What’s the line between body positivity and narcissism?

Here is the thing, if you are a confident person then there will always be someone out there to call you self centered, arrogant, cocky or narcissistic. From my experience that is more rooted in other peoples own insecurities then anything to do with yourself. So haters are always going to hate.

I think calling someone self centered or narcissistic is such a easy thing to do, and its a complete copout. Because everyone to varying degrees are self centered or narcissistic in some shape or fashion... and for people to act like they are not hung up on themselves are probably not really being honest. Because the truth is that you know your own every thought, every action you take directly affects you, and everyone looks out for their own interests... so yes you are always at the center of your own universe because everything that happens around you effects you in one way or another.

I would rather be accused of being self centered, cocky, arrogant, over confident or narcissistic verse the what the alternatives could be.

Not much, take Lizzo and Tess holiday, these women are unhealthy fat and yet they think three beautiful, sorry girls that weight is unhealthy. At the same time is your skinny or slim does mean you get to be a bitch because guys are attacked to you, you maybe be hot but your personality sucks which is why your single.

men tend to like Marilyn Monroe body style this is why she known as the classic beautiful women, Veronica Lake or Katherine Hepburn are the ideal women

Isn't body positivity supposed to be for folks who have low self-esteem due to body image?

I guess I don't understand the post.

it's a personal decision to judge others that aren't living up to your looks
