Rant time. Please do not bother reading if you cannot debate intellectually and just turn it into a trollfest.

Something that is really bothering me lately.

‘Big women are real women’

‘No skinny chicks’

Or anything along those lines.

I mean, why? Why is that ok to say that? If I sat here and posted ‘Skinny girls are real girls’ and ‘Fat chicks are ugly’ people would be wanting to tear out my brain with a shark tooth necklace, or even their own finger nails.

I am 5’0 and I weigh 98bs. I am naturally skinny, and my bmi is the correct level for my age and height and weight. I do not undereat to maintain my size. I eat a healthy diet, only eating junk food on Saturdays and the only work outs that I do consist of biking and sometimes yoga. So I would say, all in all, I am a pretty healthy human being. Yet, I have to come on tumblr and see pictures of girls who are big telling me that I do not count as a real woman? Fuck off.

Anorexia and being skinny are two entirely different things and I hate that the slogans BBW are using are making it seem as if being skinny means you’re anorexic. As a feminist, obviously a number one issue for me is the media’s take on beauty and how it promotes eating disorders and insecurity in women. So of COURSE I am fully supportive of girls who are carrying extra pounds feeling beautiful. 

But, I am not supportive of the girls who sit there and tell me my body type is ugly and real men go for women with curves. It is so infuriating that it entirely makes the BBW lose their argument which would be 100% valid if they didn’t include those patronizing and bitchy remarks about skinny girls.

The health risks of being overweight are unavoidable. So unless you shot out of your mother’s vagina at 22stone then you honestly count as overweight. Being overweight damages knees and joints, it restricts breathing and your heart becomes weaker. If you struggle for breath when walking up steps, you are not beautiful. Simple as that.

Unhealthy bodies are NOT attractive. Promoting anorexia is disgusting so why is promoting overweight bodies suddenly beautiful? 

Being underweight does as much damage to your body as being overweight, your body literally eats itself, you get damaged hair and nails and you pretty much erode away.

I’m sorry that this topic is probably very sensitive to a lot of people but I am disappointed with women always targetting other women’s body images to make themselves feel accepted.

PSH SKINNY GIRLS? REAL WOMEN ARE BIG.

I’m pretty sure, as long as your lungs are in good condition, you can stand up without your joints aching like fuck, you don’t overeat and you don’t undereat and you have a vagina and the mental state of a female. You are a real fucking woman. 

And unless you have a disgusting personality, no love in your heart, no loyalty and no substance, then you are FUCKING BEAUTIFUL.

Rant over. Feel free to discuss.
