No, it's not. If you applied this logic, you would just go around telling fat people that they're fat. Do you think that's actually helpful and "the greatest gift" you can give to a fellow man?
Honestly, what a delusional and out of touch response. I pity you if that's what your childhood role models taught you.

A fat person most likely already knows that they're fat, so doing this again is redundant; a statement like "you're fat" is also usually emotionally loaded, turning this into a weapon of verbal aggression. Are you sure that I am the one being delusional here?
