No problem man, your writing and content are great.

You're right about Japan. I can't remember the last time I saw a truly fat Japanese person- at least, during my time in Asia. Over here it's a different story, of course. Fat shaming is definitely a powerful tool and should be used at every opportunity- both on men and women, but mostly on women, simply because fat is far more unsightly on them.

And thanks for the linkage Didact.
