Yes, yes, yes.

My daughter is happy and talented and intelligent. Those who matter see her for how she is. I taught my daughter that anyone who would judge her and then sum her up for how she looks is an asshole. Words and action are all that matter.

The problem with the "healthy" argument is that we are examining two different things Stare. You are looking at what it is to be an animal; how we function physically. We are discussing the positives of being a good person.

What's more, what life as a person who is fat has taught my daughter is to be more tolerant and accepting of people who are different. And she is fiercely loyal to this principal. And frankly, I wouldn't want her any other way. Maybe she will lose the weight one day, she is still young, and maybe she won't, but it's nobody else's fucking business and if you run up against the wrong side of my daughter one day - she'll tear you a new one. I wish more fat people had the self-confidence to stand up for themselves. Some people just need to be put in their place. Hell in a handbasket, indeed

And Mix for the win. Positives for being a fat person? I am kind, considerate, intelligent, funny, well spoken, thoughtful, loving, intense, analytical, and strong person because I was a fat kid growing up. I learned how to survive as a person, not a thing. I wasn't given an easy route to do anything because I was fat and now I'm self-sufficient.
If we are going to play the discrimination game then all "good looking thin people" (what a fucking ignorant and offensive idea) are all soulless douche bags who get by on the fact that they are thin and good looking. They have nothing to say of substance because they have never been in a position to learn something of substance. They end up drifting into meaningless jobs because they have nothing to prove to anyone because no one has ever made them work for anything. They are losers with pretty faces.
That was fun.
In reality, most of the people I've met in my life who are "unconventional" are the most well rounded, interesting people. They hate themselves though. They owe you guys a fruit basket I guess.
