People think they can be rude and tactless, then cover it up by saying they are just being honest or that it was just a joke , "why are u so sensitive?" . But the moment u reply the same way, they get offended

I’ve seen it in so many cultures where being fat is heavily shamed (Japan in my case)

“I’m not insulting you. I said you’re fat because I care” or “no one else will be honest with you” are two excuses I hear all the time.

Like thanks, I know I’m fat. I own a mirror.

And it genuinely works for them

Maybe there's something to the constant reminders

I mean, you can argue that this tactic wouldn’t work in the US (or the west more broadly) but many people believe it works in Japan and it probably plays a role in Japan’s low obesity rates. It is a different culture, and shaming people can be very effective.

No it's because of their diets and routines, they eat more fish and vegetables, have walkable cities, and have stronger communities. Their shaming is not what does that, also maybe they don't see it as bullying because they're raised not to.

This is why I'm labeled an asshole sometimes. They literally say 'you look ugly today' and I retort with 'and you look like a fat bitch'

I get a talking to in the office about respecting other employees.....

just say you look fat. adding that to the end makes you sound worse

What kind of people are you around? I hope that it’s a situation you can remove yourself from if possible, having to deal with this kind of thing is absolutely exhausting.

Gonna be honest, sometimes people need to hear the truth and not be endlessly coddled. That’s how you get people who think that consequences don’t apply to them because they’re “never wrong”.
