It doesn't come off that way to me. There's one line that, without the following, might, yes, but if you're not a bitch, you're not a 'skinny bitch', no matter how skinny you are, and therefore not being addressed. Just like if a privileged group I belong to is called out for a behavior I don't engage in, I understand that I'm not being personally attacked. It happens a lot and sometimes you just have to let it go.

And here's the thing-- compared to me, most of the girls in that video are pretty thin. I don't expect anyone to want to look like me, and there's a big difference between my listening to a song, and going out and shouting at individual women who happen to be thin-- a thing I don't do.

I see so much outrage over a single line in a single song, which by the way goes on to include people of ALL body types in being told that every inch of their bodies are perfect. Yes, more people would have been happy without that line. Not everyone-- no song is for absolutely everyone.

You don't have to like the song. And I get how annoying it is when a song that you dislike is everywhere for a while, or even a song you find insulting/offensive. But thin bodies get validated all over the place.
