Thin privilege is never being shamed in public just because you are fat. Today, I went to K-mart to buy a DVD for my mother's birthday. While I was browsing the shelves, a man came up behind me and physically pushed past me, muttering something about "fat assholes always blocking the aisle". A couple standing nearby snickered and nodded at him. Ugh. I just don't understand why it's acceptable for society to treat fat people this way. Just because I'm fat, it doesn't mean you can be rude to me. They aren't even long aisles anyway, so if I really was in his way he could have just gone down the next aisle instead. I wish I had said something witty or clever at the time, but all could say was a "f--- you" after he had already walked away. TAGS thin privilege fat discrimination shopping submission BY y999
