Personal Space

The personal space around a human being is actually a cylinder with the central axis running somewhere through the neck down to the groin and then the ground.

Oddly enough the radius of the cylinder is a fixed value and is not adjusted for fat. 

Indeed, certain fat people actually exceed their own radius of personal space!

In circumstances where this intrudes on the personal space of others they simply learn to adopt a disingenuous pose of unawareness.

They do this even if they go the whole hog and intrude on someone’s actual physical space, say in economy on an aeroplane.

My unrepentant view; if you’re this fat, don’t fly if you can’t afford business class.
