I ask myself this often.
what the fuck is empowering about wammin in underwear? bra burning happened 50 FUCKING YEARS AGO. I cannot in anyway understand the concept that “fuck off im in my drawers deal with it” means empowered self love. Actual underwear ads are literally selling something- underwear. Is it some sort of subversive version of that? Because rolly polly bekah in her ugly saggy color Block bra and panties looks insane. She looks like Aunty Merle got into the schnapps again at Christmas at her dementia kicked off and the family found her sitting in her knickers in the gazebo grinning weirdly.

I'm throwing myself in here too. Confused AF millennial. And this goes beyond the fatties, I don't understand it of the skinny, conventionally 'hot' (read: fake) thots. It's not that I'm a prude or anything, ho it up, talk about all the dick and pussy you're getting, swap notes with ya girls, live your best life. But why do you have to get EVERYTHING out on EVERY instagram post? It's fucking pathetic in my eyes, just so desperate. Like a well placed thirst trap is all well and good, but I feel the feed has just become ass shot, box shot, inserting yourself in a meme about kink when you know the girl is a fucking starfish in the sack.

Sorry for the OT but for real, I'm just confused. The photos of women that have stopped me in my tracks and made me say 'DAAAYUM' they are all fully clothed. Get your ass outta my face.

I'm an old GenXer, and don't get it either.

The only explanation I can come up with is that they had parents who didn't want to impose too many rules and boundaries on behavior, or seem too strict and judgmental, so they left their kids to figure out the right way to be in this world. So where did these kids go for guidance? Entertainment media, advertising, and popular self-help culture. Which has been a fucking disaster (and it's been just as disastrous for young men, too, just in different ways).

And it didn't help that the late '90s and '00s were a time when even very young girls were being aggressively hypersexualized--that was the era of Britney, Christina Aguilera, and other teenage pop-tarts; "princess" shit; and Bratz dolls. And it was also a time when every mother of daughters I knew was bewailing how slutty even little girls' clothing had become. After the '70s and '80s, during which gender divisions in toys and kids' clothing were still there, but a lot less rigidly defined, those gendered divisions came roaring back with a vengeance--if you were a girl, you were supposed to want pink and sparkly everything. Spoiled princess or slutty pop star seemed to be the main roles to aspire to.

And socializing among children changed drastically during that era--while us '70s kids used to go run in packs, and be gone for hours at a time with no parental interference, '90s and '00s kids became increasingly isolated and sheltered from each other, with their interactions overseen and moderated by adults--while at the same time they were the first kids to grow up online, with all that entails.

Looking back, I'm not surprised that so many of today's young women who were kids during that period either sexualize themselves for an audience by posing semi-nude on Insta, or are trooning out (or going genderspecial), deciding that they must not really be women, after all.

The influence of advertising alone is really obvious: You deserve to have whatever you want; being overtly sexual is liberating; self-indulgence has no consequences (or shouldn't).

And fatgirls are no less immune to the allure of being a sexy, confident Instathot than thin women are; they've been taught to believe they deserve to be seen as beautiful and desirable, and that posing in your underwear is what beautiful, desirable women do. And even if a fatgirl doesn't really believe she's beautiful and desirable, she can convince herself that posing in her underwear, revealing every bulge and stretch mark, somehow makes her more honest, more authentic, more real. An ad campaign at some point told her so, and the followers and upvotes she gets simply confirm it.

(I've been thinking about this a lot lately, but it's still a mess of ideas in my head that I haven't had time to sort through and arrange, so yeah, it's kind of sloppy.)

There are no studies I know of showing that a BMI of 35+ is healthy. There are some studies about better surgery recovery outcomes for people who are overweight versus those who are nearly wasting away (think underweight elderly women with osteoporosis), but that's very different, of course.

If anything, women in FA do themselves a major disservice by ignoring abdominal fat's significant contribution to female cancers (among many other cancers and diseases). It's serious: https://journals.lww.com/ajnonline/...y_Related_Cancer_in_Women__A_Clinical.27.aspx

Yup Zilch. Any so called doctor claiming "HAES" should be struck off to be honest

Spoiler

You're not alone. I've been thinking a lot what future generations going to look like and succumb to and the outlook is turning out very bleak. The world will never be a better place only worse. Only snowflakes but nothing else and they are all struggling to make a living or fully exploit themselves to just make it. The internet made it so. [/SPOILER}

As I've learned in the great Kiwi accademy: Don't post yourself on the internet.

Fuck I hate it when they say tummy, like the people they're talking to are toddlers. About 80% of her recent posts are her in her underwear totally not hating herself. It's like a reverse instathot.

edit. Words are hard.

Sorry that I'm late but has she publicly admitted to her "previous" Eating Disorder? I have only seen her reference her depression.
"you deserve to put food in your tummy" screams "I used to have a restrictive eating disorder and now I'm recovered (DON'T talk to me about my weight!)".

Also, I don't know about you... but I don't gently rub my body on the daily.

They changed the meaning of the word "empowering" from "Gives you power" to "Makes you feel good".
Getting a job, empowering. Being legally allowed to have your own bank account and lines of credit, empowering.
Posting your ass on Instagram, "empowering".

What the hell is she drinking? Watered down wine? Juice? Pedialyte?

I.........I................👁👁

I understand the human body comes in many shapes and sizes. I’m not expecting that everyone is a certain height or whatever. BUT YOU ARE DEFORMED SWEETHEART. YOU HAVE A DEFORMITY. I do have some sympathy that she never expected that fupa to blow out of control into what we see today, but she rolled the dice on that. That’s the kind of deformity you can’t come back from without surgery. I think the natural response to seeing yourself in those jeans is to burn the jeans and go back to the drawing board, not post it then make a video defending the jeans.

No one is telling her to wear a burqa just get some jeans you don't have to strangle your pussy with!

This is the danger of too much elastic in denim. When FatLippodcast/Ash was crying about how a 6x "should" have been a 3x, it's because people like this will stuff themselves into anything to say they're a size 22.

Holy shit, she is so salty about it, even though most of the comments were trying to be nice, lol. It's a disturbing optical illusion, and she does not look cute in it at all; she looks worn out and deformed. So much ego!

All of the videos on that chick's channel are basically worth watching. She lost a lot of weight after learning to control her binge eating habits, and she is into data and research and, you know, reality.

Thanks for sharing this (even if it possibly was shared before and I missed it/it was before my time). It sounds pretty interesting.

The fast food and junk food--hell, the food--industries don't care about your "wellbeing," either, dummy. The person at the chip shop doesn't care about you. The person at the bakery doesn't care about you. The person at the coffee shop doesn't care about you. The person at McDonald's certainly doesn't care about you.

Take your munchy box and shove it up your ever-expanding bum.

I feel like there's some degree of, "if I show everybody EVERYTHING, no one will be shocked by my horrifying body when they see it in person," maybe? But your theory seems more fitting. Seeing Bekah post the exact same meaningless platitudes every day which clearly isn't meant for her followers but is her desperately trying to believe it, it's really sad, but also pathetic. Trying to convince herself she's escaped the chains of misogyny and fatphobia and capitalism yet attempting to present herself as sexy, fighting off her subconscious that's telling her something is wrong because it knows she'd feel better physically and mentally if she returned to a healthy weight, and consuming in excess be it food or clothes.

I have never seen crazy eyes like this outside of fictional villains, lol. Her expression makes me feel uneasy... I was going to say she's probably going to kill herself but maybe it's more likely she'll just continue to exist in a dissociated trance. I wonder what a day in her life is like.

Edit: shit sorry for the double post, I don't know what happened.

Bitch you're the one that's going to end up literally dying because of your "beauty standard". Stop trying to project your insecurities so badly.
