Okay. This topic always gets me fired up, even when I'm sick, which I am as I'm writing this.

What's the deal with skinny people bashing bigger people? Don't get me wrong, there are plenty that actually stick up for those being bashed, but why does the bashing happen in the first place?

Like honestly, do the skinny people that make fun of fatter people think they are better than everyone else? Like, even if they weren't picking on bigger people, they'd be making fun of "ugly" people. You know, a person is a person, no matter what colour they are, what size they are, or how attractive or unattractive they are. Bloody hell people, we're all human beings, we aren't perfect like Barbie. Christ if we were, we'd all be made of plastic. What I'm trying to say is, everyone has feelings, and they get hurt easily. Some people don't show it, but the hurt is there. Why do you think there are so many suicides? The stress of school, work and peers/co-workers. For some people, it's all to much.

I think that from now on, people should think about what they are going to say, that way, if it would hurt someone's feelings, the won't or shouldn't say it. Then the world might actually be semi happy.
