If a person is overweight, does it influence your opinion of them?

No, I don't look at them differently. I look at peoples personalities more than the outside of them.

no, it does not. i have a lot of friends who are on the heavy side, and it doesn't matter, never affected the relationship in any way.

No because a person should be seen as a whole being, inside and outside. I am sure that there are people who do judge someone by their weight, i.e. if they are overweight then they eat too much or the wrong food or whatever. And of course anyone who is really think must be anoxeric. LOL People who make sure judgements are very shallow and really do need to get a life. Sometimes there are medical reasons why a person is their size.

No I don't, as it is not who the person is on the inside, and that is more important to me!

it depends how much overweight, if not much then it doesnot matter. But if far from standard weight, then a little. :P

No, it doesn't change who they are!

If a person is just overweight, no that will not influence my opinion of them. However, if they are MORE than overweight, like 400 pounds, I am going to wonder why they aren't taking better care of their health.

No not really, I believe it is more important to judge a person for who he is rather than what he looks like. Looks come and go but the person inside remains always

No it doesn't and i think it should not bother anyone. I have friends who are on the plump size and i get mad if someone as much as make rude comment about them. Most of the time it is a medical condition. The main reason is thyroid gland and people are not aware of it.

Not at all,I judge people on how they treat me and others.Their weight or lack thereof has no influence

No it does not I go by personality not by looks I never have

No - no one is perfect and we shouldn't expect them to be.

Nop!!! PS- everyone that posts in my discussions is rated!!!

depends how much overweight

No, they are human beings like all of us, why should I look at them diferently ???

no i dont because i feel that i am overweight too and i dont want people judging me.so i dont judge them.

No absolutly not... Why should it..? Friendship is about who somebody are and not about what they look.

Absolutely not ! I do know alot of overweight people and they are fun people. Normally people that are overweight are fun to be with!

I don;t, but as an overwieght person, yes I do think that people look at mee differently, my husband thinks i'm paranoid and it's all in my head.

Yes, she or he needs to do diet and need to protect her health
