>Sure.  But say we are having a discussion about someone...and one of the things you use as a criticism against that person is their fatness.  Is it unfair if I cringe a little as a fat person?  I mean, you are not talking about me, but the fact that you consider fatness in this other person an example of what's wrong with them...is it really unjust that it would sting me a bit?<

Then you need to deal with your issues of fatness, (just like I do).  But what if they are saying “He/she is so fat/phat”, (you can’t * hear* the difference?  Obviously you can be offended, that is your choice, but the person saying it isn’t responsible for that.
