Would it better to just say tub of lard? Maybe fat ass? I guess Your Momma is SOOOO Fat jokes are out too! Or, maybe we need spoon and fork control? And maybe ban high-capacity plates and bowls? HMMMMMMM
Calling the fattest category of people ‘morbidly’ obese is offensive, woke researchers said today.
And they urged doctors and scientists to stop referring to unsuccessful attempts to lose weight as ‘failures’.
Terms used moving forward should include ‘ineffective’ or ‘insufficient’ weight loss, or even ‘secondary weight regain’.
Joe Nadglowski, president of the Obesity Action Coalition, said: ‘The old expression “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” doesn’t apply for those living with obesity.’
I agree doctors should be sensitive, although sometimes a doctor talking very straight to you can be a life saver. But this business of striking words from our lexicon? NOPE!
“Morbidly Obese” has been replaced by the more politically correct term, “Oh…they so STACEY ABRAMS.” 🤣
