Feeling less and less sorry for Tumblr right about now.

Humanity did not evolve on tropical beaches, and no ancestor of humans has ever ad blubber. The split occurred way before sea mammals.

fat was healthy in the early stages of our evolution, but then we came along, had to chase our meat, and be chased by meat. fuck off fatty.

If only the ape-like ancestors we evolved from were fucking aquatic mammals you'd really be on to something there, but we didn't.

I'll take my mildly webbed fingers over being fat any day of the week.

too bad most fatties don't swim.

No. No no no. You have blubber because you're fat. You are fat because you don't take care of yourself. Not because of a convenient gene.

I don't agree with the post or you. People can have excess fat for a number of reasons, and some people (1/2)
KleptoKea
(not all) ARE genetically predisposed to converting energy into fat stores quicker than others. Get off your high horse. (2/2)

To be fair, it's not saying that it's healthy to be fat in our current habitat, just theorizing on its application by earlier humans

So many things wrong with this. So, so many.

This is bullshit. Our fat serves no real warming purpose because of how close it is to the dermis.

Idk, having been pretty much always thin to athletic build with a few periods of laziness, I'm colder when I have less fat.

As humans our heat is almost entirely dependent on muscle, maybe when you have more fat you also happen to have more muscle?
