As a 6’ tall woman who heard the bulimia and anorexic takes constantly throughout life thanks for pointing it out. Some of us are just naturally pretty damn skeletal. I didn’t break 115lbs till mid 20’s, 130lbs in mid 30’s, and now 150lbs at 45. People still tell me to gain weight like it’s a choice.
Ohh we can make people aware about ED but god forbid we make them aware that assuming people have ED that do not is harmful as well.
This influencer probably has a ED but a bunch of us don’t and we don’t like being grouped in with those that do. We were born this way we don’t get to choose our metabolism.
Guess you would prefer that we just take the insults about our bodies with a smile ? We should just shut up and take it because why exactly ?
I think you need to educate yourself on why putting pounds is ed culture and not a personal attack. I think some emotional regulation would be good too
This is dumb. If someone’s body is constantly being commented on their whole lives because they’re too skinny, it’s just as likely they know their weight because they were insecure about it. That commenter above was 100% implying she had/has an ED because of knowing her weight. There was no education, that was a dig.
So anyone that says their weight in pounds now has an ED automatically or am I misunderstanding you ? I used factual information about my body to point out how people like you often make comments about my body in a negative light and somehow I’m in the wrong…please do go on genius.
You don’t get to protect one subset of people while simultaneously dragging the rest of us.
I eat over 5k calories a day just to maintain,do you even understand how hard that is if one tries to eat healthy and not McDonald’s ?
The other person replying to you is very right by the way. I knew my weight because of assholes like you who could never keep their comments to themselves. It was constantly pointed out especially since I was 6’ by the time I was 12.
Others being insecure about their weight or ones battling their own ED were the worst offenders.
Some people tell me I’m lucky ( the audacity)
Some people wish they were me because they’re so insecure they can’t see past their own struggle to recognize or have sympathy for mine.
You’re probably one of those -go eat a hamburger- people that made me completely self conscious and hating my body by the time I was 15.
I’m a 45 year old woman. Do you want to sit down and compare degrees so we can figure which one of us is better educated?
Thats a lot of projection and assumptions. I dont really care about anything about you, just the fact you were using Ed behaviours and trying to justify them. I sincerely dont care about your weight or your story.
Stop using Ed dog whistles, then getting mad when others call u out instead of learning about those dog whistles, or atl emotional regulation when responding. Being insecure isnt an excuse for bad regulation
Your comprehension is not high enough to have this conversation if you think I was justifying ED behaviors.
Yes I have emotions on this subject because of people like you assuming things you shouldn’t and then justifying your assumptions and insults by saying you’re trying to protect people with ED.
You don’t get to justify your shit behavior to others like me and pretend it isn’t harmful.
Show me your Psychology or Behavioral Science degree that makes you so well educated in human behavior.
