The dangers of obesity are significant, and in some countries abroad, it can actually be illegal!

　　Frequently hanging around in the circle of friends who are overweight, the author can fully feel the deep malice of the world towards fat people.

　　Taking public transportation, overweight people are often discriminated against for taking up more space;

　　Shopping for clothes, stores often don't have sizes for overweight people;

　　If you meet someone you like, a confession can lead to rejection;

　　Walking on the street, people will accuse them of blocking WiFi...

　　There's more, but just when it comes to eating, overweight people are even more indecisive. If they eat too much, others will look down on them and say, "You eat so much, it's your fault you're fat!" If they don't eat, the people around them will frown, wondering how they can still be so fat without eating! Overweight people here almost cry their eyes out)

　　Of course, overweight people in the world receive "treatment" that is not ordinary. There are even more extreme ones!

　　Overweight people receive lower treatment at work than average people

　　A study by Vanderbilt University in the United States found that obesity affects employees' salaries. When a woman is overweight, she is less likely to get a high-paying white-collar job. Another study shows that overweight people earn 4.5% less than normal employees, and their wage growth rate is 6% lower than that of people with normal body weight.

　　Overweight people find it hard to buy plane tickets

　　Samoa Airlines introduced a new rule where tickets are priced based on passengers' weight, ranging from $1 to $4.16 per kilogram, with specific fees depending on the flight. As a result, overweight people pay much more for their tickets than others. Compared to Samoa Airlines' rule, Southwest Airlines' rule is even simpler and more blunt: overweight passengers who "exceed the boundaries of the seat next to them" need to buy two tickets. The author can't help but sigh, flying for overweight people is truly exhausting.

　　Overweight people's burials cost more

　　Overweight people take up more space, so their graves are naturally larger. It's not unreasonable for the city of Sutton Bridge in Lincolnshire, England, to charge extra for overweight people's burials. But in the eyes of overweight people, this is nothing but outright discrimination! Luckily, breathing oxygen doesn't cost money right now, otherwise, just the oxygen fee alone might bankrupt many overweight people.

　　Being overweight is illegal

　　When the author found out that being overweight is illegal in Japan, the author felt like all these years of living were wasted. In 2008, Japan explicitly stated that men over 40 must have a waist circumference of no more than 85 centimeters and women no more than 90 centimeters. Those who exceed the limit must undergo health education. Some local governments or private companies that fail to promote weight loss may even be fined.

　　Compared to Japan's law, a regulation in the European Union seems a bit "loving." The European Court of Justice once proposed that "if an employee is unable to complete their work due to mobility issues or sudden illness caused by obesity, it would be allowed for the company to consider obesity as a disability." However, the author guesses that overweight people, being "protected" as disabled people, probably don't feel too good about it...

　　Leave three blank lines for everyone to fully experience the world of overweight people)

　　However, the world isn't always so harsh towards overweight people. Many people enjoy making friends with them. The author, who spends all day with overweight people, believes that every overweight person deserves to be treated gently.

　　Because they are humorous, overweight people are generous and often use self-deprecating jokes to entertain others;

　　Because they love to eat, being with them, we can always find delicious food;

　　Because they are warm, huddled in an overweight person's arms in winter is more effective than hugging a heating pad;

　　Because they are reliable, when they stand up for you, they can scare others into submission;

　　Because they love to laugh, overweight people have benevolent faces, and their laughter is very cheerful...

　　Whether you are overweight or thin, being in the world means experiencing both its malice and kindness. Being overweight is certainly not a sin! But people shouldn't let themselves become excessively overweight, because obesity can lead to health problems! Even if beauty standards return to the Tang Dynasty one day, people must still manage their weight.

　　If you become overweight one day, conditions like fatty liver disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and even cancer may find you. Therefore, overweight people should continue to embrace the kindness of the world, treat the seemingly unkind treatment towards them as a form of care, and turn it into motivation to become more beautiful and healthy.
