So, I gotta disagree with you there and say that you are just trying to flamebait or jerk some chains to get a argument going when there is none since the players are able to make their characters however they wish for them to be like in game and if you bring up npcs who are not fat too, I'll just ignore you since I don't wish to continue wasting my time here.

You all are absolutely amazing, lol. You do realize the ones that lash out are the truly offended ones? My intended point was an observation of one extreme of the character creation being much more prevalent than the other, and perhaps this may make for some kind of discussion on maybe the psychology behind player choice? Or the included and or lacking options in character creation? Or anything worth conversation really, whatever. sigh
Well, I tried, but the **** hit the fan fast here. Alright ZOS, go ahead and lock if you deem necessary. But at least I'll go to bed tonight with a clear conscience since my initial intentions were pure, and all your reactions are funnier than Hell.

You were the one who started this, as i said you can do whatever you want, just don't go around telling people how they should behave. You made this post, people responded accordingly, the fact is that the majority is tired of hearing this ***, also, i'm not offended, i just called you out on your ***.

The point of the argument is that being fat is not healthy, and no amount of feminist propaganda is gonna change that. You could have just said that you like fat characters, and no one would have said anything, but instead you decided to start an argument with an extremely poor excuse, by saying , i have this strange urge to post about how this character looks so thin, and it bothers me..then continuing by saying, why don't you give him/her a cheeseburger. (to make her/him look fat like me...) you can hide behind petty words, but people have understood the true meaning behind this post, and it is that you want all people to do a character like you did, otherwise why would you even feel the need to post about this?

Uh the point of OP's argument was for Zos to expand upon the character creator's options for body mass. Your propaganda is in your head, triggered one *pats on the head*
I think it's pretty logical, in that people who play games are participating in a mass fantasy. With the kind of distorted beauty standards set by modern society, many people choose to be represented by an ideal that matches that standard. It's more a comment on our perceptions of beauty than an insult or accusation.
Personally, all my characters are tall and muscular, as that is a female standard of beauty that I admire and aspire to. And I don't think it's wrong to admire a slender frame either, as long as you don't belittle people or tell them to 'eat a cheeseburger'.
The phrase "Give that person a cheeseburger." is born more out of concern than contempt. Its proven that thin, skinny, "slender" figures have their own health risks as husky and overweight bodies do. I mean honestly its a natural instinct to feed someone that appears sickly. Really my somewhat poor attempt at humor there stems from an opinion based upon a desire to see healthy representations, and definitely not a desire to belittle peoples preferences on beauty. Perhaps i was hinting at a desire for the character creation to have a broader range to its sliders? Perhaps i just wanted to add my own input to a commentary without necro posting another thread?
Or maybe i really did just want to be a typical forum jerk and belittle peoples preferences like you said.
being too skinny is unhealthy
being too fat is unhealthy
drinking to much water can kill you
no drinking enough can kill you
moderation in everything, as someone who was never really fat but never built I spent the last year completely changing my diet because I wanted to, nothing but water, better nutrition (diet is an evil word) I am no the oldest I have ever been and the best shape of my life.
I have come to the conclusion that fat people are indeed lazy
I have to eat a decent meal every two and a half hours as standing lean muscle burns more calories all through out the day and night more then running, and I do that too (I am crazy and enjoy it)
all it takes is a tiny amount of knowledge on proper nutrition and a wee bit of exercise, I do it all at home with no workout equipment other then a set of dumbbells (I don't like gyms) and I have inspired those around me to change themselves too, then we inspire more, now my extended family is working on their nutrition and consulting me on some easy exercise they can do.
btw don't shame fit girls with large assets, those exist too and its not a shameful figure despite fat people claiming it is.
on topic.
you can make incredibly fat characters, you can make incredibly skinny characters. people make what they want, done and done. and nobody has any right to say someone's character shape is good or bad other then the person playing the character.
btw its always the fat people that are un happy with themselves that feel the problem is with everyone else in the world and that the world should change rather then them.

She was quite tall, but must have had the body mass setting ( the triangle ) set to the absolute thinnest possible, and every body slider looked to have been set to the minumum, apart from the breast slider which looked to be maximum.
It actually looked frightful. I've never seen a character so disproportional, and I hope I never do again.
Edit - I like to see curvaceous characters, I think they look wonderful.
When i first created my mSorc this is exactly how i set her up, why because i had seen the soul shriven skin that was due to come out, and i wanted my character to look truly shriven! and she really did!
........ but most fat people are just lazy and don't want to do exercise, they're decision, but don't force people to accept your standard.

Being fat is unhealthy.

I have a couple of skinny characters. But females and males though.Female Characters, why so thin?

One post does not make for propaganda. Or even one of these posts every so often. And honestly using the words cancerous and whatever *** was meant to be in reference to feminism shows the need for more of it.
