Chinese parents are shitlords. I don't know if this applies to all East Asians, but a lot of Chinese parents hate fat people. In China it's completely socially acceptable to point out that someone (especially a family member) is fat, because they see it for what it is - fat. Not "beautiful", "fierce", "curvy", or whatever bullshit American lardasses spew out to deceive themselves because they're too lazy to lose weight. No - you're fat, it's ugly, it's unhealthy, and you need to change that instead of bitching about it. Not to mention you wouldn't be able to fit into the super-tiny clothes they sell in China.  Back when I was slightly overweight, I would resent my parents for yelling at me because of my weight, but now I'm infinitely glad they did. Think of how many fatties in China have lost weight just because of their parents, and then think of the fat-enabling "manners" rampant in America, where even the word "fat" is a bad word that "triggers" lardasses. Seriously, if that manages to trigger you and/or make you cry, you need mental help, not "social justice". Chinese parents insult their kids about their weight because they know their kids will not take it as a personal offense, but a reminder to eat less, exercise, and watch their figures.
