Have you ever seen obesity used in a positive connotation? I doubt it. I won't waste my energy arguing with someone who isn't trying to take this as a learning or growth opportunity. Does it offend me personally? No. Could it offend others? Yes. That's what's important.

Instead of being defensive, maybe try and see it from someone else's point of view.

And I don't feel sorry to be me, because I am fostering an inclusive environment instead of berating someone for speaking out against derogatory diction.
