I am so tired of seeing these posts on Facebook. This is not empowering, this is just another form of body shaming. There's nothing wrong with being skinny, or average, or thick or even overweight. The thing that is wrong is that people put down other body types to make themselves feel better. Some people can't help being thin, some people can't help being thick, some people are happy with their weight, and other's aren't. The simple fact is that if it isn't your body it isn't your business. Stop putting down people for being "fat" and making assumptions about them. Stop saying "REAL WOMEN HAVE CURVES!" we are all real women, being a certain shape has nothing to do with it.
If you have a problem with your weight then do your best to work through it in a healthy way. Stop throwing shade at people who don't look like you. It just makes YOU look like an asshole. Everyone is beautiful, the fact that we're alive an have these bodies is amazing. So stop tearing people down. You don't like it when people make you feel badly about how you look so what on earth are you doing reposting these images with negative messages on them?
Can I get an amen?

ReplyDeleteAmen! I agree 110%! Have you ever noticed that when someone is a family member or close friend you stop even noticing what they really look like? It's because you have reached a level of relationship with that person that transcends our outer shells. You love the person not their skin or the amount of adipose tissue under the skin.
