60. We all see things through our own filters. Probably if you are
not fat you are not attuned to what is hurtful and hateful to people who are. I admit that I'm not fat so I don't necessarily see it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I am willing to be enlightened.

I am a parent who feels hated when I see long threads about "breeders" and nasty generalizations about kids. Maybe those who don't have kids don't see the hate, but I do. That's my prism.

So you can either care about how others feel or not.
