Do you get harassed about your weight? I don't mean on line forums, but IRL. Do strangers ever glare at you in disgust? Has anyone ever called you a name (about your weight of course)? How does it compare with gay harassment?
 
As a 300 lbs man, I got harassed all the time... I once was bare-chested on the street and someone yelled at me: put your shirt on, you are offensive!, I promptly responded to him with a magistral honour finger... I have accepted for a long time that my body does not conform to what society consider ok, so it does not bother me anymore to be the receiving end of cruel remarks!
 
I was not really overweight as a child. I am now. I have some health problems because of it, and I am trying to lose weight. I don't experience and social problems as a result though, and I don't recall that ever happening.
 
I've been overweight ever since adolescence, but I don't recall ever getting any grief about it since I left high school. I might have been called "fat ass" or something similar, but it was never out of the blue - it was someone screaming at me about something else, and that was the putdown they chose. So no - nothing really to report.

I generally tell people to kiss my ass, and I have a lot of ass to kiss so they better put a pot of coffee on.
 
I read the title of this thread and thought it was about something else.. !oops! teehee *|*

I'm not overweight anymore, but I used to weigh over 400 pounds.

as a kid, I was harassed way more about my weight than about being gay, even as someone who was out in an all boy's catholic high school.

as an adult, I never really felt harassment regarding either, at least not to my face... of course, my self esteem was so shattered that I rarely put myself in a position to face rejection either.

Nope never got picked on because I carried my weight well throughout High School and out in places. It was when I went into gay events that I was looked at as if I was the most disgusting thing there.
 
Used to be like 250+ but, I think I wore it well. Never really got alot of shit about it. Oddly enough, once I started losing weight is when I got fucked with. I did lose alot of weight in, in a rather short amount of time, so everyone just assumed "He's on that stuff..."
 
When I was much younger I was very thin. Then about age 29, I started gaining weight; last year I was the heaviest I ever had been (230; age 40); which I was not happy about. I have gotten more exercise and am watching my diet and calorie intake and am now down to 203 which is still heavier than I'd like.

To answer the original question: I have not been harrassed about my weight. People who have known me for a while are happy that I have lost the weight.

I do feel for the people who have been harrassed.

My tuppance.
 
My first day as a teacher, 3 classes all took the piss out of my size. Eventually they gave up when I stonewalled it but seeing as I get that kind of thing in my personal life I had to make a stand about it professionally.

The thing I don't get is how it's considered terrible to go at someone's race, religion, gender or sexuality but fat boys are always fair game. I'm know I'm overweight, but I know a few cracked out skinny girls from college who got high and got pregnant but hey, they're thin so that's good, right?
 
When I was a kid I used to get teased all the time!
Now not to much.
But some oriental people come up to me and rub my tummy saying its "soft like pillow" I don't find it as offensive as I do funny, so I joke with them and act like I'm preggers and make "the baby" kick!
 
No, quite the opposite in fact. Most people respect me because I don't let my weight hold me back...
 
Right this afternoon, my professor kept on connecting patients with edema (swelling) to me being fat, swelled-like, and not having kidney or liver diseases.

Of course he was joking, and it's funny (I laughed frankly), but there was a friend of mine who got offended by a joke with the same content.
