Skinny/fit people

I have this crazy idea that everyone stops giving a flying jump in a rolling donut what other people MIGHT be saying and/or thinking about them and just worry about themselves. It'll never catch on, I know.

Your logic is no good here, madam.

Calling overweight people "fat" is harsh.

But....Everyone gets judged no matter what weight you are so you might as well get used to it and learn to love yourself because then it won't matter what other people think of you. Right?

lol this has gotten ridiculous. Just because I don't want to be "skinny"? I agree with uglyandold. It doesn't matter if people call me fat because it's something I'm working on. I still think it's a harsh word though. It doesn't matter who it's coming from.

That's silly, it's not an opinion when it's against her.

It's harsh, but talking down on others isn't. Gotcha.

Where in my posts have I said it isn't harsh? People can take offense to it if they want. I can see where others are coming from and I respect their opinions but I honestly didn't mean it to offend anyone. And I also wasn't trying to make myself better than anyone.

You flat out said that you prefer a more womanly curvy body than a little girl twig body. SO yea, that makes it seem like you're saying you're more womanly than others.

Also, you can't say something is harsh, right after you said something that's probably worse. How is it harsh to call someone fat, when they're fat? That's like saying it's harsh to call me a guy because I'm a guy.

My apologies! I'll see myself out.

Dirty looks? Maybe they were just squinting because they had sun in their eyes. Unless someone said something to you directly, I wouldn't assume they hate you. Maybe the "resting b*tch face" is just their normal look.

I said that's the kind of body I want and what I'm working towards. Right now I have a fat body and I'm oh so jealous of skinny people:laugh:

I would rather have a womanly body with curves in all the right places rather than a little girl twig body.

Yea, no idea where anyone could get the idea that you're saying a curvy body is more "womanly" than a skinny body.

Not all "fat" people are jealous of skinny people. I personally never want to be skinny..I think it's unattractive. I would rather have a womanly body with curves in all the right places rather than a little girl twig body.

not all "skinny" people look like little girl twig bodies, for the record. But, I do agree that not all bigger people are jealous of smaller people. I have never once assumed people were jealous of me.

Good:
"I want to keep some boobs and booty and not get to a low body fat percentage. This is the look I prefer."

Bad:
"I want to keep my curves and don't want to be a skinny twig girl."


This first is stating a preference in a way that doesn't insult those that do not fit your preference. The second insults women who are naturally thing and don't have much in the boobs and booty department.

Instead of getting defensive that someone has pointed this out to you, try to open your mind and learn. I myself had been guilty of "body shamming" before I really realized I was doing it. I now try to be better.

But you did exactly that - you don't like being called fat don't call people with a different body type than you "little girl twig bodies" its just as harsh and mean as calling someone fat. If its not right for someone to do it to you, then its not right for you to do it to someone else. You are perfectly capable of saying "I love my body. I love my curves" without putting down someone else because they are not built the same way as you.

That's true. But like I said I didn't mean to offend anyone but I can see I did and if I could delete my posts I would. Thank you for your respectful comment. It's much more preferable to the sarcasm everyone has come at me with.

I'm all for loving curves! Loving all bodies! I think we don't realize what we say sometimes.

How about nobody giving anybody else disparaging looks or remarks due to their appearance?

Oh trust me, I will learn from this.

Awesome. There you go. The world is a slightly better place thanks to the meanies at MFP.

Try not t feel bad. Lets move on.

I know when I was big I would stare at skinny people and wonder what they tasted like dipped in bbq sauce....

bahahaha!!

Whale whale whale what do we have here?

A delusional fat person who thinks people with a lower bf can't have curves, oh gawd pls stahp.
