Please Refrain from Judging Others’ Bodies: You Lack Insight

Listen closely, everyone.

It’s crucial that we stop pretending to be concerned about the well-being of strangers when our comments are merely evaluations of their physical appearance. The truth is, you don’t know anything.

• Don’t jump to conclusions about their eating habits or exercise routines. You don’t know anything.
• Don’t assume what health conditions they may or may not have. You don’t know anything.
• Don’t presume to understand how their body affects their life, positively or negatively. You don’t know anything.
• Don’t assume you know the journey that led them to their current shape or size. You don’t know anything.
• Don’t think you can judge their happiness, health, or confidence based on appearance. You don’t know anything.
• Don’t assume they want to be anything other than who they are. You don’t know anything.
• Don’t think they lack a fulfilling life. You don’t know anything.

If you find yourself making any of these assumptions about someone just by looking at them, it reflects poorly on you.

Here’s the reality: Your concern isn’t about their health; it stems from your discomfort with their appearance. You can talk about being worried for their health or the potential burden on healthcare systems, but deep down, it’s clear that you’re just being disingenuous.

It’s perfectly okay to be fat, chubby, or plus-sized. It’s absolutely okay. Stop trying to shame or criticize individuals who don’t conform to your personal ideals of attractiveness. They do not exist to satisfy your preferences.

And if you feel the urge to derail conversations with comments about “skinny shaming,” remember that’s not the topic at hand. It’s akin to running through a hospital ward shouting about your own past ailments. This discussion is not about you. Save that for another time.

We need to reject the oppressive standards society imposes, dictating that to be deemed attractive or worthy, one must fit a certain mold. This includes specific looks, sizes, and behaviors.

We deserve the freedom to exist in any form we choose. You are entitled to your opinions, but they should remain yours alone. Projecting your biases onto others is unfair.

It’s vital to avoid expressing these judgments in front of children; the world is already rife with negativity. We need to nurture children who are kind, loving, empathetic, and who do not make assumptions based on someone’s body size.

Body positivity shouldn’t be a passing trend or a movement; it should be an inherent aspect of life. While we have not yet achieved this reality, we must continue to strive for it. Together, we can create a future where people are appreciated for their character, not just their physical form.

So remember, unless you’re talking about your own experiences… you don’t know anything.

Here’s to raising a generation that embraces self-love.
