feels like we got matching wounds but… it’s a heavy debate for as long as body shaming and beauty standards have existed. We are taught to believe that one body type is more ideal than the other. It is impossible to fit into these shapes when human bodies aren’t made to be one and the same. I am skinny. I am thin. Yet, I don’t fit into these standards at all, and neither do millions of people who either fall short or have too much to ever fit into this cookie cutter, and if we don’t fit into that mold, we are bound to be shamed and called names. So many can attest to being constantly bullied because they’re “boney” or that they “look like a skeleton.” So many have expressed the toll on their mental health these names have subjected them into. So many have come out crying for help because people just won’t stop pointing out that they look like a “door”. When will the stigma around mental health ever cease when a whole demographic continues to be ignored? One side’s struggle does not negate the existence of the other. It was never a competition over who gets to be validated and who doesn’t. We often forget that these struggles exist at all because of, again, society and its standards, not because of people you see everyday. Fat shaming is real. Skinny shaming is also real. They are not the same, and they never were. They were never equal nor are they supposed to be. My channel is not just about empowering skinny people, but all body types. I hope you’ll be kind to yourself today, and to others as well. love youuu🫶 #beautystandards #bodyimage #bodyshaming #skinnyshaming #bodypositive #bodypositivity
