I'm tall and naturally thin and the focus on body positivity only relating to curvy figures can be upsetting - while I, of course, hate fat shaming and know that curvier girls do face much more scrutiny than thin girls, it's hard when comments like "real women have curves" and "bones are for dogs, meat is for men" are said and shared on social media without any argument. Those types of comments pretend to be all for body positivity, but they simply build up one group of women at the expense of another, and are just another way to make women feel like our bodies can never be good enough. I also think while the media focuses on skinny women as being 'perfect', they are always skinny women with curvy boobs, hips and a butt - which is just as unattainable for many thin women as suddenly having smaller boobs and a narrow waist is for curvier women. <br /><br />xCharlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08511134899018286108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2421677824367827284.post-42738031175529775802015-06-18T11:21:40.707+01:002015-06-18T11:21:40.707+01:00Great post, you hit the nail on the head.Great post, you hit the nail on the head.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05078202146118940939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2421677824367827284.post-42230711961979576972015-06-18T00:50:22.154+01:002015-06-18T00:50:22.154+01:00I hate body shaming, i get it all the time because...I hate body shaming, i get it all the time because im the "biggest" in my family! <br /><br />emyii90.blogspot.co.ukEmma's Grimoirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15811989228620970555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2421677824367827284.post-87252355730402132462015-06-17T21:31:29.840+01:002015-06-17T21:31:29.840+01:00Love this post.

I had to endure so much bs at school, I probably got more than anyone else did :/ I had people saying I was anorexic and that they only cared about my health lol yeh riiight. And had girls poke me in the stomach while getting changed for gym and tell me to eat a macdonalds. Not cool. One girl also told me to get boob reduction because 'big boobs look silly on skinny girls'. Oh ok thanks love. Everyone is different and should just not care so much how we look! I don't anymore haha! xo<br /><a href="http://amberluiselove.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">amber love</a>Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00964366310770990969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2421677824367827284.post-59837355766400759462015-06-17T15:56:22.860+01:002015-06-17T15:56:22.860+01:00I think you are completely right.
