Do you guys agree with the body positivity/ fat acceptance movement?

Question

Because I don't think everyone has to be skinny but supporting obesity has to stop somehow.

Answer

Its not about supporting obesity or people engaging in unhealthy behaviors. It's about accepting people for how they look and recognizing that the way their body looks is none of your business and not yours to comment on. It's about not harassing plus sized people.

Answer

It bothers me when I see a plus size, obese family pushing a full cart of junk and paying with foodstamps while I'm on a 50$ food budget for the week.

Answer

Body positivity and obesity acceptance aren't the same thing

Answer

My dads obese he has high cholesterol high blood pressure severe trype two diabetes glaucoma and the list goes on ... being obese is NOT OK

Answer

I do feel like some young people or not really young too will give up and eat anything or over eat "just because" everyone accept it. Or because they make it seems the best way to be. It almost seems like a new trend. Filming yourself eating a lot of crap, gain weight and dance in front of camera and saying beauty come in all sizes. Let's be real. A person can weight like 300+ pounds and we would say "don't change, don't listen to people, beauty come in all sizes, you don't have to be thin etc".

Answer

It's not, "hey give yourself every health condition under the sun because why not?" It's realizing and understand that sometimes it is medical conditions or medications that cause people to be overweight. It's also realizing that even if it isn't, it's no ones business and doesn't give people the right to be a dick to them. It's also important to understand that skinny does not equal healthy.

Answer

I really don't have an opinion. I agree with half and kindly disagree with SOME. Yes I agree we shouldn't shame people for being plus sized etc. but there are some saying that they're perfectly healthy and saying being 100+ lbs over weight won't make their living in the long run shorter. I myself am overweight I used to be 310 lbs at the age of 12.. now I'm about 210 and still trying to loose to become more healthy and happier. I was diagnosed with pseudotumor cerebri two years ago and they kindly told me that it can be from stress and me being so over weight. I decided to change that and my condition has gotten better. I myself don't judge people, I don't care how people look. I think everyone can wear a bikini like girl rock that shit 👌🏻👌🏻 but there's some extent to the movement or just some people in the movement who are putting a bad taste in my mouth, if that makes sense?
