EU LEADS US FOR MEN WITH WEIGHT PROBLEM


[+] ballot by herzog
created Wed Mar 16, 05

The proportion of overweight or obese men is higher in some European countries than it is in the United States, experts said yesterday in an analysis of Europeans' expanding girth.
The International Obesity Task Force estimated that Finland, Germany, Greece, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Malta have exceeded the United States figure of 67% for overweight or obese males.

The time when obesity was thought to be a problem on the other side of the Atlantic has gone by," said Mars Di Bartolomeo, Luxembourg's Minister of Health.

In Greece, 38% of women are obese, compared with 34% in the United States.

Is it now fair for americans to make fun of europeans for being fat lazy slobs? (you know, what they've been saying about americans for years)

yes, seems fair to me 6
No, there's a double standard here that shouldn't be overlooked 4
2 wrongs don't make a right 2

Never gives up telling people the truth they'd rather not hear.

Compare White Europeans to their American counterparts and you'll really be surprised.

There's a really funny ballot called "Why do Brits call Americans fat?" in which the American & brit users just keep yelling at each other. Recommend you check it out.

Ah who cares about useless name-calling. I didn't give a fuck about Euros calling Americans fat and Im sure most of them could care less if we call them fat. Good point though, Herzog, I think it actually points out indirectly that people base their judgements of others way too much on stereotypes.

Patriotic Americans aren't going to be outdone by a bunch of Europeans. I'm sure they'll start eating even more and become even more grossly obese. America Rules!

Soon, the Chinese will be fatter than the lot of you!
