ITT: I will posit that gaining weight is a tragedy and not a premeditated act of evil.
Why would anyone wake up one day and think "yup, I'm going to make myself the target of ridicule for the rest of my life"? Did Michael Jackson willingly take the course of action that reduced his looks level? Similarly, why would an atheist living in the East decide to abandon religion? These are all situations where the consequences are deleterious for the individual, not unlike being fat.
What is the answer then? Genetic determinism.
tl;dr Being overweight is a genetic condition not unlike vitiligo or irreligiousness.
