Feh.
Yes, because there are no skinny people who have high cholesterol, diabetes and heart disease. And of course, all of us fat people have all those things and it is all our fault because we are fat pigs and as such, we don't deserve to be treated with humanity or respect.
Puhlease.
Don't even get me started.
I am just one of many fat people with super-good cholesterol and low BP--this doesn't make me any better or any more deserving of respect than anyone else. There are fat people who have high cholesterol and high BP, just as there are skinny people with the same issues. Do the fat ones not deserve their medication just because they are fat? Is it really so much to ask that we are treated appropriately by the medical establishment?
You'd think a gay man in San Francisco (Morford) who has seen how the medical establishment has routinely treated gay men with AIDS would have more of a clue about such things. Then again, while I have enjoyed some of Morford's writings, lately I have been seeing an increasing trend of elitism and snobbery in his writings. This one takes the cake though.
Mr. Morford, just because you are a skinny white male you are no better than me. In fact, your intolerance and fat-hating words put you well beneath me, so far beneath me I won't even ask you to kiss my fat ass.

And just because I'm in a nit picky mood - the health issues he sites are not ones you usually require shots in the butt muscle; most of those use pills or subcutaneous shots. So first he's blaming fat folks for their health needs and then he doesn't even get his facts straight about how those "fat diseases" are treated.

has anyone sent him angry email?
