re: Cosmopolitan with new cover saying “This Is Healthy”

NEW YORK, NY—Yass, slay, queens -- dead queens, that is! Cosmopolitan Magazine is promoting body positivity with the first-ever series of corpse cover models. The issues feature interviews with and profiles on a dozen dead girls who show how they too can be healthy despite being completely dead.
quote:
The magazine is hopeful that the issues will raise awareness of women who aren't traditionally alive, but can still be healthy and active in their own, "deader" kind of way. Cosmo quickly pulled the issues from store shelves and issued an apology, however, when it was pointed out that all the decaying corpses and skeletons were white.

It’s so easy to lose weight especially when you’re that fat.
It is if you learn about nutrition and lay off the fast food/convenience store diet.
But you know that's cultural imperialism at work.

If that's healthy, then my Drs. office is full of healthy women all sitting behind their desks testing the durability of their chairs.

We'll all be paying her social security disability when she has foot amputated due to diabetus.

Just a straight up "NS" tag would be appropriate.

From Paul Carter:
quote:
"Most of the US is Obese. Most of the US isn’t even healthy. Obesity is in fact a chronic/pre existing condition.
We have at least 70 million obese Adult Americans. Obese patients are almost always sicker and harder to care for. Operating is harder - patient positioning, anatomy is not textbook at all etc. Taking care of an obese patient on a vent, everything I said x100. We have some potential nightmares ahead of us."
---------------------------------------------------
In case you missed that, it's from a doctor on my friends list, who is a urologist, but because of being short staffed, is being called to help with this pandemic.
I REALLY hope after this has cleared that...
- We stop promoting body positivity
- We stop promoting plus sized anything, because we all know you're not big boned
- We stop allowing people to say we're "fat shaming" when we talk about obesity
- We stop allowing social justice warriors to have a voice in this when it affects all of us in some way...LIKE RIGHT frickING NOW.
-We wake the frick up that obesity is a burden on the entire health care system
- We wake the frick up that it's connected to all of the pathologies that are killing people in Italy and that the world's leading expert on infectious disease says it will be one of the biggest factors in American deaths and Covid-19
- We wake up the frick up and change something, anything, EVERYTHING different than what we've been doing so that we aren't the fattest f'n nation in the world.
It's pathetic.
Body positivity has never f'n once...
- Lowered blood pressure
- Improved cholesterol
- Improved health markers
- Lowered chronic inflammation
- Cured diabetes
But...LOSING WEIGHT CAN AND HAS BEEN SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TO DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS.
If you're not going to be part of the solution, then stop being part of the problem.
And body positivity is part of the problem.
SJW's are part of the problem.
If this post hurt your feelings, or you are offended by it, YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
Running away from this message, unfriending me, ignoring the fact that you "don't have poor health right now" is all a part of ignorant rationalization.
If you are overweight/obese, it has been PROVEN through longitudinal studies that you WILL have more health problems than those closer to ideal BMI.
You can get mad, but it doesn't change the facts.
It doesn't change the science.
It doesn't remove the problem that right now, this will get worse before it gets better because we're the fattest nation on the planet. And people need to stop tap dancing around it because you don't like the words "fat" and "obese".
I don't like the words "death" "mortality rate" "ICU" "pandemic".
If there was ever going to be something that would create a paradigm shift in this country, as far as fitness goes, if this doesn't do it...we're hopeless.

From Mark Rippetoe:
quote:
To a great extent, the health problems experienced by the members of the ridiculous culture in which we live are self-inflicted. They are result of the reluctance of the bulk of the population to do anything that is either physically hard or something that they don’t want to do. People seem to have acquired the idea that they have the inalienable right to stroll through life without having sweated, picked up anything heavy, worked hard, or eaten less than they wanted at every meal. This approach is, of course, wrong. And it has resulted in a lot of expensive, unattractive, and entirely preventable problems amongst people who seem puzzled about why things aren’t going well.
Eating to obtain a positive result as opposed to mindlessly feeding yourself to satiety requires discipline, although not as much as the last three reps of the set of twenty squats.
And if you can’t make yourself stay away from the fourth piece of chicken, you’re never going to do the set of twenty anyway. Supper might be a good place to practice setting easy little goals for yourself that require some discipline to accomplish, so you can get in the habit of being in better control of your behavior.

It ain’t just a weight, it is the frame you stretch it over.
Precisely. Im at 6'2" 220 in size 34 pants.
A buddy is 6'2" 250 in size 40 pants.
There's plenty of factors that play in and I'm all for not running everything off the scale, but God damn, Cosmo.

I stole that from somewhere, but it's accurate.

It is a fricking nightmare already. COVID has slammed us with giant 250lb+ patients and doing the simplest of tasks is an undertaking. You simple cannot take care of these patients properly.

Gravy agrees with this.

yep. and the thing is, it’s just going to morph into a lot of lonely adults. very few people are going to want to marry the beast on that cover. these chicks will just chase desperate dudes on dating apps for quick scores and eventually get knocked up, have a kid or two and be resentful at men and society their whole life very few people will want to marry guys who are morbidly obese. these dudes will just sit around and watch porn and throw money at onlyfans chicks and grow up resentful at women. just not a good trend at all
As a mid 30’s single guy, I can say that you nailed this. It’s being normalized under the guise of “curvy”. Chicks think that saying they’re “thicker than a Snicker” is cute and a turn on.

Believe in science MF!

I have no problems with fatties killing themselves
But they should not receive taxpayer funds for healthcare related to weight and there should be a private insurance provider that is allowed to disallow them
