Body positivity is good

Fat acceptance is not

When you think of ‘Body Positivity/Acceptance’ what comes to your mind? I’ll tell you because these people have embedded in our minds that this ‘movement’ that could’ve actually been such a positive and helpful thing is now overruled by obese women. Women that know they’re overweight and try to justify “Health at every size”

In tumblrs #bodypositivity and #bodyacceptance instead of people with prosthetics, shaved heads (due to a disease), lack of limbs, even weirdly placed birthmarks etc. It’s over flowed with unhealthy, (and if they’re obese enough) government funded women who think that they are okay with slowly killing themselves and calling it ‘confidence.

Instead of this unhealthy lifestyle being encouraged, I’m sure there’s people out there that need it more than a obese person in denial.

This is what the Body Positivity/Acceptance movement is supposed/ should be like.

“Health at every size” is vastly incorrect. This goes for those who are #proana or #profat.

There is a difference between being curvy/chubby and fat.

There is a difference between being skinny/thin to being anorexic.

Being purposely anorexic or fat is extremely unhealthy and shouldn’t be praised.

1. Why is fat-shaming only a problem when it happens to women?

2. Why do you complain about Barbie promoting “unrealistic beauty standards and body image issues for women” but say nothing at all about He-Man doing the same for men? If your excuse is that “He-Man represents a male power fanasty” could it not also be argued that Barbie Dolls do the same thing for women? Is being sexy not a power which women can use to give themselves an advantage in society?

3. If we need more fat women in the media because it’s “more realistic” and “better represents the average woman” then maybe we should take out all of the hot, rich guys in those romantic comedies you like so much and replace them with schlubby, balding, bluecollar mall cops and cashiers because that would better represent the average man, how about that?

4. (For those of you who don’t think men can be/are feminists.) Doesn’t the idea that men can’t be feminists kind of go against the supposed ideals of intersectional feminism? If you really believe that all forms of oppression and inequality go hand-in-hand, and if you believe in that feminism is about equality, then does feminism not represent men who face inequality and oppression, such as those of minority ethnicities and/or LGBT status or even straight, white male victims of domestic violence who are denied access to abuse shelters because of their gender? If it does, then why shouldn’t men have a voice in feminists discussions?

5. Why does our society teach boys that it’s wrong to hit girls but not that it’s wrong for girls to hit boys? If feminism is for equality, where’s the feminist outcry for that?

6. Why do you say “men who don’t want to be fathers should keep it in their pants” but get outraged when an anti-abortion activist says “women who don’t want to be mothers should keep their legs together”?

1. If “a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle” why do you continue demanding alimony and child support payments?

2. Why do think you understand men better than men do?

3. How do you fail to realise that calling everything sexist, racist and rape does nothing but devalue the terms through overuse and make people less likely to take claims of sexism, racism and rape seriously?

4. If we should ban the word “bossy” because it’s “used to discourage women from taking leadership positions” should we also not also ban the word “mansplaning” because used to derail conversations and dismiss the opinions of men?

5. Why do you mock men for their “male tears” effectively shaming men for being emotional, thus encouraging men to be insensitive and perpetuating the “toxic masculinity” you like to complain about so much?

6. Why do you demand shoehorning women and miorities into works of fiction? If you like the story and characters, then why does the race or gender of the characters matter? Are you saying you can’t enjoy/relate to a character unless they’re the same race or gender as you, as if to imply that their skin colour and genitals matter more to you than their personality or traits? What does that say about you?

They all claim that Disney princesses and female heroes/villians have unrealistic body types and ‘oppresses’ them, they seem to forget the Disney princes and heroes/villains.

Not once have I’ve heard a mention of Prince/male heroes and villains having too big of a chest or unrealistic bodies, broad shoulders, jawline.

Everyone knows most feminists/sjw’s say that women are on a constant “rape schedule” because of men but what they don’t mention is this.

Women can rape men.

Men can rape men

Women can rape women

Racism is the belief in the superiority of one race over another, which often results in discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity.
