Put-downs and comebacks for large people to use.

Have you ever been insulted because of your size, and felt as if you had nothing to say in reply?

Below is a collection of put-downs to use against ignorant thinner people and children/teens. Knowing a quick reply that you can use to cut these people down will improve your self-confidence, and will make you feel better. ( and them feel smaller and stupid )

If you have a favourite put-down that's really effective, even if vulgar or crude, send it to contact[at]outsizeclothes.com. = replace [at] with @ and put "Put-down" as the subject
