Can Body Positivity be Destructive?

Question

Some people believe that body positivity can be bad for people who are over or under weight.  That's not to say that they support asshole comments to people and straight out cruelty but that being over positive can be harmful to people who should think about gaining/losing weight.

Answer

For me, body positivity means feeling comfortable and confident in your body, regardless of beauty standards.
But beauty standards and health are two different things. 
No matter how good you feel about your body, if your weight is extremely unhealthy, you're not going to enjoy that body for long. Because it will probably quit its job (keeping you alive) early.
If you love someone, you care for them, right? You want them to be happy and healthy. So if you want to love your body, you have to do the same.

Answer

the most detrimental aspect about body positivity is the overwhelming fatphobia that exists in it. body positivity was created by fat women. let me clarify. VERY FAT WOMEN. and fat folx like myself have been alienated from the community that was made for and by us 😧
