I’ve been seeing this first picture going around on facebook and it’s driving me UP A WALL.

This, folks, is what we call BODY SHAMING. The minute you start putting down one body type in favor of another, you are NOT HELPING THINGS. In today’s society, when EVERYONE is being told constantly (400+ times a day, and that’s a proven fact) that they’re not good enough or they need to change something to be ‘hot’ or ‘sexy’, you cannot possibly blame people for wanting to change their bodies. You have no way of judging why ANY of those women look the way they do. Some people naturally have bodies that are that thin. And yes, some people starve themselves to look like that. But shaming someone for what is quite literally a disease is the lowest of the low. Regardless, no body type is any more or less ‘hot’ than ANY other body type. ALL bodies are good bodies, ALL of us are fighting a hard battle. Don’t think for one moment that you have the right to judge anyone. You wouldn’t like it if the scrutiny was on you.

Love,

fucking finally someone is smart! 

The point of the original picture is so that women with curvy figures aren’t ashamed of their weight. Sure, it could seem like their putting anorexia or bulimia down, but damn I would say that’s a damn good thing to be against. Eating disorders of all sorts stem from insecurity. Being insecure is nothing to be ashamed of, but if you knew someone who had an eating disorder would you really say “kudos! You must be proud!” no, you’d try and save them from their own insecurities because it could kill them and is unhealthy.

I’m a curvy bitch and there have been tons of times I’ve been considered fat and felt ashamed because I wasn’t skinny. It took me 17 years to realize I have a damn good body and a great ass. And when I first saw the original picture I felt great cause I realized there are people who see my body type as beautiful instead of fat.
