i think we need to be aware of how dangerous it is that skinny is back in.
as a girl with a pretty curvy figure (i am a teen, so iâm still waiting for when iâm fully developed) i see girls online romanticizing VS angel/slavic doll bodies which makes me so concerned. they are so thin that they are seen as skeletons.
i believe this emphasizes the fact that patriarchy still runs rampant. they see women with hourglasses and pears as fat/chubby while having the ideal body be completely shaved and skinny with no boobs. it makes it obvious that itâs enforcing an unhealthy and a very creepy, childlike standard. they do not want us to grow up.
itâs so concerning seeing people romanticize EDs and such all in the name of looking like these girls who were actively using drugs and barely eating anything in order to stay with the trend and what the patriarchy wants. even women who have a decent weight/bmi are still considered fat.
all in all, if youâre curvy, chubby, skinny, and so on, be proud of your body and donât listen to what the patriarchy tells you! you are beautiful and you shouldnât conform to standards that will hurt you. donât give in to what they want.
having more weight, body hair, and sass doesnât make you any less of a woman.
