There seems to be an on reading amount of articles on skinny vs fat bashing. One side attempts to become body positive but unfortunately it sometime comes by (wrongly) taking shots at the other. Ideally we need to all A) learn to have more compassion for ourselves and our bodies B) learn to be compassionate towards other human beings and C) stop listening to and start protesting against the monstrous media and marketing agencies that are making money off trying to make all of us feel terrible about our bodies - seriously burn that shit down :( This is one of the few articles Ive been overall happy with for addressing both sides of this thin vs fat body battle (even though we are on the same side, its the media f@&$kers we should go after) that I think addresses both sides reasonably. But Im definitely curious to hear what any of my socially conscious friends have to say about it. And this is not just a women issue, body shaming absolutely affects men as well, so dont let the feminism source discourage you - men have to deal with the same media monster telling them their body is not good enough so they can sell you crap.
