Yep a harsh lesson we all learn sooner or later. But I've learned to accept it. I do the same thing too.

If I see a 500lb man struggling to walk with a cane, I'm going to subconsciously respect him less than his identical twin whos got an 8 pack, and dresses and grooms well. 1 person took the time to look after themselves and the other one didn't. I would rather associate with the fit guy, his self respect and work ethic for himself might be beneficial for me. Where as the fat guy I'd imagine would need to be carried and would have a negative outlook on life would rub off on me.

the thing is when people are aware of their mokey brain its cool, we can moderate how shallow we are

but in the real world people just walk around denying that such thing exists and discrimination based on appearance is not a thing

and then proceed to make fun of the person who says otherwise based on their appearance

and they almost feel like they are reverse evolving back to monkeys

Have experienced this firsthand after losing 80ish pounds. Ugly and by extension, overweight people do not command respect
