Default Re: Are you prejudiced against fat people?

[ QUOTE ]
Yes I am.

I dont want to sit by them on a plane or at the movie theatre. I find them unhealthy and sometimes lazy.

That's not necessarily prejudice. There is nothing irrational about not wanting to be uncomfortable at a theater or in a plane cause the guy next to you is taki ng up to much room.

Along the same lines, being fat is unhealthy and a fat person is probably more likely to be lazy than a non-fat person. As long as you don't assume that ALL fat people are lazy, I don't think you are prejudiced.
