Burly Boy Bias
A.K.A. Big Man Discrimination
feel free
to read these and relate. If you're not a Burly Boy, read below, take a look
in the mirror and reflect on any of these you may have done.
It's when you order a meal and are told “That might not be enough food”
It's when you order 2 appetizers for your table of 6, and the waiter doesn't bring any plates to share it
It's when drive through employees say “what else” when you’re done ordering
It's when the server says "I'll leave the menu with you in case you want anything else" after you're done ordering
It's when your girlfriend says my mom made a lot of food because she thinks you're a good eater
It's when you buy a shirt that says athletic build and it fits you like a crop top
It's when the captain of the boat asks you to move to the front of the back
It's when coworkers try to arm wrestle you at the company outing
It's when the window and aisle seat passengers death stare you as you're walking bye, manifesting that you don't have the middle seat
It's when you hear your coworker sigh* when you're the last 2 available to partner up for a team bonding physical activity
It's when the grocery bagger doesn't ask if you need help outside
It's when random strangers show you their ID when you're standing outside of the bar cuz they think you're the bouncer
It's when other guys try to give you overly firm handshakes when first meeting you
It's when you're only asked to be the base of a chicken fight in the pool
It's when the term big n beautiful only applies to women
It's when you get a massage and the therapist decides to use the force of Zeus based on your size
It's when you get called aggressive at company bowling for trying to win
It’s when you have to bring your own food on planes because pretzels aren't enough
It’s when the waiter tells you that might not be enough food, and uses their hands to represent the size of the meal
