However, it is against the law for employers, for example, to discriminate for ANY reason...
For ANY reason?

I voted no. Some folks just need to work a little harder than others, that's all![]()
Not being obese, I don't follow such activism.
However, it is against the law for employers, for example, to discriminate for ANY reason... including obesity.
In fact, Employers are required to provide accommodation for obese employees if working conditions affect them.
About the only situation in which the obese CAN be discriminated against is in transportation ticketing.
Airlines can make the fat buy more than one ticket...
But I can attest that they do not generally make them do so...
Beyond all that... the same fight the Gay community is having is the fight the ugly can mount.
As far as the law... the constitution in the US guarantees equal treatment...
For everybody.
Its just a matter of making a fight over it and proving that your treatment is unequal based upon a criteria of, say, ugliness.
but for me... humans have a right to prefer beauty.
And it may be harsh... but evolution doesn't play fair.
The runt of the little certainly feels the world is unfair... but the competition he gets the short end of if probably good for his species, as a whole.
Serial kisser, I'm not a gold member and cannot view your pictures. But, if that is you in the avatar, I would not consider you obese. You're chubby, sure, but if I am going to be served food or drink, I want it from a healthy woman. You cannot trust food judgements by skinny people lol. And as far as it goes in the rest of life, I prefer women with a little extra. I would love to have you as my bartender any day over a stereotypically thin "pretty" girl. You'd most likely be better at fulfilling your duties than someone who has skated through life on their looks.
considering ya being passed for a promotion to bartending ya can be pretty sure ya being discriminated against based on ya weight.
ya can ask to talk to a regional manager. try to get a list of names and employments dates of folks promoted instead of you. ask for a record of your reviews, write-ups and any other employment records. get something from your former employer where you did bartend.
there is also an option of contacting an employment lawyer to review your situation.
don't see a damn thing wrong with the way you look, Ms. Serial. you're an attractive woman *not that being hot should really being a qualifier for bartending* and you know the job. can't see a reason you shouldn't get the promotion.
Thank you. I appreciate the support. I feel like they'd always come down to "Well he's the manager and he gets to pick who he wants on bar".
ya welcome. discrimination irks me fiercely.
not sure how much ya wanna rattle their asses...
ya could contact some of the fat acceptance/activist sites.
maybe you could connect with folks in your local area.
I agree with BBucko.
..... It's like education, some need to work a hell of a lot harder to get the same grades as a naturally talented person. You can't just give them and extra 30% marks to be even the playing field.
urm, nope. most peoples still see body size as a sign of wealth, beauty and fertility/virility.
a shift away from the curvy/goddess/ample body is one of the ooks of globalization.
stupid industrialization *snickers*
No. Fat is ugly. Fat men are ugly. Fat women are ugly. That's just the way it is.
nope. fat people can be ugly. just like skinny people can be ugly. depends on the person.
I'm sure that in primitive cultures where everyone is starving, obesity is a sign of wealth. But those cultures still believe in witchcraft and raping young girls to cure AIDS. Their opinions don't matter.
i realize you get off on calling yourself an unattractive person. kinda appearance-cuckolding, ugly fuck humiliation.. but dude.. why work so hard to be unpleasant personality wise.
Curvy is not the same thing as fat. Fat women have tried their damnedest to make them synonyms, but they are not. If you have a hangover, you're not curvy, you're fat. Curvy women are those of an average size who have a very feminine figure. They aren't women with hangovers and arms puffed up like the michellin man.
Anyone ever tell you your breath smell like ass? It sure sounds like you are talking out of yours.No. Fat is ugly. Fat men are ugly. Fat women are ugly. That's just the way it is.
