It's all marketing. "My Super Skinny Fabulous Life" wouldn't sell.
I'm sick of being skinny shamed. I went off on my mom a couple of weeks ago because we were driving down the road, and a super skinny chick was riding her beach cruiser in a bikini top and shorts, and my mom said the whole "give that girl a sandwich". When I told her that's skinny shaming, she said, "I'd never say it to her face!" So, great; not only is it fine to talk behind some stranger's back, but there's no point in you doing it? When I pointed out to her that people say that stuff to me on the regular, she was like, "well, you're not as skinny as she is".
What?? So it's ok to skinny shame a stranger behind her back, and then tu quoque me?
