What the hell are you talking about?

I support gay rights because I believe everyone should be treated equally, regardless of sexual orientation or gender recognition. What’s that got to do with calling someone stupid for thinking a slim body is “too fat”?

If a male/female/gay/bisexual/straight/trans/ANY person said this person was “too fat”, I’d say the same thing to them. I couldn’t give a fuck what their orientation is, they’re wrong regardless. That’s entirely different to someone having a preference in height, hair colour, or anything that’s physically pleasing to them. Calling someone “too fat” when they’d be borderline malnourished if they lost weight is stupid… and that’s the point I made.

And I never said anything about you having a mental disorder… my point was that some people DO have genuine mental/eating disorders and DO deserve to be defended for thinking such things, because you can’t blame them for being sick. But in this case, when the person does not have a disorder, the only conclusion is blatant ignorance. The woman in that photo is by no stretch of the imagination “too fat” - and that’s all I said.

And I’ll also make the point that I never “reblogged” you, so I’ll thank you to stop saying I did. I had no interest in having a discussion with you about it or singling you out for scrutiny (you’ve done that yourself now). I made sure I instead made my own original post on my own blog, with no mention of you, because I simply wanted to share my horror at how some people can call women like that “too fat” with the people who follow my blog, because I knew they would no doubt agree with me.

Now… I ignored your message yesterday because, like I said, I had no interest in “having a go” at you… but since you have persisted with new messages, I’ve given my one reply on the topic today. Let that be the end of it. 

I’m not “reblogging” you. I’m not commenting on your shit. I’m not leaving whiny messages in your ask box. I left you alone, and I ask you do the same.
