Well, the answer to that one, GC and Prudence, is that NO PERSONAL INSULTS have been made.

Saying that a person who is fat would be more attractive if they were thin is not a personal insult. No one has been named in an insulting manner, and no group has been insulted in a derogatory matter.

If you disagree with that assessment, perhaps an analogy would help: Saying fat people are less attractive than thin people is like saying gay people can't have babies. It's a generalization based on common sense fact, but is NOT a smear on that group. Just becuase there are exceptions to those generalizations does not make them inapplicable, nor does it make them cross the line into personal insults. No one has said that fat people are evil or stupid or insane.
