Homosexuality is a choice but being fat is genetic.

What about a gay disease like AIDs?Pinky wrote:Obesity-related illnesses have been estimated to account for as much as 20% of US health care expenditures, and those costs are not all borne by the obese. I don't think a similar statement could be made about homosexuality.

This photo leads me to a horrible but inescapable conclusion. Hugely fat guys must grease up and actually fuck their own underbelly, which leaves me simultaneously disgusted and envious.

Also, a majority of gays don't necessarily want to be straight. A significant amount of fat people want to be thinner, even if they are not successful in getting there.
Dammit what a fucking tool.

Most BL contestants keep it off? I'd be surprised.What a duck says wrote:Lulz at comparing the "cure" rates of homosexuality and obesity. Obviously this douche doesn't have a TV to watch The Biggest Loser or Extreme Makeover, in which both shows successfully tackle obesity more successfully in one season than the anti-homosexuality cures have ever done.

I didn't say *most* necessarily keep it off, but if only one person maintained not going back to an obese state, they're running a much better ship than curing homosexuality.Grandpa's Spells wrote:Most BL contestants keep it off?

I would guess that many people on this board personally know at least one person (or might even be that person) that has gone from obese to not-obese and been able to maintain that state. Would you disagree?

Some kept most of it off, some didn't. Without heights listed, makes it tough to judge where they are at. The finale weights have lots of dehydration and other unhealthy practices going on to get their weight down as low as possible. The first BL (I believe, the ex-wrestler guy) said he practically killed himself getting his finale weight as low as he did, using all his old wrestling "making weight" tools.

I'll tell you what. Having a genetic predisposition to 5% bodyfat would be a handicap in that scenario. You gays think about that next time you're beating off about Brad Clooney.WildGorillaMan wrote:If the comet hit tomorrow and we were plunged into a new ice-age/nuclear winter/stone age one year after Day Zero there would be zero morbidly obese people, a whole bunch of ex-fatties foraging for survival and pretty much the same percentage of gays there has ever been.

Way to miss the point, as always. Clearly a tendency towards obesity has been a huge evolutionary/survival benefit, given how prevalent it is today.Gorbachev wrote:I'll tell you what.

Next time be sure to bring economic class into this.

I think that is a stretch.WildGorillaMan wrote: Clearly a tendency towards obesity has been a huge evolutionary/survival benefit, given how prevalent it is today.
Once you procreate, your job is done as a member of the species. If being obese enhances getting your genes into the next generation, then it is an advantage, but that remains to be seen. Modern conveniences and medicine have allowed a plethora of disadvantageous genetic expressions to re-emerge, especially in the rich western world.
Lots of $$ is the new evolutionary fitness standard.WildGorillaMan wrote:Next time be sure to bring economic class into this.

Actually, I was heartened to see the evidence that we're levelling off so that wasn't exactly an alarmist post. But you got to use a hyphen and refer to Malthus so I guess that was a nice moment for you. Yawn.Turdacious wrote:Gorbachev wrote:Some neo-malthusian bullshit.
