Dear Readers, You've Been Warned

It's possible all of you will catch The Fat because you're reading the words on a blog typed by a fat woman.

Seriously, science says that Obesity is Socially Contagious. So that means you're gonna get a fat ass pretty soon because you are associated with me, a woman with a fat ass. It makes no difference that you haven't actually met me or spend any time with me. Just knowing a fat person puts you at risk for catching The Fat.

Does it blow anyone else's mind that this shit "scientific" study was federally funded?!? And not to mention, written in the New England Journal of Medicine?!? Kate Harding breaks it down better than I can.

Ah, you gotta love it. Hatred toward fat folks. The last accepted (and loved by all!) form of discrimination.
