Is this necessary? |
This morning I made the mistake of commenting on a Reel that showed up on my Facebook page. Silly me, when will I learn that leaving a comment online only leads to heartache, frustration, disgust, anger and depression?
The Reel showed a beach scene with people walking along the sand. Depicted were several overweight women in bikinis, their flaccid tummies hanging over their bathing suits, loose skin bouncing about. I made the comment, which might have been perceived as trying to be helpful, "Don't women with bad bodies know they can wear a 1-piece bathing suit?"
OMG! The reactions! One woman called me a "dope." Another one said I had a "bad attitude" and I should just "STFU!" A third said, "There are no bad bodies, just bad people like you!"
The average American woman today is 5'4" and weighs 170 pounds. I am that height and if I weighed that much I would lay in my bed all day and cry. (And eat Oreos and potato chips.)
