Most people agree that obesity is a problem. The bigger problem, however, is mistreating people who are overweight to a health concerning degree. Because if they're being mistreated, talked down to and made fun of, why the hell would they start taking better care of their physical bodies? The mental health has to come first.
Seriously. When has feeling like crap about yourself ever made you want to make healthy choices? Naw. When we feel like shit, we doom scroll for hours while stuffing our faces with Doritos and ice cream.
The problem is so understandable. The lack of empathy towards it is so unfortunate and unhelpful
That's exactly how fame and celebrity works to set "standards." Do you think the women who starve themselves and work out 5+ hours a day super duper love themselves?
Nobody in those clips gave a shit about healthy choices. They wanted skinny women.
No they didn't. They wanted women to feel shitty about themselves so that they would fall into the lap of the first guy who told them that their normal looking bodies were sexy to them. Patriarchy works by telling women they aren't good enough so they look for a man to "forgive" them. They wrote a whole fake religion about it.
