i have been bodyshamed all my life. growing up, i was a skinny girl. i got so many insults from people who think they're better than i am. i got called all series of degrading names.. "mopping stick, broom, HIV patient..." amongst others. it never made me feel good, and i couldn't stand up for myself, i was just a girl.
fast forward to a few years later, i added flesh and looked better, and people are still in my throat.. bullying me and bodyshaming me. i don't go a day without strangers and even a known person talking about my body and how much I've added, calling me fat and all sort.
if i eat, they tell me the reason I'm fat is cos i eat too much (mind you, this person doesn't even know me).
as a human being, how does it feel to hurt people? how does it feel to insult a body you can not make? i know people will always talk, but i don't recommend.
it pays to mind one's business. if you're one of the people that bodyshames others, kindly stop and quit hurting people! 11 replies
