So a lot of times when topics come on here about obesity I’ll see people feel very adamantly against promoting obesity or fat because it is unhealthy. However having a thigh gap is generally also unhealthy and yet this is a physical attribute promoted and glorified by fitness groups & media. There are other things that are considered fitness or skinny that can be considered physically unhealthy to achieve. So why is it that people continue to promote these attributes and deem them healthy while bashing the alternative?

Additionally regarding this topic I fear the fitspo movement has mostly just turned into a way to tell women & men they are ugly. It has convinced people they need to work out and buy programs & products to achieve a standard that is rather unrealistic for MOST people unless achieved through surgery or excessive/obsessive dieting & working out which I think is mentally unhealthy and yet this is promoted as “being healthy” and living a healthy lifestyle .

People are missing that I wasn’t referring to people’s thigh gaps that are naturally caused by bone structure in a healthy way I’ll share my one comment to clarify
