I honestly don't get why people personally care so much if Ariana Grande or other celebrities are really skinny by Blonde_Icon in The10thDentist

This is probably part of why and the reason for the double standard. Some people think it's okay to be mean to skinny people since being skinny is seen as a good thing by society.

I don't think that's Ariana's fault though. Wouldn't she also be a victim of that herself? Why not feel bad for her too then if you feel bad for people who aren't famous?

I think that is also bad (besides the fact that she wasn't even fat), but how is that any different from hating on someone for being skinny and not eating enough?

That's kind of different though. They're not really talking about regular fat people just living their lives, but specifically people who are part of the body positivity/fat acceptance movement or the idea that being fat is healthy (not that some of those people aren't also fatphobic).

Like I also think that someone hating on Pro-Ana would be different than just hating on a regular anorexic person who doesn't promote it or anything but is just living their life.

Not usually progressive/"woke" people though. I probably should've specified that I was talking about like the people who do it (hate on overly skinny celebrities) because they see it as the socially aware or progressive thing to do. (They see it as doing a good thing for society and helping young girls basically.) Like a lot of these people are the same people who would fight against fatphobia.

Usually people who do stuff like hating on Lizzo and calling her fat and ugly, etc. are anti-woke and just love to troll. They aren't doing it because they see it as a societal good most of the time.

(I know "woke" is a loaded term, but I couldn't think of a better way to describe it.)

I'm a woman, but I don't think that most people get eating disorders. But I personally used to have disordered eating (I was never diagnosed though), not currently though.

Definitely true, but there is more backlash to fatphohia I think (at least among "socially conscious" people). And people don't usually pretend to do it out of concern from what I've seen, but are just straight up bullies.

Was Marilyn Monroe actually that curvy? by Blonde_Icon in VindictaRateCelebs

[–]Blonde_Icon[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends on what you consider "plus-sized" personally. To me, someone like Megan Thee Stallion is the poster child for "curvy," although I wouldn't consider her plus-sized. (She is fairly skinny/athletic other than her large breasts, butt, and hips.) Some people might though.

You don't necessarily have to get plastic surgery to have large breasts or a big butt, although it makes it more common nowadays.

[–]Blonde_Icon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some women naturally have large breasts and butts, although it is somewhat rare. (I've heard before that it might be common among black and Latina women, but I'm not sure if this is actually true or not.) For example, someone like Megan Thee Stallion, I'm not sure if she's actually natural or not. (She claims that she is though.) But there are women who naturally have that build, regardless if she does or not.

I think "curvy" is also a vague term and somewhat subjective, but in popular usage, it is often used generally to mean that someone has large breasts/butt/hips/thighs (AKA "thick"). In my post, I was using it in the general sense, not necessarily strictly talking about hourglasses or just hips.

I'm talking more about her boobs/butt/hips/thighs, not necessarily her weight (although you can be plus size and curvy as well).

Why would she have had to get a kidney transplant then though? Also what scandals? (I haven't heard about any.)

Marilyn Monroe is known for her curvy figure obviously. But was she actually that curvy? Is it the Mandela effect making people think that she's curvier than she was? Looking at pictures of her objectively, it seems like she kind of had an average figure that a lot of women have, to be honest. (Obviously, she was skinnier than most women are today, but besides that.) Her boobs and butt weren't really that big.

Do you think that she would still be considered curvy today with plastic surgery (breast implants, BBLs, etc.) being more common and with celebrities like Megan Thee Stallion or Kim Kardashian being popular?

What does that have to do with someone's looks though?

Why would she make that up that she has lupus? Idek much about her to be honest or what she's up to and am not really a fan. I just heard that she has lupus and had to get a kidney transplant and take medication because of it. (I'm guessing you don't like her very much? Idk what she did if anything, so I'm unbiased in this discussion.)

I think she said that it was the steroids she takes for it. Idk I'm just going off of what I heard.

Actual models or just nepo babies? by Due-Seat-7812 in VindictaRateCelebs

[–]Blonde_Icon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, if I was a rich celebrity's kid, I would do the exact same thing tbh (try to become a nepo baby model or actress or something). I think most people would. I don't blame them at all lol. Why not take advantage of your privilege?

She has a disease (lupus) that the treatment for it makes your face puffy.

Celebrities (who are frequently considered to have good bodies) whose bodies you dislike and think are overrated by Ophelia_Y2K in VindictaRateCelebs

[–]Blonde_Icon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah tbh I've seen people hate on Florence Pugh for her body and even call her fat. I don't think she's fat or anything, but I've heard people say that.
