Ah, walked back to implied racism, thats a good start.
You will find a perfect textbook example of a racist in Abraham Lincoln. I do not believe blacks are inferior as a race which is shown by the fact that I know they have the capacity to change their health circumstances while you kids seem to feel thats just not so and therefore we must feel sorry for the poor dears. Slow metabolism is real but rare and nearly always treatable. And as for big boned... few of us have so much as seen an actually big boned person. If you are overweight, just accept it. To thine own self be true.
The CDC says a majority of Americans range from overweight to obese. Those are pretty damning statistics. Does your fried chicken comment refer to other Americans also? I never hear that particular insult directed to them.
Obesity and Overweight
(Data are for the U.S.)
- Percent of adults age 20 years and over who are obese: 35.9% (2009-2010)
- Percent of adults age 20 years and over who are overweight, including obesity: 69.2% (2009-2010)

Genetics. I take neither credit nor blame.
