She's an odd choice for a body positivity role model

Thin women can still have some pretty intense insecurity about their bodies, and the full-figured women that are often held up as body positivity role models often don't really do much for us, because it's like comparing apples to oranges. My body is nothing like that in any way, so it's not something I feel at all comforted or validated by.

What's comforting to me is seeing women with a similar body type to mine. In my case that means even slimmer than Taylor, but with a short, boxy torso.

Yeah, this. I have always been very petite with no real curves to speak of and it gets tiring to have people always go "oh, but you're so skinny, what could you possibly have to be insecure about?"

I mean, I don't know, the fact that I'm in my 40s and people assume that I'm a high schooler because I'm so small and non-busty/curvy?

DA

But agreed. People have lots of reasons to be self-conscious and "body positivity" is the polite word for Fat Advocacy. That's a narrow interest that happens to include a lot of people who were traumatized by a specific kind of social humiliation, but it's really not suited to addressing the fact that most people in the industrialized world are uncomfortable with their bodies.

No it's not. Also, your fatphobia is showing.
