Question

What are your thoughts on the body positivity movement?

Anonymous · Answer

I don't object to anyone feeling good about themselves but the very moment that you try to manipulate others into thinking that you are da bomb, I turn against you.

Everyone deserves to feel good about themselves but everyone also deserves the right to choose when they are attracted to.

i don't agree with it. if you're actively trying to get healthy tho, then fine enjoy your journey of loving your body. but don't be obese forever, please... being too fat or too skinny is never a positive thing.

Flower7 · Answer

It seems like it's directed only toward overweight women being proud of their bodies, instead of being inclusive of all body types.

Anonymous · Answer

Since it seems to be that it's mostly about promoting morbid obesity, I'd say my thoughts on it are similar to my thoughts on the pro-anorexia movement: seems like a bad idea.

biggiewasntsmall · Answer

It’s good, for overweight people and I mean women in particular. Not for skinny women because, despite everyone secretly loving their bodies, they are now seen either bony and unattractive or devils that caused people to hate all other types of bodies. Let me not mention us guys, what body positivity is promoted for males? It’s okay for a girl to be overweight and not care about what she eats but everyone wants a bodybuilder for a boyfriend... yeah, logical and totally understandable.

JackSmy · Answer

Body "positivity"? Is that where they show REALLY UGLY PEOPLE on commercials?

Protein_mate · Answer

I think it's good in terms of providing support for healthy change and instilling confidence to go through the process knowing there is support there. But celebrating obesity and overeating isn't a good thing

Jejsjsjdj · Answer

It can fuck off and go to hell because I'm still gonna fat shame people like it's 2003. Why should we accept lazyness? No. They need to get off their ass

DeltaCharlieEcho · Answer

Absolutely disgusting. It's one thing to have an understanding that not every man is a greek god and not every woman is of timeless beauty; but where we are today normalizes bad health and does nothing to encourage good habits.

Sakiyamoon · Answer

Definitely support loving yourself but when it comes down to being provocative and calling it body positivity well then that's when i call bullshit.

Dchrls78104 · Answer

If it means being respected and not being called nasty names because of features of your body that you can't control, them I'm all for it; if it means being called healthy when in fact you're sick, sorry, I'm not OK with that.

Hathor · Answer

people should be comfortable to be themselves without having to celebrate mediocrity.

That seems more like an American movement. Here you get teased if you are fat.

I think you can look beautiful/attractive at any weight, body or shape! The individual should decide what they want to do for health reasons, but that doesn't change that they should love their body!

worldscolide · Answer

When they started pushing for fat acceptance and calling those of us that aren't attracted to land whales fat phobic, It lost all of my respect..

Scarecrow13 · Answer

I am mixed. On the one hand we shouldn't obsess over tye "perfect body". On the other hand, we should strive to be healthy and keep a relatively healthy weight the best we can.

Amur8711 · Answer

Stupid, just encourages unhealthy habits. Its different when you do try to be healthy but you still are underweight or over weight in appearance. But thats because thats how their body is actually built naturally skinny ore naturally thick.

I draw the line at 400lbs calling themselves fluffy or curvy.

DumBear · Answer

I think everyone should aim for a healthy body but its fine if you're overweight or skinny

OddBeMe · Answer

Its good to make people feel better about themselves. Even if they need to be healthier. Happy people are more likely to improve than depressed people harass online.

007kingifrit · Answer

its all a lie. obviously fat people should be ashamed of their body. it encourages healthy lifestyles

Anonymous · Answer

I think positively. Everyone is copying each other nowadays. We are tired of the so-called uniform perception of beauty, because everyone has an inkwell nose, is as thin as a board, and has a lot of aesthetics.

Rawkman · Answer

It's good to feel comfortable in your body but they should also promote having a healthy lifestyle and aspire to look and feel your best.

Jouth · Answer

Diabetes doesn't care about your feelings. Neither do heart problems. Do the work, lose the weight.  No amount of mental acrobatics makes being overweight a good idea.

little_black_dress · Answer

I want to lose weight

banshee_cx · Answer

I support body positivity while also supporting the encouragement of trying to get better for health purposes. You can be overweight and underweight and still be appealing but you should get better for the sake of your health.

Anonymous · Answer

Fat is fat and it’s not healthy. People are too lazy to lose the weight so now they’re making excuses and tying to push the notion of “being gay is the same as being skinny”. It’s fucking not.

Hanrej · Answer

They are so far off that they're celebrating unhealthy behaviour.

Snakeyes7 · Answer

Body positivity is always knowing that there is always room for improvement and be happy with your progress, not to be happy with the way you are

SmokinAces2000 · Answer

I think it’s cool but there is a limit like someone that is 600 pounds should not be told that they are living a good lifestyle

CausticHippy · Answer

Be positive about people that treat their body well. To each their own. If you like fat people, go tell them how well they ate an entire family sized bag of chips with no help.

Shark_61695 · Answer

cloud9vortex1234 · Answer

I don't think a movement is going to help that. You either feel good about your body or you don't. You just have to be honest with yourself.
