REAL Women Don't Body-Shame

I'm getting pretty sick and mother-fucking tired of “curvy” girls making fun of “skinny” girls and “slender” girls making fun of “fat” girls. STOP. The only body revolution we really need is a “mind your own fuckin' business” revolution

These women are not “too skinny” or “anorexic”

REAL Women Don't Body-Shame


And these women are not “fat” or even “plus sized”

REAL Women Don't Body-Shame

No one does themselves or society any favors by trying to glorify their own shape by putting down someone else. If you're a size 00 and that makes you happy then you're beautiful. If you're a size 14 and that makes you happy then you're also fuckin' beautiful.

Is this to say people can't have preferences? Of course not.

REAL women have curves, yeah....in their BRAIN where their true value should be. So let's stop the competition about what's the most desired size, shape, height, weight, tit size, ass size, etc. Honey Boo Boo's mom had a fuckin' boyfriend and dumped him for another man. She was the most desired end of a sick redneck love triangle, so no matter what people say you have wrong with you, there is hope for you yet.

Stop trying to make people feel bad, because the only thing you're making yourself look like is a damn mistake.


Commie, out.

  • I have seen more men body shame than women in my experience, but it IS more disheartening when it comes from our side. I just think people should place themselves in the other person's shoes so they can refrain from doing something like that.

    • Woman body shame a lot. But it depends on where you visit. In feminist circles body shaming is a no-no, but outside of that it happens a lot. Trust me.

    • @Remonster In my experience, it hasn't been that way. Men are more likely to shame in my opinion period. For instance, when a guy says that he will only date attractive women (on here), I've seen a few of them get a few mean comments. I made a MyTake saying the same thing and the majority of male comments were rude for NO reason, rife with fools who didn't read the Take but immediately judged it. I've seen more women/female camaraderie supporting each other than tearing us down.

  • I'm so glad you said that!!! I'm sick and tired of larger women putting thin women down, in an effort to make themselves look better. The truth is, a lot of skinny women are naturally skinny! It's not because they are starving themselves. A lot of models.. especially Victoria's Secret models work their butts off and eat super healthy to achieve the types of bodies they want.

    All women need to stop focusing on the physical, and start focusing on your health habits and character. If you are taking care of your body with the proper nutrients and exercise, then you are beautiful. If you have a beautiful character, than you are beautiful. None of the other stuff matters.

    • I definitely think it goes both ways but I appreciate your comment. No one should be treated like that.

  • "Fuckin' beautiful". Love that. :)

  • I definitely don't shame other women. I wore a size zero, an A bra size, and had no ass. While being surrounded by think and big boned women. They called me Olive Oly. I'm African American so of course I wasn't the black guys first pic and only appealed to them if they new I was a virgin. It was easy to pursue a modeling career but it made me feel like I had to be smaller. I wanted to gain not loose pounds, I wanted to feel sexy. So I ate to the point that people would ask me if I was ok, they new what I was trying to do and felt sorry for me but the verbal insults didn't stop. After years and I'm mean years of trying, I finally got some weight on me. My bra size went up, I had a fat ass and now everyone called me fat. I got what I wanted but I didn't really now what I wanted. Now that I'm working it out at the gym, I notice I want to be fit. Not too small or big. I want to be healthy enough to run down the block, sit Indian style, fold my legs properly and feel comfortable turning in a bathtub. Its little things but at no point would I hate on any side someone else chooses, Pick your happy ground for your self not other people. Today all the insults coming my way mean nothing to me, I feel stronger as a person but I was once weak enough to be hurt.

  • FUCKING YES! I said that once to another woman (not to body shame) and she went crazy on me and said she was going to pour bacon grease on her face... Not too sure where that was suppose to go... but all the power to her. We are ALL fucking awesome!

  • I completely agree with the owner on this. I all to often hear men and women talking about women's physique not fitting into their own preference of what they think women should look like. But, it's not isolated to women. I'm 5'9" and at one point I got up to 240lbs. I was unhealthy and not happy, but I chose to do something about it. I started eating right and exercising and got down to 160lbs (which was borderline overweight). I was happy and felt good but everyone criticized me because they said I needed to eat something and that I looked too skinny (some people even said sickly). It eventually wore me down and instead of being happy I was just as miserable as when I weighed 240lbs. Instead of being supportive, everyone made my efforts to be healthy a bad thing.

  • Is there a way to "like" this? I totally agree. by the way, that part about Honey Boo Boo's mother was hilarious and totally gave me hope haha. Only thing: one of them may have been a pedophile if I remember correctly? I'd rather be alone than with that But still, frigging hilarious ma'am!

  • I've been saying all along. . Women are narcissists. You are so cruel inside your own gender. evil hitches

    • Why is he rated down? It's kinda the truth... Women will notice butt jiggle or a little back fat waaaaay before a guy will.

    • You're not imagining. It's the culture. Nobody can make an observation or opinion that doesn't align with modern day women ideologies. It has to be pro or its misogynist

  • Yes. Yeesss. Thank you so much for this. It's so frustrating that women are tearing each other down just to feel better about their own bodies. Any time someone tries to tell me "REAL women" (or men) anything is just dismissed immediately. I don't want to talk to people who can only feel empowered by being an ass.

  • Well said!

  • Actually some of the VS angels are too skinny. But its not an insult or a compliment, its just fact, and those girls certainly aren't fat, they're curvy. But there's nothing wrong with being thin/curvy/fat, every body type exists, whats wrong is saying bad things about those body types. And you're so right, there's just so much hate nowadays and I feel extremely pressured to fit into society with my clothes and hair and makeup.
    I don't know if anyone sees this as corny, but everyone is BEAUTIFUL! Cause YOU work YOU FLAWLESS ;)

  • This was very good, you should consider doing more OP style articles in the future.

  • Let's just make i simple.
    If you're within the healthy range, you're potentially bautiful!
    Saying "potentially" because we all got our preferences, and you can't expect everyone to find you appealing.
    If you're not within that range, well, fix it. It's possible!
    (disclaimer: i know less than 1% of the population got a medical reason they can't loose/gain weight. But that's a small minority, and not an excuse for trying)

    • What's a healthy range though? As I said above, Olympic weight lifters can be pretty huge, but they're obviously in shape. And even if someone isn't healthy, what do you care? It's their body, not yours.

    • @cipher42 What is healthy? That is obviously easy to determine medically. We KNOW how much fat the body needs, we KNOW what level of nutritions we need, we KNOW roughly how much excercise we need... You see, e know what's medically a healthy body. Why do i care? Easy! Because i am a socialist, and i don't believe that it's their problem. obesity is damaging, both to the person and to the community. If the person CAN help it, and CAN do something about it, then it is society's problem. Because society is supposed to watch over everyone, and everyone is supposed to contribute. If you're so fat you need help, then you're leeching society, because you CAN fix it. The same way you CAN stop people from being criminals, you CAN prevent school droppouting... Because it's society's responsibility to CARE, and ensure that everyone who can are doing their part. That is why i don't believe in glorifying or accepting obesity or being overweight, quite the oposite.

    • I believe in calling it out for exactly what it is. A plague. Yes, kill me, hate me, all that crap. But numbers don't lie, and number say there are more fat and obese people than ever before. Accepting it will only make it worse. It's not the de facto reason, but it is contributing. So, are you going to stand by and watch as peopel fuck themselves up until they die from a heart attack, or are you going to take responsibility for society to ensure people are healthy It's all in the attitude towards it, and i'm not planning to be "politically correct".

  • Oh yes this is so spot on.

    • There needs to be a like button for MyTakes this one would get 500 of em.

    • Half of them would be for the pics though. The internet loves it some scantily clad women.

  • Damned straight!

    Body acceptance shouldn't be about shaming those who don't like fat girls/guys or shaming those who do like skinny girls/guys.

    It's about not being an asshole to someone just because you aren't attracted to them.

    • Never seen it put that way, but that's brilliant.

    • And I can clearly tell girls face this more than guys. Most of men's physique affects perhaps their dating prospects. Height apparently affects pay to an extent.

      But for women, looks seem to permeate every interaction they have. That HAS to be frustrating.

      I mean seriously, people were calling Michelle Obama "fat" during elections. Even if she WAS fat (though she is clearly not), why the hell does that matter? Do you plan on dating the first lady? No? Then it doesn't matter.

      Or as I have put it before in my pic here (If it works):

    • Very very true. I definitely don't think men are immune to these judgments, don't get me wrong. But I see the discussion of what's hot or not a lot more for women.

  • Thank freaking god!!! I hate when people say something about someone elses weight it's like... wtf do you care? And if anyone tells me again that I have to eat more I'm going to tell them to eat my ass because this is just how I look lol I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks this way. Especially nowadays the media glorifies being curvy and "Fuck them skinny bitches" like niki minaj and megan trainor. Not my fault I look the way I do stop hating.

    • My friends mother says that to me... apparently I don't eat enough because I don't want to eat taco bell. ACK! >.<

  • Hallelujah.

  • You are right, this is just bs to argue about what is most desired and all sorta crap. But it is better to be healthy and not in a condescending way but girls can help out each other in that department. Like you know what relax and go for healthy diets, healthy body shape, doesn't have to be size 0 or size 14 for that matter. But they need to have a harmony. After all healthy women creates healthy families.

    by the way just one thing I have noticed that women actually get jealousy or inclining towards hating each others guts a lot more quicker than men does. Although both genders have to work on not hating or getting jealous but I say women have a lot more work to do in this department.

    • I completely agree. Social attitudes pit us against each other, and we are NOT helping the issue at all... one of my main purposes for writing the take. Thanks for your comment.

    • Thanks :)

  • i1127.photobucket.com/.../....com-add-text%202.gif I completely agree with you! I have to say though "Honey Boo Boo's mom had a fuckin' boyfriend and dumped him for another man. She was the most desired end of a sick redneck love triangle..." made my lmfao

  • "And we will lose many of our friendships with women.

    They will not want to be invisible, or undesirable. They will see how we look through the men’s eyes – ugly, hysterical, clichéd – and they will be repulsed. They will stop coming to our meetings.

    They will hate us much more than the men; we must be ready for that."

  • Preach!!! Love this take :)
    Peace
