    Imagine calling someone racist and fatphobic because of their romantic preferences.

    Am I man-phobic because I’m not attracted to men?

      I want to give you a demonstration of what it feels like to be mocked for your appearance like this woman was mocked by this man, but it would be mean so I don’t think I will.

        I’m not defending the guy, but why call him fatphobic and racist, which isn’t relevant here, instead of, you know, saying he’s mean, an asshole, prick, etc…?

        Truth be told, if you asked most people to recreate this meme but for them, they would also appear racist and fatphobic to you.
