Mirko was strong. A badass woman who had earned her place amongst the boys. She took no shit, gave no fucks. The media loved to show her off, clips of her insane beatdowns almost always running on some channel or another.+
Most days, pride made the blood in her veins run hot, kicking villain ass was a tough profession after all. But some days, all Usagiyama Rumi wanted was to be taken care of â though she would never admit it out loud. To be wrapped up in someoneâs embrace and forced to relax.+
Post partum bodies! Please read full thread
Can we normalise REAL post partum bodies please. I'm sick of being asked how I am going to loose my baby weight? How am I going to get back into shape? What creams I am using to get rid of stretch marks?
Piss off.

I was told it would not be possible to carry a child due to the damage my eating disorder had done to my reproductive system. We are overwhelmed with what we have managed to produce.
The last thing my body needs is to be manipulated, punished and starved.

My body has done an incredible job over 9 months, it needs to be cared for, nourished & loved.
I have seen so many # insta perfect post partum bodies. I am also being targeted by adverts to join weight loss programmes enticing me to hate what my body has becone.

So I have just learnt this is a thing! The dip in your hips is now apparently the worst thing in the world & we must do all these things to get rid of them. But it's part of your anatomy. They are completely natural and normal! You can not change your bones! (1)
Hip dips were not an issue until the diet industry got their dirty claws into it & made them into one. They're part of your natural anatomy, if you want to spend all hours fighting your natural anatomy I urge you to think. Hip dips do not make you a "good" or "bad" person,(2)
hip dips are associated with the shape of your bones, nothing more. I beg you, do not fall into this latest trap, you are not the problem, your body is not the problem, the problem is diet culture. (3/3) #bodypositivity #dietculture #edrecovery #eatingdisorder #bodypositive
#bodypositivity heiĂt erstmal nur: Hey Leute, es gibt unterschiedliche KĂśrperformen und es gibt Leute, die ihren KĂśrper so mĂśgen wie er ist. Ob mit Cellulite oder Sommersprossen, ob extrem dĂźnn oder extrem dick - egal.
Dass dann halt Extreme als Beispiel herhalten mĂźssen: Pressesyndrom halt, weil das sonst keiner liest. - Deswegen diese Wahrnehmungsverschiebung zu âBodypositivity ist nur fĂźr Dicke.â Wir mĂźssen ja immer fĂźr was herhalten ...
Und als ob Bodypositivy bestimmte Lebensstile glorifizieren wßrde ... natßrlich nicht. Da die #Diätkultur aber auf alles anspringt, was sie in Bedrängnis bringt - wo käme man hin, wenn Leute zufrieden wären und keine Mittelchen mehr kaufen wßrden?
When people say âthereâs room for all of us in the body positive movementâ in response to people having negative reactions to size 6 people hunching over to show their stomach folds....
Uh no, no there is not. There is no room for my fat friends that need it most.

I get the need to normalize bodies & I get that we all deserve to be seen. But this trend continues to shove people in larger bodies out of the picture once again.
Their photos arenât met with âomg youâre so brave and inspiring.â Itâs met with âbitch youâre promoting ob*sity.â

Itâs also really interesting that positive body image and #bodypositivity has become about loving what we look like.
What about knowing that our worth comes from SO much more than our appearance? đđź

Letâs talk about the thin outrage that happens every time we talk about the problems of centering #bodypositivity on a size 6 woman hunched over to the show a stomach fold, blowing up in internet fame, & everyone says, âomg youâre so BRAVE!â
But body positivity is for EVERYONE.

No, body positivity is most certainly NOT for everyone.
Do you know what happens when a fat person posts a picture in the same bikini or maybe is just...existing in a picture online?
Theyâre sent death threats and told theyâre promoting ob*sity.... for literally existing.

Body positivity is mirroring diet culture & white supremacist ideals once again.
So if youâre straight sized & fit societyâs beauty ideals, your photo is met with praise. U may even blow up in internet fame for your daily photos of your conventionally attractive body in a bikini

My eyes move involuntarily, each one swinging to its own music. Theyâve danced this way for as long as I can remember. I canât see it myself, but the jeering kids let me know. The adults nudging me to wear sunglasses let me know. And trolls certainly let me know. Thread 1/5
Our society criminalizes #disability. Countless books & films allege eyes reveal a personâs soul, then deliberately give the evil characters abnormal eyes. Not all of them, of course, but enough to influence the publicâs perception of eyes like mine. #Ableism 2/5
The #blind community has many stories of police glancing at our eyes & immediately assuming intoxication, illegal substance use, or criminal intent. Those of us who are blind and Black face the dual forces of #ableism and racism. #BlackDisabledLivesMatter 3/5
Halo Top may be marketing themselves now as âbody positive,â but they are still a diet ice cream brand trying to profit from peopleâs insecurities &pain.
Also,when you truly give yourself permission to eat all food, those diet foods like Halo Top suddenly start tasting like dirt

The biggest thing on Halo Top packaging is CALORIES. Their product is literally marketing to people, âEAT OUR âICE CREAMâ AND YOU WONâT GET FAT.â
Body positive? STFU.
Perfect example of a diet branding trying to capitalize on #bodypositivity .
Itâs so gross.

PS: If you genuinely like Halo Top, good for you. This is still a diet product that for years has used peopleâs fear of fat to sell products so itâs the FURTHEST thing from âbody positivity.â
If youâre struggling with body image while simultaneously being passionate about body liberation for all, it doesnât make you a hypocrite.
#Bodypositivity on social media has become synonymous with thin, white girls hunching over to show a singular stomach roll and while that may be powerful for some people, itâs certainly not a requirement for body positivity. âŁ
Contrary to what many believe, body positivity is not new - it was a movement created in the 60âs to end discrimination against people in marginalized bodies. In the last 10 yrs, itâs become a social media trend with many brands jumping on the #bodypositivity bandwagon to make $
Those attacking and abusing trans young men for proudly showing topless pictures post surgery has the same energy & intent as the abuse that women have faced throughout history for the clothes they wear, or do not wear, or the way they look. It is raw misogyny. Trans men are men.
The trolls are angry because in these photos the world sees happy, smiling faces, bodies standing straight & proud, Only a person without empathy can see this & objectify, sexualise & belittle such pride & body confidence.
I'm fortunate to have met many trans masc youth before & after top surgery and to a man the positive change in their entire being, their holding, confidence & ability to interact with the world is profound & moving. They are rightfully proud of their journey & I am proud of them.
Thread: The limitations & fundamental problems w/ #bodypositivity rest in it's manner of dealing with POWER, in 3 fundamental ways: 1) where it places personal responsibility, 2) how it centers those already in cultural power, 3) off whom it profits #fatacceptance #fatliberation
1) PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY: Body positivity places the burden of its mission--being positive about bodies--on individuals. This becomes about managing emotions that affect us rather than dealing w/ the expectations and inequalities that affect our bodies & are out of our control.
Fat liberation address the underlying issues of structural injustice against non-conforming bodies AND makes room for people to express all types of emotions about their bodies and treatment thereof.
Real #BodyPositivity is ditching harmful, patriarchal rituals of femininity that disempower women as individuals & a class & waste our time, energy, money, & health, also getting us to support the status quo by giving money to patriarchal corporations that profit off of sexism.
Imagine how much time and money women waste applying makeup, shaving, dieting, plastic surgery, veiling, etc al, that our brothers donât even consider! Itâs like women are always socially/culturally coerced somehow, someway, into torturing ourselves.
- If men donât do it, why should we? What positivity do any of these things bring us as women? Why should we indulge double standards?
- If we want an end to oppression, why should we support oppressive systems and standards with our dollars and participation?

Read this brief thread & the conversation that follows. How does the #bodypositivity movement perpetuate #ableism & exclude #disabled people? Whose bodies & abilities do we value & whose do we still deem not suitable for public life?
Also, if youâre not familiar with it, I highly recommend reading @miamingusâs âMoving Toward the Ugly: A Politic Beyond Desirabilityâ

Unrelated: My phone autocorrected âBeyondâ to âBeyonceâ twice so that tells you a little bit about me...
[Thread] These "oral sex panties" represent everything that's wrong with what @andizeisler calls "marketplace feminism." The concept: They mask your vulva's taste/smell/appearance so you can be "empowered" to "get more oral" and "close the orgasm gap." indiegogo.com/projects/loralâŚ
[2] Their body-shaming campaign video features a woman who is about to get oral sex then remembers she worked out that day and has her period... as if that's a problem?? Do those with penises need vanilla-scented latex too so that their balls smell presentable??
[3] They claim to be "revolutionary." But they are LITERALLY invested in women's oppression continuing. If women felt good about their bodies as they are, they'd have no customers. They want us to believe we need a product that hides our bodies to enjoy sex & be liberated.
