2) How is that pathetic? For someone who once tried to clock me for being uneducated about feminism you are misogynistic as hell.
3) No, in a society where being skinny is the norm, what is accepted and what is expected... no it is not a real thing. |
1. Agree to disagree.
2. I'm not misogynistic at all. She wanted plastic surgery, okay. She doesn't need to shame skinnier women because of it and make them feel like crap about themselves.
3. Being skinny is most certainly, especially in the US, not the norm. I'm skinny myself and I get put down constantly for being skinny, same with my sisters and friends.
We live in a society where you can approach someone and say "OMFG you're so freaking skinny. WTH, go eat something. WOW. You look like you're gonna blow away in the wind"
But if you say 'OMFG you're so freaking fat. WTH. Stop eating. WOW. You look bigger than a schoolbus" it's not acceptable and looked at as disgusting.
Just cause being skinny is "desirable", doesn't mean that gives anyone the right to bring those people down. Skinny people deal with issues of their own just like overweight people.
