1. [+2,258, -439] It's not a bias, it's statistics. After living life, I've come to realize that there really is a reason why some people are fat. They eat a lot and don't move as much as they should. That's fact.

2. [+1,578, -134] She looks really cute in these pictures

3. [+1,276, -98] Hul, I was thinking she looked prettier lately... she lost 25 kg??????

4. [+164, -76] It's not bias but the truth...

5. [+139, -13] Sometimes skinny people are lazier. Too lazy to even cook their own meals so they'd rather starve or eat something easy.

6. [+130, -48] It's true, though. Unless you have some type of disease.

7. [+127, -21] You're not lazy because you're fat. You're fat because you're lazy.

8. [+106, -31] But isn't it true for 9/10 cases..?

9. [+80, -23] I know there are exceptions but being fat usually means the person is lazy and failed to care for themselves... If you eat moderately and are active, you may gain weight but you'll never be obese...

10. [+58, -25] It must be so nice for everyone to have so much time to judge and hate fat people. Shouldn't you all be too busy living your own lives and minding your business to hurt others like this??

11. [+54, -2] I don't think it's laziness... just people with large appetites who gain weight

12. [+41, -9] I had a disease where I had to take steroids and gained 30 kg from it. When I was skinny, I used to look down on fat people too and thought they were lazy... but sometimes there really are cases where you gain weight just from breathing.

13. [+38, -6] Just because someone's fat doesn't mean you get to put them down. It's not like they're stealing your food. Not everyone has to look the same way.

14. [+36, -18] Even elephants are vegetarians. I think people are born with a certain gene for metabolism that differs by everyone. Anyone who thinks being fat is some type of lazy crime is just showing how stupid they are.

15. [+20, -2] Reminds me of that story about the female student at Seoul University who was overweight. People kept telling her to lose weight and she said she had no intention of losing weight because she loves eating and that if she's at the top of her department in Seoul University, she's managing herself just fine ㅋㅋㅋ no one could refute her.
