I've been getting that too, because with my new job I've lost some weight, and people are telling me I look so pretty and thin. (I only lost maybe five pounds.) So I wasn't pretty before? What the hell. We are afraid of fat people.
The emaciated sick look is so hawt now, don't you know?

Exactly. I've lost about twenty, and people are noticing with pleasure. I think along the same lines as you: What, was I hideous before? Why does weight loss make me suddenly marvelous? Grah.

My overweight aunt pinched my side fat a few years ago to state that I was getting too fat. (My job had changed.) I've never been more offended in my life.
To be fair, I've lost five and I've regained a lot of my muscle back, so I probably do look a bit different.
I would have loved to see that genderflopped race. That would be so refreshing and awesome.
I really do think you got it right, here: Fat has been equated with negative qualities rather than just seen as a physical trait, when it doesn't even make sense for such a thing to happen. I don't really understand it.
