However this requires a comrade to 1) get hurt by reading body shaming comments that they feel applies to them and then 2) come forward and talk about it and hope we all handle it well. I’m sure #1 happens without #2 more often than we think. The danger with body shaming random jerks is we have no way of ensuring our target feels our hate without hitting others as collateral damage
Agreed, and saying a comrade shouldn’t feel insecure in the first place is a cop out to the ramifications of your own words.
