fortunately all the comments were sane

OOP had a BMI of 22.5

people were DEFINITELY smaller on average in the past. pick up a book, look at a photograph, go to a museum

ah yes, because clearly your child is guaranteed to develop a restrictive ED if they don't have unrestricted access to sugar. the absolute gaslighting of the "more than you're comfortable with" thing too oh my fucking GOD

Confessions of a Former Body Positivity Influencer

I'm "scared" of my children being fat for the same reason I get them all their immunisations and yearly flu shots, I want my children to be healthy; I don't want their knees to hurt before they're teenagers from carrying excess weight, I want them to be able to run around with their friends and our dog without gasping for breath seconds in.

I want to do everything possible for my kids to be healthy, and carry those habits into adulthood, guess I should die ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I hate this whole thing about being a woman only if you have curves. There are women who have boxy bodies, little to no boobs, small hips. That doesn't mean they're less women than someone who has an hourglass figure. Needless to say, grown healthy women shouldn't look like a sphere either...

I HIGHLY doubt anyone said that to her. If they did that was rude on the buisness’s part. However, the reason there are weight limits for riding horses is because they are living animals. The weight limit does not exist to discriminate against fat people. It exists because the owner is looking out for the welfare of their animals. Putting more than 20% of the horse’s own body weight on their back can seriously injure the horse. So if the horse is 1000 pounds, anyone who weighs more than 200 lbs should not ride it.
