Body Shaming

Body image is a fad that currently shapes society—literally. 89% of girls

have dieted by the time they are 17 and 45% of boys and girls in grades 3-6 want

to be thinner. With the fear of being “fat” or “ugly”, many adults and children

turn to eating disorders to fit the image. In the United States alone, 20

million women and 10 million men will suffer from significant eating disorders

at some point in their lives. Not only have these diseases become more

prominent, for females between 15 and 24 years old who suffer from anorexia

nervosa, the mortality rate associated with the disease is nearly twelve times

higher than any other cause of death. I am not promoting the idea that being

over- weight is perfectly fine, but body shaming is not. There is a fine line

between being in shape and fitting the shape of what society thinks is

correct.

A fat acceptance blogger recently created a hashtag #fatmicroagressions, to

allow people who have experienced body shaming to share their stories. Some of

the stories associated with the tweets are disheartening. “I am constantly

underestimated. My intelligence, my strength, my talents, my tenacity, my

cleanliness, my humanity.” Melissa McEwan tweeted on December 11, 2013, sharing

her experience with body shaming. Phil Prehn tweeted, “Being told your wife is

attractive w/ the questioning voice tone clearly implying “How did YOU attract

such a beauty.”

Fat shaming or body shaming in general is an every-day occurrence. Not only

does body shaming create low self-esteem, poor eating habits, and correct body

care, but there seems to be no change in amount that it happens. Every body is a

different body with many different cares and need. Placing a stereotype on what

a “perfect body” should look like is an unrealistic goal that hurts everyone in

the long run.

There is a preconceived idea that shaming people for their weight will in

turn cause them to become more motivated to lose the weight. This theory has

been endlessly disproven through several studies that show that body shaming in

turn only makes people feel bad about themselves, often causing them to turn to

food for comfort. During the study, women of all different weights were asked to

watch a video that shames people for being fat. After watching the video, 93

women in the overweight category ate more calories and feel less control with

their eating. Women in the normal weight category, however, did not.

Playboy model, Dani Mathers, recently posted a “story” on her snapchat of an

elderly women undressed in the locker room at a gym. The picture was captioned

‘If I can’t unsee this then you can’t either’. Mathers claimed to only intend to

send the picture to her friend, however, the picture quickly made its way around

the internet, sparking outrage. Mather’s is now banned from L.A. Fitness gyms

across the country and faces potential jail time. The entire situation could

have been avoided by simply leaving the women to do her business, instead of

posting it on the internet.

There is no excuse or reason for someone to body shame. It creates a series

of problems that could have been prevented with the simple elimination of words.

There is nothing wrong with not fitting the ideal shape of a “perfect body” and

there is nothing wrong with you if you do. However, there is something wrong

with thinking that shaming people for their weight is ever OK. Positivity should

be spread, especially when it is related to body image. Next time you see

someone body shaming, please put a stop to it. The problem is not going to be

fixed unless people begin to take a stand on the issue. There is no reason for

anyone to body shame, and there is no reason for you to not stop it when you see

it.
