It does help to know the context here. I certainly agree that we should not treat overweight people unkindly. However, being overweight is hazardous to the health of the individual, so it is not loving to pretend that is a good thing just to make someone feel better.
Certainly, we should be kind to everyone, but we should not lie or pretend that something is true when it is not. We should be kind to them and help them in anyway that we can. Making someone feel good about themselves for a moment, if the eventual consequences are bad, is not kind or loving.
I also agree that just because something is socially acceptable doesn’t make it right.
And of course, you are right that many people are way too obsessive about being thin. This also is not healthy.

Though I completely disagree with the premise the speaker seems to be basing this question on....it sounds that they are asking, do we want to live in a society where people are looked down upon or thought of as less than human just because they do not follow socially acceptable behavior?

@designcc She might try to make a point that the world is so hard on bigger size people. And people are crazy about being slim, then over-sized people seem to be less acceptable. Here the" socially acceptable behavior" refers to stay in a good body shape.

@designcc LOL thanks. It's good to have your answer that means a lot to me. Even though I am not over-sized, I see things in a different way, that is, sometimes the society is hard on English learning. They can get down quickly by all sorts of mistakes or fears they face. Anyways, the key is to learn&practice and build self-confidence. 🤣🤣Sorry being a bit chatty. Your quick response blow my mind. And you make my day by your open-minded answer. I appreciate it.
