Have you seen or experienced attacks on bbws or bhms?

I came to know of an incident that happened in the dairy queen.A young lady tried to place an order but the manager wouldn't take it.She kept saying that they were out of that.There were people in front of this young lady that had no problem ordering.This dairy queen happened to be in a truck stop and the place was busy.I have also been in subway and saw it happen again.This time the guy working behind the counter didn't make the order the way it should have been made.He cut way down on the product amount that was to be issued.I know because I know the manager and I asked.This is not exceptable by any stretch of the imagination.This,imo,is an attack of discrimination and laced with hate.

`There was this one time I was at Walmart in the wee hours of the morning. There was this one slender lady stocking the bakery shelves. In walked a lady of size, nice friendly type. I knew her. we nodded to each other and she went about her business. she had a cart. she was placing several donuts boxes in the cart and this slender lady went right behind and removes them and placed them on the counter so the lady back there took them down. this lady of size asked what was the matter and the slender lady said you can't hog all the good stuff!. "HOG", I yelled out and we both went to management. got that lady fired for you see my friend worked for the local court house cafe and was purchasing donuts for that establishment. some people just think we're all going to eat more then our share and they'll have none.lol

`I wouldn't necessarily call the two incidents mentioned above as attacks (like physical is what first comes to mind), but they definitely did show discrimination and rudeness due to a person's larger size...so I guess yes they could be considered an attack of rudeness and jumping to conclusions.

The example I can give of jumping to conclusions: I do notice it doesn't matter what town I am, whether I am new to the store or not...if I am in a grocery store almost always a person that I dont know (be it man or woman, young or old) if they look around for help to ask someone where to find an item I am almost always the one asked...even when I dont have the item in my cart at all. Like I am big and therefore must be friendly and knowledgeable about where every food item in the store is located exactly at anytime of the day or night (some days after 3-5 people in a row try to use me like a store employee I look to make sure I am not accidently dressed in the store dress code, and nope definitely not...unless walmart/kroger/u-pick-a-grocery workers can wear pink dresses now).

Once I was in a health class in college, and the instructor was lecturing about nutrition and the growing obesity epidemic...he then talked about how if you really wanted to know what to eat in order to be healthy versus what to eat to be unhealthy all you had to do was follow some people around in the grocery store...specifically for healthy follow around healthy fit and trim people to see what they put in their buggies, and for unhealthy food to find some overweight people and follow them around to see what they put in their buggies. He then summed it up saying you would be able to see exactly why the healthy people were healthy and the overweight were overweight. So he gave an assignment for everyone to do that, and anytime any student that came back to class claiming they only saw healthy choices in the overweight buggy he just shrugged off saying maybe they were finally on a diet. ---- oh I know there is some truth to this definitely, afterall if we were all eating a chicken breast and lettuce for every meal then no we probably wouldnt have gained so much extra size, but even for my size I usually try to buy fairly healthy foods most of the time; but I do know there are some skinny people out there that wouldnt be that way because of how they ate at all if not for a very high natural metabolism and I definitely wouldnt want to take cues as to what I should eat by following their buggy around a store!
