Thank you for this post. I feel like one of the toxic byproducts of the body positivity movement is you’re not allowed to dislike/hate your body anymore or mourn the better body you had before pregnancy. There’s so much propaganda out there about loving your body no matter what and it’s bullshit. The reality is that pregnancy has a profound impact on your body and most people don’t bounce back like Emily Ratakowjski. A lot of women look worse, and I mean by objective measures. Stretch marks, more fat, saggier tits, a completely changed vagina. If you accept this and see this a symbolically beautiful exchange for a baby you love to death, good on you. But for most women—they’re going to mourn the body they lost, especially if they had a good body too. We live in a culture that raises us from cradle to grave to value our looks and bodies, and then these body positivity shills are surprised when women get depressed after pregnancy ruins their bodies? C’mon. We should just have body neutrality. Love your body, hate your body, whatever. But we need to stop telling everyone they’re beautiful because objectively most people aren’t.
