Body shaming/ Fat shaming is NOT ok!

Jump to newest
 

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

So it’s January. The post christmas podge war has begun. I posted a status up yesterday about having been to the gym only to receive a vile message stating “you need more than a gym from your pics” what gives anyone the right to make comments like that? I am fuming! At least I’m trying to do something about my size.

To anyone who’s in a similar position I see you and you’re not alone.

To anyone who thinks body shaming or fat shaming is ok a massive F U!

We all have to start somewhere!

Now off for an angry cry before hitting the gym harder today!

I’m sorry that somebody got to you with their cruel message. It says everything about them and absolutely nothing about you. Sending love x

Take it as a compliment. You had such an impression on them that they took the time to message you.

Their opinion doesn't matter. They are either jealous of your figure or pissed off because they have no chance with you.

Thank you. I’ve blocked and reported him. I shouldn’t let it get to me but it took so much to get over my anxiety and get in the gym yesterday and then for someone to comment like that just hurts. He was probably just being a douche because I’d rejected him 4 weeks ago. Funny how I was good enough then!

I do wonder about people sometimes, like would they say that to the person in the gym. It boils my blood if you haven't anything nice to say keep it to yourself.

Way I see it though at least we can do something to change our appearance once your a twat you can't change been a twat.

Fair play on getting back to the gym

It's totally wrong. There's too much lack of respect that exists in some people for others. Report and block.

I did.

I’m big enough and ugly enough to let it go but it’s comments like that which would make someone else give up or be really upset. Words are cheap but they have such a lasting impact. Breaks my heart. In a world where you can be anything be kind. X

Excuse the language but that's a complete cunt whoever said to that to you. I'd gladly fuck them up for you provided they are not big and mean.

Fuck them, bury it and move on. Not worth it letting the likes of that get to you.

Unfortunately this happens far too often here on fab. And yes it is upsetting and yes it does knock your confidence.

But don't let that one idiot distract you. I'm sure you had more positive messages than negative. Don't let that one message dictate how you feel. You look beautiful as you are and you are working towards a goal.

NO NO NO NO!!!! Get the anger out yeah, but don't take it to the gym. I'd feel amazing if I was wrapped in your arms. You're awesome the way you are and if you want to change do it for you, work your ass off for you, not some horrible person saying shitty things.

Guys like him shouldn’t be on here.

Few weeks ago I had someone start chatting I wasn’t interested in him but he kept on… eventually he got the message, his last message to me was a comment about my looks & weight, I was good enough for him before he was rejected & it took 3 rejections for him to get the message.

You’re not alone with twat-faced men, we all get them but it’s how we deal with them that matters, mine was blocked immediately

OP, there’s nothing wrong with your body, but if you want to go the gym for your own self esteem then you go for it

Yep, sadly people are only to happy to do it in person too. I used to get comments fairly regularly in pubs and clubs when I was younger, then people turn around now and ask why I’m so negative about myself. If people validate your own views enough then it’s hard not to believe them x

As a person who is overweight and is well aware of it, I do wonder when I get a message do they think I don't know that I need to lose weight, we are all well aware of our body and how it looks and feel.

And if anyone is like me I'm bloody hard enough on myself about my body, the hate and abuse I've given myself over it. The lack of self worth I have, thankfully I'm working on it and getting to love myself for as I an but fir anyone out there you says the nasty things on messages a person to tell them, cop the feck on you have no idea what a person is going through and there is no need for the nastiness whatsoever.

So to everyone we are all beautiful no matter what our size

What gives anyone the right to say these awful things though. That’s what gets to me. I get that rejection sucks but move on don’t need to get personal. I hate people sometimes. However I met a lovely girl in the gym yesterday who helped me with some leg stuff and she’s offered to help me do some weights today. So for every arsehole I’d like to think there’s a nice person x

You're a good looking bloke. Women sometimes get abusive messages from men and they lash out and take it out on someone else. Don't take it personally.

Turn the volume down on the negative comments when they replay in your head.

And turn the volume up on the positive ones.

(When you figure out how, please do let me know)

People aren't kind to one another in a lot of ways and have a lot of excuses for it. I wish that weren't true but it is. And they pick on the thing they think will hurt the most when they lash out.

Don't permit yourself to pin what he said to the notice board in your mind. It is junk mail. Chuck it in the bin.

(And again, when you figure out how, let me know please)

Simply it's bang out order. Welcome to Internet, where people feel it's OK to spout off abuse behind the safety of their electronic communication device. To be fair I think it has nothing to do with size and everything to them being completely vile. If it Wwasn't weight it'd be your nose, your feet or something else. Unfortunately you need to grow a hard skin on the Internet and plant yourself in real world self confidence and self love.

They’re right though. You do need more than just the gym. Everyone needs more than just the gym. Whatever your goal is whether that’s bulking, shredding, toning, building strength. You need to have the diet and nutritional side covered as well. Perhaps that’s what they meant?

I’m well aware of this thanks. I’ve got input from a dietician as I’m awaiting bariatric surgery. Regardless what gave him any rights to comment? He was just hurt because I didn’t reply to his 5 previous “hi, how’s you” messages so took it personal. Douche bag.

Usually Dundee and around

Unicorn Sparkles, looking at your gallery I see a lovely smile with a deliciously well defined cupids bow! In addition you have lovely curves!

You are right, no one has the right to shame any one on here (or elsewhere).

It amases me that someone has that much time or energy to invest in insulting another, probably also posts about not getting any messages or meets.

Forget the A-holes, and focus on the affirmation and positivity in this thread!

And I'll have a wee dream about those very kissable lips!

Maybe I’m weird but that wouldn’t offend me. I’d be like I know, just can’t be arsed to do it at the moment.

With regards to what you’ve experienced, it’s classic retaliation from being rejected. Try not to take it to heart.

"WOW that's so rude, I'm sorry OP you had to experience a small minded person who obviously has no manners, I myself think it's great you went to the gym, it makes you feel better within yourself and at the end of the day that's all that matters "

Exactly. No one knows what anyone else is going through people don’t see the fact I worked in a gym for 2 years helping write programmes for people, I used to be a heavy weight lifter but then got meningitis which floored me left me with chronic fatigue and thyroid issues and depression and so the weight crept on fast forward 5 years I’m back starting with the basics again. So I’m doing what I can now to take back control and get back to how I was. Doing it for me and no one else. X

I've just had a look at your pics and to be honest you look great. Dickheads like that are so insecure about themselves they need to try to belittle others, try to ignore them (I know it is not easy) only change if YOU want to or you need to for health reasons.

I've been from 18st of lard to standing on a bodybuilding stage and winning. I had detractors at all points of that journey. From too fat, to too lean. There's always pricks of either gender wanting to chime in with their shite opinions. Fuck em.

I know it’s easier said than done, as I’m more than guilty of letting it get to me, but please try to ignore them.

People who have negative things to say, like that type of comment, are not worth your time.

I once had an image shared on a friends page, which invited women to post images of their curves, I said to embrace your curves, someone commented “curves, don’t you mean fat?” He was a friend of the guy I was with at the time, had never met or spoke to me, but was simply being a twat!

People like that aren’t worth your time. They don’t have the courage to share anything publicly, as they know they’re in the wrong, hence private messages. Just last week someone messaged my insta to tell me I was a fat ugly cu*t and it wasn’t surprising he likes to fuck others. It was so vile and unprovoked, it made me feel sick- how dare they say I’m ugly!! Cowards!! Pathetic keyboard warriors who shouldn’t have been able to get to me, but I’ve been feeling vulnerable about my weight gain, so they did.

You’re being proactive, which should always be commended, and have way more going for you than anyone who sends you messages like that. You have an inner strength, a caring personality, courage, and you’re beautiful- just because you’re you!

To anyone who has been body shamed, for whatever reason the trolls use to justify their spite, ignore them! Anyone who feels good about themselves would never resort to trying to be negative about anyone else. They have no need to. Sending you all massive hugs x

Agreed. Amazing curves.

Can’t understand why anyone would send such a message , but some people genuinely get a kick out of causing offence.

Best of luck to OP at the gym. The hardest thing about fun work is day 1, and hurting afterwards. After that, it gets progressively easier and you start to see results as you work towards goals, whether those are strength, fitness, weight loss, whatever. There’s nothing like seeing those initial results to fuel the enthusiasm and determination for working towards further gains.

It’s never a smooth road though, there’s always bumps in the road, but keep getting back on the horse and results come.

Some very sad people on here. I'm overweight, got a belly, but couldn't care less. Its who I am. If people don't like me for that, then they aren't worth knowing. These saddos are just superficial. Look beyond the person and look at the person inside. Personally, I think you look fantastic.

What you have to remember is that anyone body-shaming you is doing so because they are deeply unhappy and they have a skewed perception of themselves, they don’t like you getting attention when they get none so seek to shut you down and transfer their unhappiness to you.

Hiding your pictures or responding to them is what they want, they win. Pity them, ignore (block) them but for the love of the gods, don’t let them influence what you do on this site, rob them of the oxygen of hatred and they soon suffocate on their own self-loathing

You describe yourselves as “athletic” and “average” not “curvy” or “ample” so I’m not sure why you have described yourselves as fat

No I made a point not to just focus on the female half of your profile. The male (you?) describes himself as average (see above where I outlined both of your descriptors).

I wish people knew how upsetting this sort of thing is. Any sort of negative personal comment can be terribly hurtful. We come in all shapes and sizes. I do wish that people, women and men, were accepted for what they are rather than written off as falling short of a media ideal.

I've had it all my life and I'm very conscious of my body because of hurtful words.

Beautiful words from a beautiful womam. Thank you

"A man in the Fab chatroom said, ‘you’ve gained quite a bit since your last photo, haven’t you?’. I immediately left the room in shame.

It's shocking to say the least. We are all the same inside just have different shells. How anyone can call you fat is beyond me.

I've often seen you named as one of the sexiest women on the site. Don't hide. Don't apologise. You're beautiful.

I've had a look at your pics and you are in no way fat, you appear to be a nice healthy weight and sexy to go with it. Even if you were bigger there would be nothing wrong with it as long as you were comfortable with your body and healthy. Its just dickheads being dickheads they think if they put people down it will make them want to please them unfortunately its one of the most common forms of abuse.

Bloody love you lot. I did a 45 min session and then did some stretching and functional stuff. I felt super self conscious today more so than previous visits. Hoping my smaller regular gym refurb is done soon and I can get back to my safe space.

Massive thanks for the lovely comments and messages I’ve had you’re all adorable.

Xx

I've had a woman I was chatting to, start pushing to meet after just a few messages. When I refused she went through my verifications and contacted one of my friends and told her to back off and stop holding me back.

Luckily that friend and I have a very good relationship but when I challenged the other woman about her actions she told me she was doing me a favour and resorted to body shaming which in turn got her blocked and reported.

There are many aspects to this subject and the majority of body shaming I have witnessed has been from women to other women and on a few occasions men towards other men. I can honestly say I have not witnessed very much cross gender shaming.

"Absolutely riles me.

Someone I know was laughing at a larger colleague cos he was trying to eat better and started the gym.

You laugh at him cos he's big and you laugh at him when he tries to do something about it?

**I hope he gets fit and smacks the shit out of ya...**

Anyway, rant over."

Unfortunately far shaming happens too often in real life as well as online. Don’t know why people think it’s ok to make disgusting remarks to strangers. I’m glad you did your thing at the gym despite his remarks. Daft twat he was x

Nobody’s perfect, we all like and appreciate various body types. Some like stick thin, medium, larger etc both male and female! Yeah the other non male / female ones too!

It’s not down to anyone to comment in a negative way on others body appearance and says a lot more about them than it does those who are being attacked!

They have the issue and it’s a mirror reflecting their inner soul. All of which is ugly!

I looked at the OP’s profile abs thought her photos were very gorgeous.

Every decent person is taught this and sticks to it. It's the others that like to make big people feel low. I'm sure they are also taught this. But they clearly are not decent.

Your actions are a reflection on you, you've made the change you feel you need, that's a positive and with time spent with your focus in the right place, you'll achieve the results you seek.

Well done and keep at it.

Their actions are a reflection upon them, using such a platform to put others down for no reason other than cruelty slows how ugly inside they are.

They have a lot of work to be rid of their toxicity and from the message you speak of, I wonder if they've even taken the first step.

Please don't allow the toxicity of others to burn you.

"So it’s January. The post christmas podge war has begun. I posted a status up yesterday about having been to the gym only to receive a vile message stating “you need more than a gym from your pics” what gives anyone the right to make comments like that? I am fuming! At least I’m trying to do something about my size.

To anyone who’s in a similar position I see you and you’re not alone.

To anyone who thinks body shaming or fat shaming is ok a massive F U!

We all have to start somewhere!

Now off for an angry cry before hitting the gym harder today! "

It seems that is the world we live now that people think they have the right to vile, rude about peoples looks. Everyone seems to obsessed about image, to point that it does not look right.

This site seems to have far too many people that are willing to give opinions that are not wanted, and this makes it more difficult for the genuine ones.

Beauty is in the eye of the behold and it is about how comfortable you feel about yourself, or the person feeling you

Don't let get you down

The body is one of the last things I consider in a meeting,for me if you don't have a personality, sense of humour,don't take yourself seriously,love banter,then I'm not interested,anyone who's just after a model type is shallow,that's just my opinion.
