A Cow, A Buffalo, A Skeleton

Hey, have you seen her, she looks so fat in that dress, doesn’t she realize that she does not have the body for that. Oh my god, she looks like an elephant, she should start working out. You can’t pull that off you don’t have the body for that. Real women have curves. Oh boy! You should have seen her, she looked like a cow/buffalo/ rhino/skeleton/fat/flat etcetera etcetera.
Rings a bell?  Remember the girl you called fat or flat or skinny or skeleton or cow or buffalo? Can you guess what the post is about? Body Shaming.
Body shaming, is a natural phenomenon that the worst of us have to go through, this is the critical test and unavoidable too, like jee, gmat, ias that you have to pass to have a good life, after all if you and your body is not approved by society, or even your friends, your family or your boyfriend/husband then what good are you (in their defense, it is your fault that you are fat/skinny/ugly)? You my dear are not beautiful, and no obviously you shouldn’t wear the dress you like because Mr. Body Shamers and Ms. Body Shamers have not approved of it, so how does it matter that you want to wear something you like, even though its your body but they make the rules here and if they have decided that they don’t like the way you look then of course you should spend your whole life trying to look like the way they seem fit because they are the best judge of your body/looks/colors and wardrobes.
Now don’t try to give me this counter point that god made you this way, so what? Is god bigger than Mr. and Ms. Body Shamers? No of course not. You must listen to what they say, because they are the most beautiful people ( and not just by looks, but inside out) to have walked this earth, they are the ones who own how you should feel, they decide when you are allowed to enjoy and be happy and not be teased and made fun of. And of course, they have every right to talk about how ugly you are, to tell you how bad you look, don’t feel bad they are doing you a favor, otherwise which beautiful person takes out time to address the flaws of ugly people like you, it is a social service that they have undertaken apart from the heavy burden (that they already carry on their perfectly proportionate and toned shoulders) of deciding the fate of every person and judging every person?
Now don’t go on saying that Joey said, “I am curvy, and I like it”, so if its good enough for Joey its good enough for you. Because, he also dated only “hot women” ( this is a term that in the language of body shamers is used for the women who are opposite of you, who are not ugly like you, they are beautiful women, you won’t get it.)
And don’t even try to say shit like “mah life, mah body, mah rulz” to me because you are ugly my friend and only pretty people have the right to use it, you use it, you become a meme, are you not made enough fun of already? You cow, you buffalo, you skeleton! When will you learn, stay in shadow, don’t you dare try to shine, and don’t even think of outsmarting Mr. and Ms. Body Shamers, you can never have their intelligence, beauty, charm and confidence.

So you have two choices, either work hard and make something of your life and create a different world for yourself where ugly people like you and me are valued and appreciated and where there is no place for what Mr. and Ms. Body Shamers think of you, or rot in the dungeons of your ugliness, self pity and insecurities because you are not welcomed in this world of beauty, of Mr. and Ms. Body Shamers for only the prettiest souls are allowed to live and thrive and only these pretty ones get to decide your fate here and they have passed their judgement and you were deemed “not pretty enough”.

See you on the other side!
