Removed disease from obese description as is it not an abnormal effect. It is completely normal given bad nutrition and poor living habits.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.22.199.48 (talkcontribs) 16:08, 27 November 2010‎ (UTC)[reply]

Whether we need to develop programs to reduce anti-fat bias or not is a matter of opinion. If that opinion needs to be expressed, it should be reworded "These (named and cited) people believe that programs need to be developed ..." Peboki (talk) 18:07, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Umm. . .

Merging

If one does decide to attempt to merge a page into another again please remember to actually merge and not just redirect. That is a great way to lose a ton of information.-Rainbowofpeace (talk) 23:41, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Weightism

Seems that both terms refer to stigma against larger people. Brainy J ~~ (talk) 20:08, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this idea. Anti-fat bias shouldn't have its own article, and there is no 'anti-thin bias' article. Therefore I think the anti-fat bias article should be merged with this article, but I also believe this article requires a lot more work done on it; namely dividing the bias against overweight people and the bias against underweight people.

Not 100% sure that I'd say "merge" as the weightism article reads 100% as an advocacy editorial and not one single thing is sourced. 68.227.167.123 (talk) 08:07, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
