“The hatred and incitement to hatred against the thick makes us ill,”

“Debater: Get the look in store if you like thick buy chips”

“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”

“the DEBATE. I am one of those people who daily share with you my everyday life on social media. I post selfies where I think I am good looking, the pictures where I’m lifting heavy, movies, where I bathed, and much more. Therefore, I’m considered to be a huge health hazard. “

“it Sounds weird? Yes, it’s probably because I forgot to mention that I am also thick. There are few things that provoke as much as a thick woman who refuses to cover themselves. I show more than happy to up wobbly thighs, cellulite and a belly that is far from flat. “

“Sometimes the claims I to the and with something so shocking that you are good enough as you are, and that you are not a bad person just because your body does not meet society’s ideal.”

“It is your kroppshets and the great hatred against the thick which is the major human health hazard assessment”

“Some might wonder how this can be so outrageous. Well, it is so that there are many out there who are convinced that I am in and with this encourages others to become thick. They think that I am dealing with – something that is often called ‘ kroppsaktivism” because it apparently is radically to show his body when you are not narrow – means that my followers will stop caring about health. They will eat only junk food and stop exercising. That it will simply lead to a large degeneracy of public health. “

“I’m claiming the exact opposite. It is your kroppshets and the great hatred against the thick that is the big hazards to human health, and what I am trying to do is to discourage the extremely dangerous effects this leads to.”

“That stigmatizing the overweight is not the solution to the problems with more and more people are becoming overweight”

“Now it is not that I going with that being overweight means a higher risk for many diseases. Believe me, all that is thick is aware of it because we hear it all the time, for example every time we visit the clinic. “

“That stigmatizing the overweight is, however, no solution to the problems with more and more people becoming overweight. On the contrary, there are good reasons to believe that it leads to the opposite.”

“Research shows, for example that people are subjected to so-called ”fat shaming” – that is to say, discrimination and bullying because of being overweight – not just go up more in weight than those who do not.”

“They also have a greater risk of many different diseases and to die prematurely (for example, a study from the year 2015 published in the scientific journal Psychological Science).”

“There can be many reasons for this. I often talk with the obese, who do not dare to work out at the gym, because they feel that they are utstirrade for they are thick. Many also say that they refrain from visiting the health center because the health care solution will always be to lose weight, even if it is about a broken foot or tonsillitis.”

“It is looking in the shop if you like thick happen to do something as bold as buying chips”

“And no, this is not what we imagine. My excess weight is due to a brain tumor that is surgically removed when I was 17 years old. The tumor sitting on the pituitary gland and meant I overnight lost all hormone production and at the same time, became totally dependent on drugs, such as cortisone. “

“After that the whole of my life been underweight, I was over the course of a few months the overweight, and it took not long before I discovered that I was treated in a completely different way. “

“It is looking in the shop if you like thick happen to do something as bold as buying chips, to a feeling of exclusion when even the largest size in the klädbutiken fit and, not least, the direct insults and gliringarna.”

“But it is not required much to counter this. Every day I receive messages from women who tell me they at last dared to visit a gym, that for the first time in ten years appeared in a bikini on the beach and that they dared to seek a new job they have not had the confidence for before. And the only thing I have done is to show that a thick body also has the right to appear and take the place in our society.”

“no. Being overweight is not healthy. But mental ill health, social exclusion and unemployment are also huge health risks, and that is exactly what smalhetsfixering and kroppshets leads to. “

“Therefore, it should be in everyone’s interest to create a more tolerant society, where we do not point out a type of the body as the ”good” and one as ”bad”. “

“Where all can feel welcomed at gyms and feel that they are represented on tv and in magazines. For it is something that can lead to a real hälsorevolution.”
