when i was skinny (and also deeeep into my eating disorder) i got treated so well and people respected me and complimented me on how good i was doing and looking while i was THIS close from getting hospitalized due to the malnutrition 

as soon as i gained weight i got to hear:
- ur work was way better when u had ur ED
- oh wow u look different (with a disgust in the tone and eyes)
- are u sure ur gonna have that?
- u know it's not saturday today, haha!
- maybe u should have a look at what you eat
etc etc etc
this list goes on

n like the clip u linked @/koolaid,, the reason i also wanted to be skinny was because i knew people would treat me better and it was always for the other people that i wanted to lose the weight, because i would be more accepted

it has taken me years to unlearn the ED,, but at the same time sometimes i'm on the verge of going back to it
but i try my best to think, do i want to live carefree and enjoy life or do i want to be in hell and constantly be obsessed with food and my body ? and the answer is always, i prefer what i have now because i'm happier and my mind isn't clouded with a disorder

Idk ppl don't wanna look skinny either. Or normal weight. Forever cursed no matter what body u have. If its not the weight, its the shape
yeah shape is def important, but still, skinny curvy > fat curvy
as a gay i disagree

Yes, curvy always the best tho, like skinny apple shape, like skinny legs (normal weight still) n fat stomach, nobody wants thta in this society

but like whats the difference between a thin person showing off their body and a person who is thing because of an ed showing off their body is the question and the answer is we cant really know because were not doctors lmfao like in a case like cooney its obvious that something is wrong but in many cases the public is simply not ever going to know where the line is drawn imo.
Makes me think of how pretty much my entire life any proud photo of a fat woman is labeled as glorifying unhealthy bodies...

not saying either is right but definitely comparable

its absolutely comparable a hundred percent. but society loves to pit women against each other so instead of seeing the commonality in our experiences ive got bigger women telling me to eat a cheeseburger and asking me if i throw up. we should be comrades in this soceity out here telling us what to do with our bodies and we fighting each other over it.

Its weird, we have 2 high schools (?? 8-10th grade) in my town, the one I went to, practically no bullying etc, everyone being good at doing schoolwork, good grades etc, but the one my sister went to had a lot of fights, bullying, bad grades. I just, what

I reckon that's common

Yes but I just ?? Just cus u like being skinny urself, doesn't mean u look down upon bigger ppl. Weird. Everybody should just strive to be their best self n whatever bla bla bla. Unlike what fat activists will tell u
yea i agree

it doesn't need to be unlearned because it's personal. i don't think the activists like to acknowledge that people can just like how they look when skinny. fat people shouldn't be treated badly but losing weight shouldn't be considered fatphobic

There's a difference between showing off your outfit, and bodychecking.

I'd say showing off your outfit is things like; Stepping away from the camera, lifting your legs to show the shoes, maybe brushing your hair away to show off accessories, etc. Whereas bodychecking would be (in my opinion) things like turning to the side to show off how thin you are, tightening your shirt/dress around your waist to show off how tiny / slim it is, sucking in your stomach, and generally just pointing out what your body looks like without a purpose other than showing off how thin, fat, chubby, medium, skinny or whatever the fuck you are.

Does that make sense?

Bodychecking  can be a symptom of lots of mental health / self worth issues.

body checking is fairly obvious - exposed collarbones and visible thin body parts in a post that has zero relation to body image or anything else
