Fat women simply get less rejection because men aren't all that fussy when it comes to fukking women. Hardly something to boast about. And these men who give these women their egos are 100 percent to blame for that. But in my opinion people both men and women, have even less respect for fat women than they do for fat men. There are plenty of fat men in very powerful positions in business for instance,in politics. If the fat man is tall as well people will still have some respect for him if he has a good job especially.
I still think in this day and age, people expect a man to be successful in multiple ways, if a woman can't even control her own body they have zero respect.
