(Anonymous) 2013-09-26 04:29 am (UTC)(link)Apparently I wasn't finished.
Also, thin women are also taught to feel like they're not good enough, just so you know. The images in the magazines aren't just about weight. There's a heck of a lot of things that thin women feel pressure to emulate which are physically impossible to achieve without surgery. There are loads of thin women who have pear-shaped bodies who agonize over their large thighs and small boobs, for example. There are thin women with large noses or receding chins or uneven breasts or flat chests.
Except those issues have nothing to do with being thin. There are larger women with big noses and even ones with small boobs. A thin woman might be given shit over having a big nose, but a fat woman will be made fun of for having a big nose AND for being overweight.
But to make it an us vs. them issue, to mock thin women for their image issues, is just fucking awful.
Saying they don't have as much room to complain isn't mocking. How about we just say that no woman should be judged solely for her looks, because that sucks no matter what size you are. But to specifically point out "oh it's so hard being thin!!!!" and complaining about it when that's the ideal is kind of a shitty thing to do to people who are made fun of and criticized more than you are.
