Love Your Bones!

"Skinny"

I know how for a while being "skinny" was praised and people would body shame people who had more weight upon them which wasn't cool. Because everyone possesses some kind of special or different quality that makes them beautiful.

So for people to make someone else feel bad about their body type just makes them a messed up person.

There's no such thing as a perfect body unless it's healthy. And just because someone is skinny doesn't mean they're healthy which this is something that a lot of people needs to realize.

Body shaming skinny people isn't any different from skinny people body shaming people who are "fat". And it solves nothing. The way I see it is If you're not happy with your body then do something that will make you fall in love with the body that you have.

Work for the body that you want. Don't talk badly about someone else's body just because you aren't satisfied with your own.

I've experienced so many encounters with people who've had more weight on their bodies than me where they would just be so rude. They would say things like "You need to eat more.", "You're nothing but skin and bones.", "You're a skeleton.", "You're so skinny!", "You're just bones!",etc.

People even thought that I was anorexic.💁🏽‍♀️ But I would never feel any kind of way about anything that was being said to me. Even though it does get annoying. Because I've noticed that people who are really insecure about their bodies are always so quick to point out the flaws with someone else's body. And then they would be the first to get upset if someone does the same thing to them.

A person that is truly happy with their body isn't gonna make someone else feel bad about their's. Because what would be the point in doing that?

Now society is now showing more love to people who are plus-sized which I think is super incredible! I think that everyone should be recognized for our differences but not in a way that'll hurt anyone.

But the bad part about that is now skinny people are targets because now it's a competition about which body type is better or worse. And now skinny people are getting more hate.

It all is just mainly about people's preferences. Which is fine everyone is entitled to their opinions. And everyone is allowed to like what they like and dislike what they dislike. But that should be done correctly.

Why bring down one body type just to praise & uplift another? Why can't everyone just be loved the way that they are or encouraged to make healthier choices?

Now skinny people are feeling like they're not enough because their bodies aren't plumped like others. they're now trying to get more meat on their bones. But everybody's body types are different it takes others longer to gain weight. While it's a little bit easier for other people to gain weight.

So my advice to skinny people would be to love your bones! love your size! You're fine just the way that you are. If you want to be skinny, be skinny! If you want to gain weight, then gain weight. But do things that'll make you happy! Whatever you choose to do, do it for you! And don't let no one make you feel bad about your size!

If there are people who can love their fat then us skinny people can definitely love our bones!💛
