Skinny Rant


I stumbled on this video today and it hit some chords. I'm not a cam model, though I have thought about it, the issues she talks about, especially regarding her weight and what people say to her about it really stood out. If I go out in public, especially in restaurants I get comments from people. It's pretty much a daily occurrence. I get it from the people I work with, friends, people I see on a daily basis that I am acquainted with, and total strangers. Just two weeks ago I went to a restaurant and the woman sitting at the table behind me patted me on the back halfway through my meal as she was getting up to leave and said "eat, eat, it's good for you".

Ok, so I live in a country where food is probably one of the most important topics but seriously, I'm starting to get tired of it. Body size really shouldn't be anyone's concern but my own. Thankyouverymuch.

I LOVE skinny.

I also love not skinny.

Not a fan of big, but that is just me.

What I really love is someone who is comfortable in their skin, in their body. When people nit pick other people's bodies it is usually because they are not happy with theirs.

I really love looking at your skinny body...I miss your pictures..
