I am fat. I don’t care if you don’t like fat women. I also don’t care if people don’t like me because I am poor, Jewish, an atheist, a libtard, or anything else.
My statement is not harmful. What is harmful are the last few generations who have grown up being socialized to believe everyone must like them.
One cannot mature emotionally if one is not comfortable with the fact that some people might not like one — gor whatever reason.
Essentially, the fact that you responded emotionslly and irrationally to my statement is an indication of your own baggage. That is something you have to deal with.
Also, you need to understand the difference between dislike and not like. I think a lot of people confuse the two. To dislike someone means to have negative emotions towards someone. Not to like someone means the absence of like — one might feel ahsolutely nothing, as in not being attracted to someone.
So I am not attracted to short men. And many people don’t like women like me. I genuinely don’t care because I am comfortable in my own skin.
So, again, I am sorry you feel that voicing some things that are factual are harmful. No, they are not harmful to well-adjusted people. The statements I made could be triggers for people who aren’t comfortable in their own skins.
I understand that.
