I read one thread that was about a company firing workers who smoked at home. This led to some negative comments on fat people. Like most prejudice until we actually know someone we believe all the stereotypical things were hear about a group. I don't think TFPs are any more prejudiced against fat people than the world in general. Unfortunately the majority of us no longer fit into the "ideal" in regards to proper weight. Until the perception that all fat people are pigs and lazy is overcome many people will assume that is true, because that is what they hear. Throw off your ignorance and get to know a fat person. I am one.
