Why some people bully overweight people?

in my view, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so nothing to worry about the outer beauty or appearance. you don't have to worry about what people said. be confident of who you are, then you are beautiful...

Because they do not have a heart. I do not bully overweight people, I on the other hand try to make them feel comfortable and happy. I also give them advices on how to lose weight. Some people are overweight because of their illness and therefore we cannot tease them. Even if some are not ill and are overweight because they eat far too much we must still respect them as a human being deserves to.

So what is the point bullying people? Are they worthless? I used to have passion in music so much that I even pretend them when walking on the streets, people and neighbours saw the difference on me and started bullying me, saying nasty words which I don't even dare to speak to people who get bullied. I don't bully people for as long as I live, I like to get close and communicate with people I know, bullying can be illegal one day if I raise this topic in our neighbourhood, hopefully people can be aware of bullying.

I don't think that it is ever just overweight people who get bullied. One of the bad things about the modern world is that a lot of people tend to get bullied regardless of what it is that is different about them, as long as there is something that other people could pick up on. One of the things that I was bullied about was my weight, so I lost 115 pounds to try and make it a little bit better, and now people just choose to pick on me for other things instead. It is a shame, but it just seems to be the way that the world is.

First off I do not have a problem with people that are overweight.. Some of my friends that are overweight have tried everything they can to lose weight but they couldnt do it.. Somethings that one did was so sad.. Then I asked her why she was doing it; she told me so she could look good again.. I was so ready to cry.. I told her she looked so beautiful to me.. Doesnt matter the weight; as long as you are healthy.. The only time I would have a problem with anyone that was overweight would be if their health was at risk and they were not willing to work on it.. But I would never bully a person.. Thats so wrong and it really hurts.. I am not overweight but I have some phyiscal problems that people would and or still do.. Judging people is wrong period!!!!!

Maybe because people believe that beauty is all about physical looks. They never knew how important inside beauty is. I have seen people being bullied because they are chubby or fat- but those chubby/fat people are much better or good people compared to other good looking ones.

It would be boring if every person looked the same. It is interesting in life that a person has a particular eye color, hair color and body shape. Many teenagers are thin but once they get older they put on lots more weight. Weight can be hard to lose after pregnancy. It can be challenging to look after a newborn baby and do lots of exercising. A young baby needs lots of care around the clock. The mom can feel tired and not have enough time for healthy eating and lots of exercise. It was interesting that Melissa did an experiment with makeup and padding and got nasty things said to her on the New York streets. Beauty can be inside. We say never judge a book by its cover. I wouldn't ever be horrible to a person because of the way he or she looked.

You can never please everybody.. I am sorry for your friend.. Anyway, if this happen I think the best way is just to ignore..cause deep inside it's not true. But If the bullying goes beyond, then its good to just file a case in order this person to learn..

I think these people just don't know any better and they themselves are insecure with their own selves that they have to resort to bullying and taunting others so they will feel good. These people obviously hasn't moved on with their lives, I mean, the last people should do this is after they went to kindergarten. At least these kids have an excuse, they don't really know any better and they are yet to experience real life outside the playground. It is really sad that grown men and women would do this.
