Obese Shoppers Say Clerks Not Helpful

Yahoo! News - Obese Shoppers Say Clerks Not Helpful

Yikes...Another study and does this one have a problem. The research done over a five year span suggests that fat white women are being subtly discriminated against. Subtle discrimination consists of, "less eye contact, more rudeness, hostility and unfriendliness." (If this is the case I've been subtly discriminated against on many dates.) Upon further reading these studies were done not in the wide grazing areas of huge department stores but rather in smaller stores. OK, here's the problem. You stuff a large lipid lady into a wee bit of a store and of course the clerks are going to be rude! With every turn around and bend over weighty white women of much avoirdupois are knocking over stock that the diligent clerk previously set out. Next time you want to save five years of research, give me a call..

The story finishes with psychology professor Chris Crandall stating, "To reduce anti-fat prejudice, we have to tell people how much the problem is due to genetics and physiology and how it has less to do with willpower."

Uh-huh. Take the responsibility away from the corpulent and tell them, "it ain't your fault." It's a simple mathematical progression. Take in less than you burn off and you will lose weight.

Start shopping for a treadmill, fat white ladies.
