Why did you do this to this poor negress, White Man?  Couldn't you have simply left her in peace?  Why did you make her fat?

Just when you thought maybe there could possibly be something for which Blacks and other non-Whites are responsible for, you learn that White racism is in fact the cause of obesity among whinorities. So sayeth Rutgers university, where everything is completely scientific.

Blacks and other oppressed people of color see “hurtful messages” against them and they lose their desire to stay healthy, just start eating cake and drinking soda all day long.

How dare you, White Man?

CNS News:

“Rutgers-led research finds that exposure to hurtful messages might diminish motivation to lose weight,” an article about the research posted on Rutgers’ website said.

“Many Americans need extraordinary willpower to avoid becoming obese – or to slim down if they already weigh too much,” the Aug. 25 article stated.

The research project was led by Luis Rivera, an experimental psychologist at Rutgers, who concluded the messages that suggest some groups are “inferior” make it harder for them to care about their health.

“When you are exposed to negative stereotypes, you may gravitate more toward unhealthy foods as opposed to healthy foods,” said Rivera, whose study appears in the Journal of Social Issues. “You may have a less positive attitude toward watching your carbs or cutting back on fast food, and toward working out and exercising.”

According to the National Institutes of Health, obesity rates are significantly higher among members of several minorities – including Hispanics – than for the general adult population, the article said in a photo caption.

Rivera found that the Latinos he studied were significantly more likely than whites to agree that negative stereotypes commonly used to describe Hispanics applied to them. That suggested to Rivera that “somewhere in their heads they are making the connection that the stereotype is Latino, I am Latino, and therefore I am the stereotype.”
