Original Note:
NNN OP is sharing opinion about how sizes of bodies have changed drastically since the 60s, and they have. “Fat” is not a medical classification, it is a descriptor. Obesity is up dramatically from the 60s, from 13% to 43%+. https://usafacts.org/articles/obesity-rate-nearly-triples-united-states-over-last-50-years/#:~:text=In%20the%20early%201960s%2C%20roughly,obesity%20rate%20closer%20to%2043%25. https://www.bmj.com/company/newsroom/substantial-increase-in-body-weight-since-1960s-due-to-interplay-between-genes-and-environment/
