Are you seriously comparing to being tall or short, to being fat?

My point is that any circumstance where you can logically use overweight or plus sized, you can also use fat. If you use fat to intentionally criticise or insult someone, you are going to cause offensive. But that is literally no different than if you use overweight, plus sized, or heavy for the same purpose. You're going to cause offence.
Wow you are tall! Wow you are fat!
