Thin privilege is having a fast metabolism, yet not realizing that is the reason you are skinny.

I seriously don’t understand how this is so difficult for people to understand. I’m a relatively skinny guy. Yet I can eat massive amounts of unhealthy food (with no exercise) and not gain any weight at all. And by massive amounts I mean in excess of 3000 calories on some days.

On the flip side I have overweight friends who eat like birds. Seriously, they’ll have a salad for lunch or just half a sandwich, not even because they’re trying to lose weight but because they’re just not hungry. The difference between us is I have a fast metabolism and they have a slow one. Simple.

It infuriates me to see a guy say fat people are that way because they’re lazy and “eat like pigs”- right before he tears open a bag of chips. Eating badly is such a way of life for most skinny people, yet they still believe they’re skinny because of their diet “willpower”. Ugh.
