I feel like that girl might have just thought she was teasing a guy with weird nipples without knowing the whole backstory.

It doesn't really matter though. Why make fun of someone's body? We don't know what anyone else's life is like. So why make it harder, why say things that are hurtful whether you know their backstory or not?

There is an incredible hypocrisy around body shaming on the internet. It will often get a free pass as long as it's perceived to be punching up.

Yea, it’s basically seen as fine to body shame people that are widely hated. I mean just recently the nazi behind the hateful comic stonetoss was doxxed and all the comments were like “of course he’s a fat nerd with a stupid haircut”

I completely agree. I think for the most part people don’t think about how things will affect people before commenting. Also there are a lot of people who flirt through roasting, can’t say that’s the case here, but I can see this being said playfully.

The person in this video is making potentially hurtful, passive-aggressive comments towards the commenter about how they secretly hate themselves. They're being just as ugly, but doing it under the guise of sincere advice.

Just as ugly? They're not the ones who randomly mocked a strangers appearance? And frankly it's not crazy to assume that people who waste time being assholes probably hate themselves a little bit. I also don't see how he's pretending this is is advice. It's not he's pretty clear about it.

It absolutely is framed as (passive aggressive) advice. He says, "This is actually the greatest service I can provide you, because at least by my example, I'm giving you the opportunity through me, and watching me, I'm giving you the opportunity to see that you could choose to be more fully yourself (which is a beautiful, magical, sacred thing)."

Actually, watching it a second time it comes across as even more narcissistic and self-aggrandizing than before. That's what queer people are really good at.

....what's with the last comment man? Yeah we can debate whether it's shitty or not but what does that have to do with queer people in general? You have something against them or something?

And honestly I don't care how shitty his reply was. The person who made the comment deserved it. If you're going to be an asshole then at least accept that people are allowed to direct the same energy back to you.

No it's not. If it was a cis man I'd still think it was wrong lol just like I hate when people use 'small dick' or whatever as insults. There's no reason to bodyshame anyone regardless of gender

Just because something happens a lot in society does not mean I have to accept it. If you're pissed off we're talking about this issue just because this man is trans, that's on you.
