The sound of that phrase phrase feels awful right? When someone says that phrase to you, its hard to ignore.
But too many girls and women live in a constant state of shame that feels completely normal today.
Are you ashamed of your body size, body shape, and figure? Do you think that you need to be slimmer or bigger than you are? Do you feel your face is not the way you want it to be?
The society has developed a standard of what a perfect lady should look like.
The society's ideology of a perfect woman has led to what we call BODY SHAMING.
Body shaming is the practice of humiliating someone by making mocking/critical comments about their body shape or size.
Body shaming manifests itself inform of low self-esteem, lack of confidence, inferiority complex, depression and many more psychological and emotional imbalances.
Due to this, ladies of today engage in bleaching, unhealthy dieting practices, breast enlargement, buttocks enlagement, applying excessive makeup etc.
These steps are too extreme and shouldn't be done; ladies of today should learn to appreciate their body and the body of others around them. Also, we as individuals should make conscious effort to desist from the practice of a body shaming.
HOW BODY SHAMING CAN BE STOPPED:
Treat your body kindly, tell your body it is beautiful and absolutely perfect.
Live your life a little more fully, try to have fun
Dress to feel fantastic
Look at yourself and notice the things that you love about your body
Instead of shaming/criticizing, try celebrating your own body and difference.
Doing all these you will come to discover that you have the best body shape ever
