I know this topic seens similar to that I created some months ago,but I'd like your opinion...
If you don't know Wall-E,here is a little part of the movie showing what I'm talking about:
I hope we will never end up like this!!!

Well played, sir.Before I answer your question, please change your profile picture.
Too crude.I can see why you would fear for this, if everyone goes fat, you won't have any muscular men to drool over, would you?

I agree with SG-1 with the added point that some people may choose to be fat. You know, because tastes change over the years.

Maybe everyone will be fat, but no one will know because they only meet in VR worlds.

1- It's a movie intended for all ages (if anyone dare says, "For kids", meet me and my friends in a dark alleyway later on tonight), there's little chance it's going to deconstruct the actual possibilities of what humanity would be like if we had such advanced technology that we wouldn't need to do any physical activities.
2- One of those possibilities is that we don't even have physical bodies anymore
3- Another is that we're all kept in tip top shape by technology, should one so choose
It's a matter of controlling hormones, nutrients, etc.
I'd hope that we would develop some kind of drug to keep us thin...
Maybe mentally, we're almost there, how often do people sit around and watch drivel on their computers today?
Physically no I don't think so, we've got fatties right now because of laziness and gluttony, we'll eventually develop something that keeps you thin muscular and healthy (And all of a sudden all the fat pride people will change their minds).
Plus Wall-E excluded the possibility of cyborgs and transhumanism.
