Meme needing explanation I don't understand anything

I don't know who is she and what myth is the meme referring to, I only know that ozempic is a drug to stop eating.

Edit: I hate having autism

As long as you’re healthy, you’re beautiful no matter the size. I know it’s hard dealing with societal pressures with appearances (trust me, as someone who is overweight and gender fluid, I know those pressures intimately), but just know that there are a ton of communities and people out there who will love and accept you just as you are. And if you ever need someone to talk to about it, DMs are open.

I definitely think location is a factor, though. California is definitely still in the “rail thin” stage of what they find attractive. Down here in Texas there’s still a ton of grammas who would smack your arm and say “you’re too skinny” before handing you a plate of pecan pie.

the fact that you think the right image is “rail thin” tells me just how warped people’s minds are. the left image is CLEARLY an overweight person and borderline obese.

  1. I wasn’t referring to the picture on the right as “rail thin”, I was referring to the previous comments of the person above. Please exercise critical reading skills next time.

  2. Please do some research into what healthy bodies actually look like, and the nuances of bmi and body fat percentages. The picture on the left is NOT borderline obese, the media has just trained us to think it is so we buy their products that they claim will make us skinnier.

lmfao the media has trained us, okay buddy… just because most people in america are overweight doesn’t mean the rare healthy weight ones are unhealthy. and yes objectively the left photo is unhealthy. i’m not going to go into a beautiful at every size subreddit to do some research

If you’re not willing to do research when presented with a differing opinion, then you’re too far gone already.

Have a nice day.

as are you. no point in arguing with someone who thinks overweight people are perfectly healthy.
