the truth is that if everyone weighed 400 pounds than everyone would be nomal because there would be nothing to compare it to as overweight
I disagree. If everyone was 400 pounds and could not lose the weight, than yeah, everyone would be normal. But people can get as small as 45 pounds or smaller even if it's not normal. What I'm saying is, if everyone was 400 pounds, and coul go below 400 pounds, then the 400 pounders would eventually become overweight, because I would imagine, that people would rather weigh 300 pounds and have less of a chance of dying of heart-attacks. I'm terrible at explaining things, but hopefully you get the point.

If the everyone was 400 pounds, then it would depend on other factors. Gravity could be one. Weight is merely how hard gravity is pushing down on us.

If EVERYONE was just born 400 pounds, then it would be normal, if nobody fluxuated, and satyed at 400 pounds then it would be normal, but that isn't to say it is overweight.

Everybody remember:

ALL THINGS ARE RELATIVE.

And that's all that needs to be said.

If everyone weighed 400 pounds, and then people became 45 pounds they would be anorexic. Also this isn't a dbate about the physical aspects of concepts such as heart disease or results. It's about relativity. Do you considers elephants fat?

And Taurus, stop claiming i'm spamming your precious thread by having the opinion that this is a pure philosophical debate that you are making complex with algebra. We're beyond the time of Pythagoras where everything can be written in maths.

if we were talking about normal people on earth if everyone weighed 400 pounds then yes they would be over weight because the human body's optium weight is at most 300 pounds

unless everyone was like 10 feet tall then everyone on earth would be overweight if they all weighed 400 pounds

being overweight means that u are over the weight limit that the normal body is to be healthy

there is no comparing to the rest of the people in being overweight

age, and height and sex all play apart in determaning the body's ideal weight range

just because everyone is 400 pounds doesnt suddenly mean the body is healthy at that weight


and if only x and y exist and x is positive then y wouldnt be negitive unless it was the polar opposite of x

simply because one thing is positive doesnt mean the other is negitive unless it is the opposite of the other thing

if y was lacking everything that made x positive then it would indeed be negitive but if it wasnt then it wouldnt be negitive
