Is most of it fake or real whats ur thoughts on it
Don't attack me on this, but for me, it was not real. People call it a movement, but it has actually lost its meaning over the years. Compony uses it to boost more sale.
People use it to build fake approval online for clout
Then criticize someone who's not to their standard behind doors
to a certain level..
but some people have used it to normalise being unhealthy
Fairs
Thats sad
Yeah i notice that alot too
Yeah this too. Having some volume is okay to a certain degree, but most people use body positivity to defend their self-negligence, as if that won't result in some health issue one way or another.
I think body positivity shouldn't be gaslighting yourself if you're obese into thinking that you have a healthy weight. Just accepting and not hating your body EVEN if you're obese if that makes sense. Nobody should ever hate their body, but you should know that you're not in a healthy weight range and you have a higher risk for diseases
Right! i'm so tired of people praising someone whose clearly not on their best state, especially everything is accesible now that only self control is at risk if you start commiting on a healthy lifestyle
yeahh, many obese ppl have so much going on in their life that they can't take care of their body and that's okay, but it really shouldn't be praised or celebrated
Can't agree more
Twinnn
True
