Thing is. I get labelled a "fat basher" and "body idealist" because I don't find excessively overweight people attractive. And then they say "But Jack, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes!" To which I have to retort "Beauty is an opinion , dickhead. You can find yourself beautiful, but you can't say 'I am beautiful' as if it's a fact. Because it just fucking isn't . It's an abstract concept." I don't generally give a shit what people look like. But I get pissed off when people use an opinion as a fact. This happens far too much with body image.
