No one has said that fat people are evil or stupid or insane.

The difference is that one of these is a biological fact and one of these is subjective opinion turned into a broad generalization. Two men cannot naturally make a baby. Neither can two women. Saying fat people are less attractive is not based on common sense fact. It's based on your and some other people's personal opinion. And in our culture, saying someone is unattractive can be as insulting as saying they are evil or stupid or insane.
