body positivity and accept his morbid obesity?

Or should he be a better role model for his fans all over the world and embrace health and fitness and hit the gym and get in better shape?

Is he being naughty or nice?

He is alright

He only looks fat because of that wide cloak …

St. Nicholas is a Saint.

Santa Claus is a fictional character.

Nobody cares what you believe about the health of either.

In most of the iconic depictions, St. Nicholas is nothing that can be described as "morbidly obese".

Make up your mind. Are you talking about Santa Claus or St. Nicholas?

Two entirely different entities.

He seems to get a lot of work done in a short time so he must be quite healthy in order to accomplish that, despite how many cookies he eats and being obese. The guy is also immortal so he must be doing something right.

The fat man image was created when obesity was rare, a sign of wealth and leisure. Now obesity is a common sight at local grocery stores. Food will become much more expensive, but many industrial chemicals and food additives that cause obesity will remain in our environment for centuries.
