http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1730150,00.html Friday, Apr. 11, 2008 The Obese Feel More Discrimination By Alice Park As obesity rates continue to rise in the U.S., so might our acceptance of those who are overweight. But a new study from Yale University suggests the converse trend: rather than feeling tolerance in our society, the overweight and obese say they feel more heavily discriminated against now than they did a decade ago. Led by Tatiana Andreyeva, a postdoctoral research associate at Yale's Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity, a team of researchers questioned 1,100 subjects, aged 35 to 74, twice over a 10-year span (once between 1995 and 1996, and again between 2004 and 2006). The respondents answered 11 questions about whether they had been discriminated against in the context of common life experiences including applying to college or for a scholarship, renting or buying a home in a neighborhood they desired, applying for a bank loan or dealing with police. Participants answered nine additional questions about everyday experiences, such as how they were treated in restaurants, and whether they had encountered name-calling, harassment or threats. The subjects were asked to indicate the reasons they felt they had been discriminated against (facing police harassment, for example, or being denied bank loans), whether it was because of age, gender, race, height or weight, physical disability, sexual orientation or religion. Between the two survey periods, the rate of discrimination due to height or weight increased from 7% of respondents to 12% of respondents. (The scientists determined separately that the people who reported discrimination due to height or weight were also more likely than other participants to be overweight or obese.) The study is one of the first to track patterns of discrimination based on weight. It's worth noting, however, that the survey relied on people's own perception of discrimination the authors did not require the subjects to document bias in any way. In addition, the authors found that rates of discrimination by age and gender also increased in the same time period, suggesting that several forms of bias or perhaps sensitivity to perceived bias is on the rise overall, not just against the overweight. Nevertheless, the study did track the same population over time, and Andreyeva says that an increase even in people's perceived sense of maltreatment is an important measure of our society's attitudes. In this report, weight ranked third behind age and race as the most common form of prejudice. "If a person perceives he is being discriminated against," Andreyeva says, "it might have significant consequences for his or her health and mental health. Even the perception of discrimination can be important because it is self-perpetuating." And if rates of weight discrimination are indeed on the rise, say the authors, then it's up to society to mandate legal protections for those who are overweight, just as laws protect people from discrimination by race, gender, disability and age.

I wonder which liberal Democrat will pander for the "obese vote". I can see it now: "These are the real consumers, the backbone of our economy, yet they are overlooked and discriminated against. When I'm elected President, I'll create the Department of Personal Trainers to motivate these underappreciated citizens." I can hear this silly speech in my head more with a Hillary voice than with an Obama voice. <grin>

Friday, Apr. 11, 2008 The Obese Feel More Discrimination
And so they should. We are paying the immense cost of their terminal stupidity.
By Alice Park
As obesity rates continue to rise in the U.S., so might our acceptance of those who are overweight.
Nope, anyone with a clue doesnt.
But a new study from Yale University suggests the converse trend: rather than feeling tolerance in our society, the overweight and obese say they feel more heavily discriminated against now than they did a decade ago.
And so they should be.
Led by Tatiana Andreyeva, a postdoctoral research associate at Yale's Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity, a team of researchers questioned 1,100 subjects, aged 35 to 74,
They're 'subjects' now ? Better than objects I spose.
twice over a 10-year span (once between 1995 and 1996, and again between 2004 and 2006).
Proves @$#* all about what was purportedly 'measured'. You clowns havent eliminated the possibility that its the repeat that produced the different result, just because its a repeat.
The respondents answered 11 questions about whether they had been discriminated against in the context of common life experiences - including applying to college or for a scholarship, renting or buying a home in a neighborhood they desired, applying for a bank loan or dealing with police.
And you clowns didnt bother to check whether the CLAIMS about discrimination were real or imagined.
Participants answered nine additional questions about everyday experiences, such as how they were treated in restaurants, and whether they had encountered name-calling, harassment or threats.

The rate of CLAIMS of discrimination did, actually.
(The scientists determined separately that the people who reported discrimination due to height or weight were also more likely than other participants to be overweight or obese.)
Wota packa wanker...
The study is one of the first to track patterns of discrimination based on weight.
No it didnt. It at most purported to 'track' CLAIMS about discrimination, a different matter entirely. It didnt even bother to measure actual discrimination.
It's worth noting, however, that the survey relied on people's own perception of discrimination - the authors did not require the subjects to document bias in any way.
So its completely useless and doesnt do anything like what you claim.
In addition, the authors found that rates of discrimination by age and gender also increased in the same time period,
No it did. It ACTUALLY found an increase in the CLAIMS of discrimination, a different matter entirely.
suggesting that several forms of bias - or perhaps sensitivity to perceived bias - is on the rise overall, not just against the overweight.
Again, its just what those objects CLAIMED.
Nevertheless, the study did track the same population over time,
And didnt bother to check whether it was just the repeating of the questions that produced the result seen.
and Andreyeva says that an increase even in people's perceived sense of maltreatment is an important measure of our society's attitudes.
Wrong again.
In this report, weight ranked third behind age and race as the most common form of prejudice.
Plenty of age discrimination is completely reasonable, stupid. It makes no sense to treat 35 year olds the same as 74 year olds when they are applying for a bank loan or scholarship etc, stupid.
"If a person perceives he is being discriminated against," Andreyeva says, "it might have significant consequences for his or her health and mental health.
It might not too.
Even the perception of discrimination can be important because it is self-perpetuating."
Easy to claim, hell of a lot harder to actually substantiate that claim.
And if rates of weight discrimination are indeed on the rise, say the authors, then it's up to society to mandate legal protections for those who are overweight, just as laws protect people from discrimination by race, gender, disability and age.
Or we can get a clue and realise that there is plenty of discrimination that makes a hell of a lot of sense and thats true in spades with the obese where that is the overwhelming evidence about the quality of what they have between their ears.

Correct for once, at least within the context of your limited statement. But the discussion is not about beasts, it's about people and their right not be discriminated against. I know it can be difficult for the stupid but if you insist on participating, do try and stay with the subject. Ragnar

Yes, its about big fat@$#* beasts. We, the normal people, the majority, do not like big fat@$#* beasts. Its not discrimination. We just don't like 'em. They smell. They sweat too much. They breathe too much. They're ugly. We don't want them working for us or with us. We don't want them living near us. We DAMNED SURE don't want them in the airplane seat next to us. We don't want to share a taxi with one because then the taxi leans to one side and embarasses us! We don't want to be in an elevator with one in case they have some kind of attack and fall on us.

Nevertheless, the study did track the same population over time, and Andreyeva says that an increase even in people's perceived sense of maltreatment is an important measure of our society's attitudes. In this report, weight ranked third behind age and race as the most common form of prejudice. And yet race and age discrimination is illegal. It's sad that the bigots hate people that are different then they are. Different? Bwahahahahhahahahahahaha!!!! Wearing white shoes and belt in November is different. Yes, its about big fat@$#* beasts. We, the normal people, the majority, do not like big fat@$#* beasts.
"We" again. It's revolting how you keep feces stuffed in your pockets. Just more proof that you aren't normal. Its not discrimination. We just don't like
'em. They smell. They sweat too much. They breathe too much. They're ugly. We don't want them working for us or with us. We don't want them living near us. We DAMNED SURE don't want them in the airplane seat next to us. We don't want to share a taxi with one because then the taxi leans to one side and embarasses us! We don't want to be in an elevator with one in case they have some kind of attack and fall on us.- Hide quoted text -
You know what the normal people of this world really don't like?.....Stupid people. We don't want them living near us for fear of fires, explosions and the stigma it places on the neighborhood. We don't want them working for or with us because they are useless, they @$#* up and make everyone look bad. We don't want them flying with us because in case of an in flight emergency they panic like sheep. And we don't want them around us socially because interacting with them causes us to doubt the future of the human race. But despite all this we still can't seem to get rid of the likes of you and your ilk. So we go through life pretending you aren't there and pray constantly that god strikes you sterile. Ragnar

Thank you for not denying that you are a bigot, at least you are aware of your social limitations. So I guess referring to you as a willfully ignorant slob wouldn't be all that big of a surprise to you. Ragnar

Sure. 86% of America believes in God, I believe in God, so I'm normal. 98% of the world is heterosexual, I'm heterosexual, so I'm normal. Anyone of size already knew the hate that most skinny people have, and discrimination is the end result. Big fat beasts know they are not liked or wanted. That's interesting, especially when you consider that 60% of the US population is overweight. I guess there are a lot of friendless unwanted people out there. lol. Overweight" is NOT "obese." Don't try to pretend you're overweight. We already know we could bend you over and show a widescreen HD movie on your ass!
"We" do? do you have proof of that as well? I for one would love to see it.
Sorry, can't see the movie when you're bent over. Maybe we'll bend over another fat@$#* for the rerun and you can see it then...
BTW, who is "we"? Is that the royal "we" or do you have a turd in your pocket?
I don't have your lunch in my pocket. Normal people don't need protection because we're the majority.
Again with the "we" and claims of normalcy. LOL. You might just be a lot of things but "normal" you aren't. You might be normal in weight (not yet verified) but you are obviously of much lower than normal intelligence. But on the up side, you are obliviously much higher on the scale of social ineptitude.
Its not my fault it sucks being you. Its not discrimination. We just don't like 'em. They smell. They sweat too much. They breathe too much. They're ugly. We don't want them working for us or with us. We don't want them living near us. We DAMNED SURE don't want them in the airplane seat next to us.

That's true too.

Its true. So how stupid is it to be a big fat@$#* beast knowing the world hates you for it? VERY stupid.
So we go through life pretending you aren't there and pray constantly that god strikes you sterile.
Too late. 5 children (none of them big fat@$#* beasts), 11 grandkids (none of them big fat@$#* beasts)!

I don't like fat people. I don't have to like fat people. I've never hired a fat person. I made a scene on an airplane once because they tried to sit me next to a big fat@$#* beast who's enormous fat@$#* asscheek HAD ALREADY spread over into MY seat so they gave me FREE First Class tickets. NOBODY would sit next to the big fat@$#* beast! So they made him buy a second ticket for the second half of his ass!! bwahahahahahahhahaha!!!!
So I guess referring to you as a willfully ignorant slob wouldn't be all that big of a surprise to you.
Nothing you big fat@$#* beasts do would surprise me. Well, if you started eating healthy, getting daily exercise, and losing weight THAT WOULD surprise me. Bottom Line: Fat people are mentally ill. NOBODY with pride, honor and dignity would allow themselves to do that to themselves ON PURPOSE. 98% of fat@$#* beasts have a fat@$#* beast problem and a mental illness that got 'em that way. (2% have an actual medical condition.) We will NEVER accept you until you LOSE WEIGHT. We will ALWAYS discriminate against you until you LOSE WEIGHT.
