Are Fat People Intelligent?
 

I have not met any yet (I'm not talking about intelligent in one field or area) but well rounded throughout life.

Bush isn't fat.

<-- fat and pretty fucking smart.

By no means does this make people who are nonfat intelligent...

This is pretty stupid.

Could you name a few... scientist, inventors, leaders, CEO's, etc. It's hard.

I heard that obese people have less blood pumped through their brain.

Sure, many are very smart.

Yes, having not met one smart fat person yourself surely is base for a hell of an accurate scientific study. :)

ask Sleezy

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh (careful I may be fat)

you got to get out more

I would say some lol

I think everyone should start posting their height and weight after each comment?

stupid question :1orglaugh

i don't think so. ill just believe on that if all the fat people i know, are intelligent

I'm fat , hung like a horse, intelligent and well liked in the office

Not sure exactly what the weight of a person has to do with their intelligence, but I would say that I know fat people that are smart as hell and I know some fat people that should be classified as miracles because they've made it as far as they have in life.

One thing has nothing to do with the other.

Einstein smoked cigarrettes, did that make him stupid?

I don't know any fat people who start posts with

yo!!

so fat bastards seem more intelligent than you.

here you go :http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=1841989

yo... :pimp

You are confused. I am not saying that fat people don't earn large incomes.

" I'm not talking about intelligent in one field or area (that could make you millions of dollars), but well rounded throughout life."

It is obvious in most cases if you are overweight, that one area in life, you don't understand a lot about is regarding diet and exercise... which is pretty darn important IMO. What's the sense in making millions of dollars if you die from a heart attack at 35 years old (this just happened to a wealthy builder who lived in my neighborhood the newspapers said he was worth over 35 million) and yes he was overweight.

lolz .. I can feel for fat asses in the thread :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yeah there are some, but it maybe only be book smarts. Usually they are lacking in other areas of intelligence.

I read an article in the NEJM that says that obese people actually process information slower.

I know few people that are fat and very smart

Yes obviously an intelligent man (in one area) but not quite an example of a well-rounded human being. Would you wanna be him? you get all his money as well, is his physical conditioning and body... his discipline, habits and current health condition?

Makes you think... is the money worth it?

I also know plenty people that are fat and smart (but not well-rounded in all aspects of life).

Emil, great post :thumbsup

I have a lot of respect for shoemoney, because being fat was a lifestyle and he had the discipline to change his lifestyle.

I'm curious if you ask him... If he thinks he is now sharper and more advanced thinker after he change his lifestyle? What would he say?

I'm not sure if I can define very many well-rounded individuals in modern society, let alone attempt to do so if limited to a specific body shape.

:2 cents:

Dude I am very content with myself and do not dwell or envy other people's wealth or success.

I have my own mesures of success and have set my own goals.

Thing is it's not how you look or how your wallet looks. It's how you live/run your life and if you are happy with it. :thumbsup

I am overweight and this is another goal i set myself and so far happy on the way I am wokring at it as well.

For most webmasters here:

Intelligent = Money

But yo!! .. since you are talking about well-rounded man ... how someone is assumed to prove that a fat guy is well rounded? We all can know the status/money/achievements of big guys .. but how the hell we know how he deals with his children? Or how good he is to his friends? How much is his IQ level and stuff?

Frankl.... no
Carneg... no
Rockefell... no
Edison... no
Ford... no
Newto... no
Einstei... no
Yunus... no
Moore... YES. But... lets see now... ummm.

Yeah, whatever!

That's kind of my point... you would deftly have to know this person on a personal level in order to make that assessment fairly. In general (from my personal experience) when people are out of balance in one aspect of their life. It seems to roll over into other areas.

No but he is religious, which is probably even worse.

Just to clarify... none of my comments were directed toward you...
