I know several overweight women who always complain about how they are always discriminated against by skinny people. They say they are beautiful and love themselves the way they are even though clearly they are overweight and not healthy.

That's not really bragging...they're just saying they are happy with their body and who they are which is great. Let people be what they want to be. Society has an obsession with being skinny and critiquing anyone who doesn't fit the mold of 'normal'. It's nice to see women who are a bit bigger happy with who they are- after all it's their body.

- That's not really bragging, that's just saying that they aren't going to be one of those people that hate themselves to death just cause they aren't skinny.

- I don't think they are bragging. I think they have come to terms with the fact that they are heavy and still love themselves. it sounds like you are the one with the problem of not accepting them for who they are. Live and let live. peace
- Im big. But I hate it. Im trying to lose weight
- If they're bragging about it, it could be a self defense mechanism so they don't feel like complete crap all the time knowing that people don't like them being overweight. Everyone wants to fit in and be desired, it's hard living otherwise.
If they don't actually brag about it, they could simply be happy with who they are. Some people don't have problems being over-weight.
There are likely people who actually like being over-weight and who still yet brag about it.
It's a big world. Takes all kinds.
For the record, being overweight doesn't necessarily make you unhealthy. Some people are over-weight because they don't exercise and eat poorly; these people would be unhealthy and you can usually spot. Some people still exercise and eat healthily, but also eat more calories than they take in. Body builders would be a good example. Olympic weight lifters and other competitive weight lifters can often be hefty. Fat is storage for the body to use calories for later. It doesn't mean the body isn't conditioned and the heart healthy. - This is what women mean when they say they can't win.
Don't be too skinny.
Don't be too fat.
Ew, you're anorexic? Get help you idiot.
Ew, you're overweight? Run some laps fatty!
Don't brag about being skinny, it's rude and hurtful to fat girls.
Don't brag about being fat because you should be ashamed of yourself!
