Fat Acceptance Is A Ruse To Avoid Weight Loss


One of the things that go with this cockamamie attitude is the demand
that they be allowed to sit next to people of reasonable weight in
narrow airplane seats without hearing complaints. What selfishness!

Why do the trolls always try to resurrect the fat people and airline
seats crap? Hasn't this subject been beaten to death yet?

Has it been SOLVED yet?

No it hasn't, and it is going to be anytime soon. Most airline seat
sizes are based on a Harvard train passenger study performed in 1950,
which claimed the average passenger only needs 18" max. of seating
space. For your information most adult males have shoulders that extend
well beyond the 18" mark. Unless of course you are some pencil necked
geek.

BTW if it is so abhorrent for you to touch another individual while
sitting in coach, then try first class. Just reach in and let the moths
out of your wallet and pay the higher price. If you can't afford it
then take the bus with the rest of the plebes.
