I feel like the world doesn't take overweight people seriously... CMV?

Sure, there are plenty of successful people who are overweight, but their weight is 90% of the time something that people will bring up. A good example is Melissa McCarthy. Everyone loves her and thinks she's great, but she will forever be cast as the "funny fat girl", same with Rebel Wilson. If they were to lose weight, they could be taken more seriously in Hollywood. Governor Chris Christie, regardless of what decisions he's making for the state of New Jersey, people are constantly reporting about his being overweight. If he was average-sized, people would focus on what he's doing as governor. I don't know, I'm overweight myself and I feel like I'll never be taken seriously in the work force or on the dating scene. Change my view, please.

People see weight as something that all people can change through work, and thus (sometimes wrongly, sometimes not) associate it with laziness and "slackers". Thus, a successful person like Bill Gates could never be overweight no sir that mother fucker has to work hard saving the world. But Chris Christie? Why i bet he just sits in his big soft governors chair all day and aint never had an honest day out on the campaign trail with us plebs.
