Hi
I just wanted to say about the reading material regarding Fat people and doctors' feelings. In the medical world doctors are taught to behave in a certain way. In medical ethics classes it is taught how to deal with all the patients. It ranges any where from the different ways to approach Middle Eastern women to African American males to Middle Class Caucasian. Because there is a certain psychology that can be found in a group (whether we like it or not). So may be that article was about the Psychology of patients and how doctors can avoid hurting their feelings. Seriously contrary to the popular belief doctors are not blood sucking leeches and it takes a lot of work, dedication and time to get to that point. Majority of them do it out of the love for people and not for money. Seriously after at least 4 years of grueling undergrad, then med school and then a residency (which equals slave labor) and piles of loan. They don't do it just so they could be jerks and hurt everyone's feelings. So please lets not hate them for telling the truth.
