Should Fat People Be Given More Accommodations? - Hear me out...

We've all had to deal with it. You're on a bus, or a plane, or a train. You're minding your own business, probably playing around with your phone, when suddenly a huge warm fleshy blob which smells slightly of old cheese comes squeezing down the isle and oozes into the seat next to you.
Disgusted, you slide aside to give the blob more space, and end up cramming yourself into a six-inch area while Gargantua the Vast takes up both the seat they're in, and half of the seats on either side of them.

Many have suggested a solution to this problem. The obvious one is to not let fatties ride planes, but that's not always practical. Another solution has been suggested by making land whales buy several seats to accommodate their bulk.
I propose a different idea. Instead we should build extra large "fat only" seating. While at first glance, such an arrangement may seem like giving the lard butts what they want, but hear me out... the fat only section would quickly become a badge of shame.
It's basically the same as handicap seating, but much more shameful and gross. It would be in the worst parts of the buses, planes, and theaters. Comedians would mock it constantly, and fat people in planes and movie theaters would be restricted to certain, highly visible spaces, where people can look at them and judge them. Their friends and family would also have to make accommodations if they want to sit by their fat albatross, adding additional levels of shame upon the tubby loser.
They'd also be out of the hair of normal people, and would be effectively classified as abnormal in all areas of public society. We've been letting them feel "normal" for far too long. It's time to let them know they're freaks, incapable of associating with others in public.

So, should we make fat-only arrangements, or do you think there's too much room for shameless fatasses to abuse the idea?

Does a noose qualify as exercise equipment?
Yes because they need to lift themselves first.
And no, fatties shouldn't be given extra accommodation because they chose to get fat and they cost the NHS millions as they can't put the fork down. Make them learn the hard way.
Obesity is not normal and shouldn't be our problem to deal with.

Here's a interesting post from a FPH thread on /fit/ awhile ago.
You have much to learn about how broken the UK benefit system is.

Two typical families with 3 kids, both with a single full-time earner and a stay-at-home parent. In family A, the sole earner is a university graduate who makes £50k/year. In family B, the sole earner makes minimum wage (£15.2k). This is their financial breakdown:

Family A: £50k/year works out as £33,494 after tax, student loan repayments and 5% pension contribution. They also qualify for £3,523 housing benefits (in London) and £2,501 child benefit.

So their total net annual income is £39,518.

Family B: £15k/year works out as £13,650 after tax. They also get the following benefits from the government, all tax free:

£10,073 in tax credits (child tax credit and working tax credit)

£12,120 in housing benefit

£2,501 child benefit

So their total net annual income is: £38,344

(you can check the numbers here: www.entitledto.co.uk)

So once you have a few kids, earning £50k/year makes you about £1,200/year better off than having a minimum wage job, except that the minimum wagers will also qualify for extra things like subsidised rent in social housing, possible maintenance grants for their children at university, possibly free tuition at private schools, etc.

Salary doesn't really matter in the UK once you have children, everyone earns the same up to around £50k gross. Its housing wealth and family money that matter.
 
Shame was an idea once upon a time but after the 'body positivity' bullshit came about those people simply grew an ego to match their physical size.

The fatties have doubled down and doubled up. It's going to get even worse over time since the younger generations are going to be force-fed bullshit about their health being completely unrelated to their indoor hobbies and cake binges.
