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.

Link, so people know I'm not making shit up:

"I wasn't strong enough to have an eating disorder," she said. "I tried to go anorexic for a good three hours."

I just... there are no words for how sick that is. None.

[(Anonymous)]

IDK. Just sounds like someone who hasn't spent as much time as us reading SJ literature.

[(Anonymous)]

Uh, no. If you need SJWs to tell you that acting as though anorexia, or any other mental disorder, is some cool nifty accessory is a shitty thing to do, then frankly I don't know how you function out in the real world.

[(Anonymous)]

Still disgusting, even if she didn't mean it.

What gets worse are the people who defend this line.

[(Anonymous)]

You don't have to sit around reading "SJ literature" to know that anorexia isn't a happy fun time thing.

[(Anonymous)]

That sounds like the sort of line I'd expect to hear from a particularly stupid fat stand-up comic, like Bernard Manning or Jo Brand.

[(Anonymous)]

I felt like that as a teenager--like, why wasn't I disciplined and focused enough about food to be anorexic--but I knew it was fucked up to feel that way (or maybe, that I had that thought because I was having broader MI problems).

[sarillia]

I hate it too. Can we please have some body positivity that doesn't rely on tearing down other bodies?

[(Anonymous)]

How about somebody who is fat, OK with it, and makes awesome songs and fashion? Beth Ditto is fantastic and you should totally listen to some Gossip (I suggest starting with Moving in the Right Direction but Heavy Cross and Perfect World are a good place to start too)

[(Anonymous)]

This. Nothing turns me off more then a "body positivy" song filled with catty mean-girl bullcrap.
Like, can we just once have an actual "body positivy" song that doesn't relay on insulting and pitting other women against each other? I don't ask for much.

[(Anonymous)]

This song probably offends less people than all the songs about hot girls, because skinny women are just less of the population. So...it's getting there?

[(Anonymous)]

But it doesn't?

Go ahead and tell them skinny bitches Hey
No, I'm just playing I know you think you're fat,
But I'm here to tell you that,
Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top

How is that "tearing down skinny bitches"? She's just poking a little fun at them.

[(Anonymous)]

How about by not calling them "skinny bitches" for a start?

[(Anonymous)]

Well, having taken the last two years to go from an 18-20 to a 10-12 and now in the realm of the skinny bitches, I find it offensive to say that a skinny girl isn't a 'real woman'. I'm exactly the same person, I just weigh less.

And I like being called a skinny bitch about as much as I liked being called a fat bitch.

[(Anonymous)]

That reminded me of Mother Gothel "poking a little fun" at Rapunzel.

[iceyred]

As a skinny bitch...who really cares what this one-hit wonder thinks of my body type? I tell my mirror how fabulous it looks every morning and then I tra la la on my merry way. This chick and any one else who follows the body positivity fad of shaming other women can't take that away.

[(Anonymous)]

This is the right way to go about life--what ever your body size/shape/etc. is--YOU ARE FABULOUS! Now go out there because the world is yours!

[(Anonymous)]

SJP thinks she's fabulous and she still looks like a shaved camel.

[(Anonymous)]

TBH, I read the comment about not being strong enough to be anorexic in a different way. I mean, I've read some books and memoirs from people who have struggled and it's a bit like there's two aspects: the disease and the behaviour... I find that my relationship with food and body image is so fucked up that there is a part of me that wishes I had that self control. It's kind of a statement of how powerful that aspect of our society is that I can have that brief moment of that thought while reading about a mental illness. We're all messed up with these things and Megan Trainor is so young and sheltered, I'm not surprised the sentiment came out superficially instead of being able to really self-examine. Her music comes across exactly that way: decent intention, but with that high school superficial mindset that could benefit from more maturity.

"I find that my relationship with food and body image is so fucked up that there is a part of me that wishes I had that self control."

Thank you so much for saying this, anon. =/ I know it's wrong and awful (and as someone with other mental illness I know exactly how I'd feel if someone said they wished they were whatever enough to have what I have) but I can't help that reaction when I'm at my worst. It really blows but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way sometimes.

That line from the song really bothers me. I wish it weren't there because it's such a good song otherwise (imo).
