Explanation:

Kurt Vonnegut's "Harrison Bergeron" is the story of the protagonist Harrison, a 14 year old youth is a handsome tall fellow who was handicapped due to the new laws by the government to make everyone equal, the beautiful made to wear masks and so on so as not to make the other feel inferior. The 'disabilities' are part of the daily lives of the people i the name of 'equality'.

It is the year 2081, and under the new Amendments 211, 212, and 213 to the Constitution, no one is supposed to be more superior or inferior to anyone. Equality is the common basis for living for all, and everything is being carefully monitored by the Handicapper General and his team who make sure that everyone is equal. So, the characters such as Hazel, Harrison, and George are also "burdened" with the weights to make them equal with the others. The given dialogue between George and Hazel shows that George had accepted the society's rules and does not even try to challenge them. By considering the weights as a part of him, he no longer thinks of it as a burden, but instead they are what made him who he is. The weigh is part of his being.
