As for myself being nearly anorexic at one point, I prefer it when people don't call me skinny.
Anorexia is a horrible eating disorder. Looks aren't everything, yet in this society we are conditioned to think that everybody is supposed to be that way. No.
I honestly hate not having much meat on my bones. I still don't eat as much, but I'm working on having a healthy meal everyday.
I get a lot of people telling me that I'm skinny, and I even had a guy call me a twig. I didn't want to be this way. I don't understand how human beings can push others near the point of death.
Being skinny and not eating means that I'm not as tall as everybody else, and it sucks. It's nice that I have one or two people who know I don't like being skinny. It helps. If I'm being honest, being skinny is something you should never try to be. Some people are naturally skinny, and that's quite
alright. But you wouldn't want somebody pointing out that you aren't as meaty as them every five seconds, right?
There are lots of people who would give their lives to have that. And, well, it's absolutely idiotic.
I'm very self conscious about not having as much weight as everyone else.
Not being tall enough.
Having to constantly deal with people shoving the word "skinny" in my face. A lot of people need a good slap in the face so they can get it through their head that not everyone wants to be known as something they don't want to be.
I'm "the skinny one."
And that's not okay.
So maybe sometimes, keep your mouth shut.
