Exactly.

Size, color, gender, age, etc.

My general observation has been that being fat doesn't prevent people from being loved, being happy, being active, being productive.

I do believe statistics and reports which show that people who are observed to be fat face discrimination in employment, health care, public accommodations (what about those airplane seats??), and more. Unacknowledged prejudice is the worst.

I like to think this forum does a good job of encouraging people to love themselves and do their best to attain a level of health and comfort that makes life a little (or a lot) better.
