    P.s Im not trying to attack you or put your post down it was quite valid its not nice for people to be put down based on their weight i just think that you failed to see that its equally as bad when you use those kind of names your self even if it is against those people who put your friends down

    personally i dont hold allot to words im fine with the word fat i mean i am fat and hey if i ever get thin and someone calls me anorexic i will just brush that off to but some people it can hurt and i think you should be mindful of that especially when in a site like this

    Being FAT is something you do to YOURSELF
    there are other factors, but I blame myself for getting fat
    Anorexia is a SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS
    I'm FAT. like.. I don't understand why people are freaking the hell out
    maybe I'm just not easily offended

    but really... calm down

    actually people could have reasons to weight gain. Thyroid problems is a main factor in that. But we don't understand why you're freaking out so much either.

    your talking about people using the word anorexic and hurtig your friends feelings how do you think it makes people on a weight loss site feel when you use the word FAT in the way you did it was clearly meant as a insult to those people calling your friends anorexic so you clearly think little of overweight people ,,,, i just dont understand how you can be soooo against name calling and then do it yourself within the same post

    it is class-less ):

    I DO NOT think little over overweight people, that's just stupid I've been pverweight my whole life I'm still overweight my best friend is overweight my ENTIRE family is overweight
    It's me SAYING that calling someone anorexic just because they're thinner than you IS NOT RIGHT
    end of story

    But the way you went about saying it was rude and demeaning. You could have come in here been calm, cool, and collected, explained yourself well in a polite way, and gotten a much different response.


    I just think overweight people call skinnier people anorexic becuase they're jealous and in comparison to them they are really really skinny....
    Just because someone is overweight doesn't mean they can call everyone thats thin anorexic. '-'

    No your very right ,I dont deny that at all becuase it is definitely not something you want to be called cuz it doesnt mean a good thing

    HOW THE HELL is me trying to say calling someone anorexic is not a good thing to do especiially if you don't know them

    Rudeness is offensive. Also, being anorexic isn't "bad name" it's not the most insulting thing to call a person. Do you think so very lowly of people with eating disorders that you find the thought of it OFFENSIVE? Interesting fact, we're people, just like you. We have a condition/disease/disorder, but we're people don't, don't make it sound like we have the freaking plague.
    No i do not find the thought of it offensive i was saying that you just shouldnt go around calling people anorexic because it's a seriously illness.. like... what you don't even make sense

    Not using proper English and punctuation doesn't make sense either. You're clearly very upset by this conversation, so you should leave the discussion to the grown ups.

    I typed up a lovely response, explaining myself, but I figured you wouldn't get it the second time around either.

    The short version: Get your head dislodged and learn to use your MFP blog so the rest of us don't have to see your offensive and pointless rantings.

    Proper grammar isn't important in here obviously. :laugh:
