I think this really needs to be said.
I’ve seen this everywhere, including on a lot of fat/body positive blogs. This, in my opinion, is more rampant than the shaming of skinny women and might even equal the shaming of fat women. It’s a bit tied in with skinny shaming though:
THE SHAMING OF ANOREXIC WOMEN.
Can we please stop?
Don’t call yourself body positive and then snark and about how ugly skin and bones are. It’s all very well if you include a disclaimer that you don’t mean naturally skinny women… So then who do you mean? Women with a legitimate mental disorder who desperately need help and acceptance rather than shaming?
Seriously, it’s very hypocritical. Let’s all stop making disparaging comments about anorexic women.
What’s wrong with this picture?
Oh that’s right. It’s not okay to make fun of anyone! Except skinny girls, of course.
