...but I certainly don't think less of him because of his weight

Not to single you out at all, just using this quote as an example.

Why the hell must people single someone out for their physical attributes. I don't understand it. If it's something good then that's one thing but I don't understand why if you find something undesirable then why you have to immediately start bringing tons of attention to it and then hate on the person who exhibits the quality.

It's happened my whole life in every facet, and not just because I've been overweight most of my life. Why can't people just stfu about physical qualities and make fun of each other for being annoying douchebags instead.

I try my best not to judge people based on most physical attributes that they cannot help or are at least largely due to chance (or a choice that was not theirs)...I like to judge people based on how they treat other people

*as an aside, I also try not to judge people based on things like intelligence...at least to the extent that I think it is a product of environment...I find it surprising that many people would call a person shallow for, for instance, dating a person because they are physically attractive, but not call them shallow for dating a person because they are intelligent...there is more to it IMO

but if you accept that if is reasonable to judge people based on other attributes such as willpower, vanity, or intelligence, physical attributes can be indicative of these things...

some people consider being overweight to indicate a lack of willpower...and if they look down on people who lack the willpower to maintain a certain weight, they may look down on someone because of (at least indirectly) their weight
