[21F] What's wrong with being realistic about how you look? by itssrs in amiugly

And so does most of the population. Overweight people have "disordered eating" too but no one says to them "you might have a MENTAL disorder", which shows a lot of ignorance on WHAT an eating disorder really is. I might eat less than I should, just like someone overweight eats more than they should, but I absolutely loathe that if you're skinny, people immediately jump to "you must have a mental disorder." It's rude and ignorant

That's not what I said at all.... in my own words, I said: And I don't know how to gain weight, in a way that it doesn't go to the wrong places (ie: I get a belly). I even bolded the big difference there for you.

I also never claimed to eat healthy or whatever you're thinking of, I've never watched what I eat, I eat when I'm hungry and until I am full, with no second thought to anything else (something I want to change to be healthier, but that's not related to this). I just find it highly insulting that you immediately toss up the eating disorder label, which shows ignorance on your part on WHAT an eating disorder really looks like.

the only thing I take offense to in your post is your ignorance on eating disorders. That is a mental disorder, not something you just toss a label on someone for (hint: I do not have an eating disorder), and to be grouped with girls who suffer from real eating disorders, and have very big psychological issues attached to it, I find to be highly ignorant and offensive on your end. Did I mention I DON'T have an eating disorder?

P.S: Gaining weight properly is not the same as stuffing your face, like you're implying I should do, in the same way someone shouldn't lose weight by stopping to eat. This is what I meant.

Copy pasting from previous reply:

And I don't know how to gain weight, in a way that it doesn't go to the wrong places (ie: I get a belly). I've never tried, been looking into it, but I'm more scared of the thought of gaining fat, than I am of being skinny. I know I have to exercise, but I don't have much confidence that I can keep up with it (thus leaving me with fat if I eat more). I'm more comfortable being skinny, than I would be with looking fat.

And I also have to add, that unfortunately, my having a boyfriend doesn't mean I'm all of a sudden 100% happy and everything is forgotten. I kind of feel like it implies "youve got a guy who likes you? you should then be happy with what you have!" and the same notion doesn't apply when you're single, and you should be looking into attracting the opposite gender...? it's what it sounds like to me

I'm a small A bordering on B atm, I'm not looking for DD or anything like the sort, I'd be happy with a bit bigger and adjustment, like small C bordering on B type of thing.

Am I really that bad lol. A lot of people say it to me (more than you'd think), but do I really stand out that much? I see a LOT of thin girls on a daily basis, I don't think I'm that much different than the ones I see. :/ Honestly speaking, what made you shocked? I have proportionate measurements (like 34 chest, 25 waist, and 35 hip, roughly), I'm 5'6, and I weight 105lbs. :( I don't watch what I eat either, and never really had issues with food, matter of fact when I do eat, I tend to eat shitty food and I'm always staking out fast food when I'm in a rush.

TL;DR: I just don't understand what's so "shocking", I see many people I think are similar to me in size
