This happened last month. My wife, our 6 year old child, myself, SIL and MIL went on two week long cruise. We were all having a good time, day 4 we were kicked off. The 5 of us were climbing the stairs to go down the water slides. About half way up, my wife started getting out of breath so I slowed down with her. For context, my wife is overweight. Not that it matters, it’s never bothered me. I love her the way she is, she’s the same size now as when we met.
There was a family behind us, clearly getting irritated that we were moving slower than their expectations. We both ignored them, the stairs were too narrow to let them pass. We got to the top, my wife stopped for a split moment. That’s when things got nasty. The man/father/husband with the disgruntled family said my wife was too fat to be going down the slides anyways. He cracked a joke about her getting stuck in the tube and then getting the ship docked to cut her own. My wife started crying, I was livid.
I went completely ape shit on the guy, it got very heated. The staff had to intervene, we were escorted back down the stairs. Our daughter and my SIL had already gone down the slides together. But my MIL witnessed the entire thing. Once we got downstairs, my SIL noticed something was wrong. She heard what happened and said, “What about the guy that started it, is he getting escorted away too?” Nope, just us. They put the 5 of us in a room, docked the ship shortly after and we were escorted off with our belongings.
I filed a complaint with the cruise ship, requested a partial refund. I clearly stated I understand my actions were a bit over the top, but I don’t understand how the other family wasn’t removed as well for instigating the incident. Yesterday I received a letter, I’m banned from the cruise line…indefinitely. My MIL made the point that the man was likely intimidated by my size. He was a bit overweight himself (freaking hypocrite). But I’m not overweight, I have a muscular build so the wimp cried wolf that I sized him up.
But anyways, I don’t feel bad for sticking up for my wife. I feel bad for getting us kicked off our vacation. Everyone had been looking forward to this since Christmas, and I feel like I completely ruined their vacation, everyone paid their own way so I feel especially bad.

I remember when I was in the USA with my parents and there was this fat woman who looked ridiculous in her clothes and we said in german "how can you let yourself go like that, look at that fat woman etc."

This woman turns and says in German "I understand you".
