Well sure! Everyone finds different things attractive and there's nothing wrong with that. What I find objectionable is – well, firstly, the perceived attractiveness of people being brought up regarding a fat-bashing secret as though it is in some way relevant, as if what they find attractive is a defense of fat people somehow. How attractive any given person finds any other given person is not a measure of the second person's worth. Personally I find nothing more patronising than people saying what amounts to "I think fat is okay because I think fat people are attractive" and acting like that is supposed to mean anything to anyone but the person saying it.

Secondly, thin people can have body image issues and get shit for their body type just like fat people do, and calling them 'methed-out looking' is not exactly going to make any of them feel better about it. There is not a level of thinness at which it becomes okay to say hurtful things to someone.

Sure, the anon might not have meant to convey these things, but in this context it comes across as someone posting in a misguided attempt to defend fat people by voicing their irrelevant personal opinion of attractiveness and making a hurtful remark about thin people.

Hmm...yeah. I read it as 'all skinny people look methed-out', but it's hard to convey stuff over the internet (unless you write a whole essay defining every word you use).
