Have you noticed that more people are more willing to compliment a fat person on-line than an athletic person? - Beer Farts - 04-08-2014 07:51 PM
I see it all the time on social media sites.
When a fat person uploads a picture, more specifically, a fat woman, she will get compliments from her friends saying how "sexy," "pretty," and "gorgeous" she looks.
Meanwhile, if an athletic-muscular guy posts a picture, he will get little to no compliments at all.
Why is that?

People don't like stroking athletes' egos.
Fat people need ego boosting.
