Sometimes it just hits me how female bodies never ever fucking can catch a break and it's so exhausting.

I was gonna say, after her miscarriage that must have been hard.

I wish it just wasn't a thing and people didn't feel the need to comment either way, but I know that's unrealistic. I probably even contribute to it by thinking people look great when they lose weight.

I'm going through a real slump with body image atm. It's off the back of two pictures of me I didn't know were taken in the last month or so being whatsapped to me and I've just gotten really bad.

I think through lockdown it was easy to avoid thinking about it because I have very few mirrors in my apartment and my mind was concerned with other things, but now here we are.

I'm hoping summer will cheer me up a bit and going out to exercise will encourage me.

People were also really shitty to her when she was dating Channing Tatum, comparing her to Jenna Dewan.

People definitely shouldn't comment on other bodies unless it's very specific (like a friend who is actively making changes and has commented and invites comparisons bc they want to know if anyone else notices the gains they've been making in the gym or something).

I've been sucking in since I was three because my mom and other relatives consistently commented on my weight (my mom is the one who told me I should always suck in and since I was an actual child I took it literally). I'm just sitting on my couch alone in my apartment and I'm even sucking in right now. For no reason whatsoever. I lost weight during the pandemic due to stress/depression/anxiety and it's the ONLY thing my aunt comments on whenever she calls me. You think she'd have shut up about it the first time. I never respond ( ... )

My mom used to tell me when I was around 10-12 that if I practiced holding in my stomach muscles then they would eventually just stay that way and my stomach would be flat. I had hit a rapid growth spurt and was eating a lot to compensate for how conspicuous I felt, so I got chunkier than I wanted to be. I guess this was her way of trying to help so maybe she wasn’t being the worst, but looking back it seems a little effed up.

Around that same time, my redneck neighbor said “you got big” when I arrived at the door to hang out with her kids. I wasn’t even fat exactly, maybe 10 pounds overweight but you would’ve thought I was The Michelin Man for the way they talked about me.

"You got big" / "you've gained weight" / "look at your belly" is basically how the aunties greet you when they come to the US and I fucking hate it so much!! I can totally empathize and I'm sorry it happened to you. I absolutely do not know what the hell compels people to do that, I mean I never look at someone and promptly think to point out every physical difference since I saw them last ( ... )
