i don't quite know
how to saw this
lightly. so i will be
blunt. bullies,
please take a good
look at yourself before
you bully or downgrade
another human being.they have feelings just
like you. things you say
could alter the way they
see themselves.i've been bullied. i hate
the fact that i'm skinny.
i am almost on a weekly
basis or even daily basis
get called skinny or twig.
and the occasional label
of being anorexic.i hate it. i see myself as so
skinny, not good enough.
i'm always comparing my
thighs to other girls on my
soccer team. always seeing
how much i can lift compared
to them. sure i have skinny
arms. but in reality, am i
anorexic to you?you see me eat, you see me
devour my food, so please
explain to me why i still
get called evil things,
malevolent things, that hurt
that hurt my feelings, the things
you say can hurt, they do hurt
i don't just walk around every
single day and think, i'm normali don't, i always have the
persistent little voice in the
back of my head saying, you're
too skinny, or eat more, or
you need to eat a huge hamburger.
i cannot get over that. i've been
bullied and sure people may say
it as a compliment, but to me it's
an insult, like you're insulting me
like you're mocking me. because
that's what everyone else has
characterized me to be.an anorexic looking girl
who just eats a little.
i stuff my face, i love food.
you don't see me throwing
up my food. losing weight
in an unhealthy way. i
exercise daily, i am active
and i have a high
metabolism.so please go ahead and
call me anorexic one
more time just because
i am skinny, just because
i am active, take a good look
at yourself first, you jealous yet?
