(or, to clarify, the thing that interests me most about that, is even though obesity is the most pervasive, many people still understand it the least. - TFox Nov 17, 07:34 19

  - And the parallels seem obvious to me: genetics can make some dudes jam dudes and some dudes jam chicks... - TFox Nov 17, 07:40 17

      - i'm saying that the assumption that obese people are "at fault" or "not trying" is flawed. - TFox Nov 17, 07:48 14
        
        a better comparison is mental health, IMO -- nm - Roger More Nov 17, 08:02 1

        a) i don't think we really understand the "great costs" of obesity as it's defined. morbid obesity, yes. i think normal obesity definitions - TFox Nov 17, 08:03 7

        Everyone is inclined to eat, but not everyone is obese -- nm - Roger More Nov 17, 08:05 3
        
        making my point. -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 08:06 2
        
        Then I think you and Jack are... agreeing? -- nm - Roger More Nov 17, 08:12 1
        
        mostly, yes. i know it isn't a 100% perfect analogy, but what is, really? -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 08:13
        
        but that's not true for every obese person. Plenty of people are obese because they eat too much and don't exercise. - Elf Andie Nov 17, 07:52 2
        
        Plenty of people are not obese despite eating too much and not exercising as well. - TFox Nov 17, 07:59 1
        
        If we're judging solely on eating habits, I should probably be dead. -- nm - znufrii Nov 17, 08:03
    - (superiority of some of those, not everyone) -- nm - TFox Nov 17, 07:40
