- Appreciate the natural human body as-is. Reject perfection and curated beauty.
- To get you must be willing to give.

No. An unhealthy body is not attractive. Reject complacency and obesity.

There a vast amount of space between unhealthy physique and the unrealistic beauty standards in media.

There is also a vast amount of space between a normal human body and the bodies that most Americans now have. That has nothing to do with the unrealistic beauty standards in media (which is also a thing)
Obesity is bad, and it annoys me when people start defending it as being beautiful. It’s not, it will kill you in loads of unpleasant ways.
Get healthy, exercise, eat less, eat less sugars

Nobody in the thread above mentioned obesity. Nobody is saying you have to be attracted to obese people. Or disputing that’s it’s unhealthy.
It remains true that there is a lot of space between this extreme and the extreme portrayed in media. Body weight is not the only standard, it’s one of many.

I’ve met people far more beautiful than most you can see in mainstream media, let alone adult materials.
(And in case one bitch with ASPD is stalking me, no, I don’t mean her ; that is, this is true for her too.)

No one mentioned obesity except you.
Stop projecting your own self-hatred into others.

Stop bringing hatred into this discussion.

But… that’s what you did?

Obesity is a result of many things. It’s mostly hereditary, so the comment you are answering is right.
Just like other cases of “unhealthy”. Just like with them, though, it’s possible to find one’s optimum in food and sports and sleep to feel better, and a person who feels better is usually more attractive.
But looking like models you can find in the interwebs is just not possible if you are not already like them.

Obesity is not hereditary. It is calories in, calories out. You dont have to look like a model, but you dont have to be fat.
People who feel better are healthy because they aren’t obese.

It usually is.
Passing through your individual system. Mine, for example, very badly processes sugars. One teaspoon of sugar in tea means I stink like cat piss in half an hour after drinking that tea.
There are “fat” models, and also it’s usually not your choice as I have previously said.
In case someone thinks I have a skin in the game - I’m as thin as a skeleton. But I have family members overweight and you really don’t know what you’re talking about, they are among the most healthy eating people I know and still their weight requires precision and discipline in their diet, both more than you likely ever achieved in life, sorry if rude.
Yeah, it’s better to be healthy and rich than sick and poor, as they say to such statements where I live.
