Honestly, is that what we're calling fat these days? Because that's not fat. Not by a long shot.

Of course. Because when people who are truly obese deliver messages about body acceptance, people go ballistic.

MTE

oh for fuck's sake, who gives a shit

Yeah, she's about the same size as most women I know. I can't help but wonder if she's made any of them think they're fat when they didn't used to.

It's not thin, either.

Exactly this! I am a middle aged female who weights 240 pounds. I was talking about this song with a coworker 10 years younger and maybe 160 pounds heavier than me.

I know Meghan is the perfect precious right now, but she confuses the hell out of me. She's a little (yes, little) white girl singing with sounds like hip-hop with 50s rock. It smells like all production and no personality for herself.

I am also having a case of sour grapes because a different coworker (who is about 300 pounds) told me about the song, and she loves it so. I play electric bass guitar, so I was thinking it was something pro musical bottom end. Not the other bottom end. ;)

Compared to the real world - no. Compared to what popular media usually shows us - yes.

THIS

Chubby? To hell with that.

lmao oh please. She's not fat, but she's definitely chubby.

I can only think of a few songs like this to be honest, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Two Megan Trainor secrets in one day, with very similar background pictures? Odd.

The same background pic. I assume it's a clip from the music vid (I love the song, but I haven't seen the vid)

TIL "chubby" is anything other than being a bony skeleton. That is not even chubby, lol

Two secrets about the same song, with the same background?

With two different perspectives on the issue?

Gosh, I don't know, could it possibly be the same OP trying to start wank about body types/tumblr?

I know this is probably a secret intentionally made to start wank but I don't care, I fucking hate this song, and I will be so fucking glad when the "skinny bitch" mode of "body positivity" goes away.

Plus her comments about being "not strong enough" for anorexia were just awful.

Plenty of skinny female artists sing about their hips or their boobs or whatever, so if the heavier girls want to do the same I say go for it.

Well, Adele is one of the biggest artists in the world and has one of the best selling albums of all time, and most of her songs are about romance and don't mention her size once, so I think she is a pretty good example.

OP, are you me? That's exactly what happened to me!

I honestly had no idea this was a song about body image until today and these two suspiciously identical secrets. I've heard it on the radio and I thought it was like, a song about liking rhythm. Never understood the lyrics beyond "I'm all about that bass" oops

Ooooh, I see I used the wrong thread to complain about the song. Should have done it here.
