facebooksexism:disneyvillainess said: Can we please tag @bigfatscience for a debunking because this is bullshitI agree that this meme is bullshit. Fat phobic, concern trolling, oppressive bullshit.As the wonderful Marilyn Wann has said, the only thing you can diagnose by looking at a fat person’s body is your own degree of fat phobia. And that holds true here as well. This image is only “amazing” and “shocking” if you believe that fatness in inherently bad and deviant and disgusting. Putting aside those prejudices, this image simply illustrates the natural human phenomenon of size diversity, and there is nothing shocking about that. I doubt this meme was created by a nurse, but if it was, they need some education before they should be allowed to treat any fat patients in the future.You can read more debunking here: Fat people are not your “medical freak show” -- source link
