Men do it regarding other men as well, and women do it amongst themselves and to men. There's not some sort of ridiculous sexism involved here, get it out of your head and stop being so silly.
The other part of your comment I don't even know what to say about, that's how random it is.
You are right. I should have rephrased my statement: I am pretty sick of women being berated for being overweight and judged for their body condition. She recovered from an often fatal eating disorder, FFS. I phrased things the way I did because the OP is presumably a man.
Better? What part of this is random? This whole thread is filled with comments about whether her body is healthy or not. Weight is somehow a moral issue. How did that happen? People are fucking judgmental.
It's not about her health, it's about her attractiveness. Come on, at least admit that.
