Weren't part beauty standards worse than the ones of today? Fat women love to complain about how today we expect women to be thin and fit and the media shows an unrealistic beauty standard, but not so long ago, wasn't it worse? Isn't women being pressured into corsets worse than being pressured to work out? And considering the pandering that's happening right now that isn't even happening! They think that because some people get anorexia that it must be society, when realistically anorexia has been around through many societal changes, some historians believe that it might have been around BC! There have been tons of healthy things suggested by the media and society over time, they should be grateful that right now simply being fit will suffice, and as a people we see being too thin as bad, they just want fucking excuses. If they can say there something wrong with being fit then there not that bad, it's society that needs to change not them. Honestly, right now getting plastic surgery, implants, and lip injections are big, not the best, but it could be worse and there isn't anything wrong with it health-wise. And the media will all lasts show something a bit unrealistic, everybody isn't going to be rich and beautiful but showing rich and beautiful is what sells, and people will feel bad about it. Feeling bad is what motivates us, if you don't feel bad you'll never want to improve, and even if you get really bad to the point where it's not healthy there's help and it's not society's fault you felt that way (you is just speaking generally). This is to fats: people get anorexia and people feel bad, that's never going to stop, stop blaming people for the inevitable and thinking everything has to be perfect for things to be right, change is hard even if it's good, because losing weight made you hungry and it got hard or you were 'thin' and unhappy doesn't mean losing weight or being thin is wrong, it means you're a little bitch, when you see someone and you think you feel pity because 'society has made them think thin is the only way to be happy and is normal', really you're jealous and it's a defense mechanism, get over it, get healthy, do something right, and stop thinking something's wrong with everyone and everything but you
