the thing about telling people who are unhappy with their bodies to just “eat right” and “hit the gym” is that a lot of the time people who are already physically fit and beautiful by society’s standards or are dangerously underweight hate themselves and telling them to exercise isnt going to change that at all. surprisingly enough what is going to actually change that is NOT saying things like “just hit the gym fatty” and instead encouraging people of all body types to love themselves, because even if youre not fit you should still be deemed beautiful by societal standards and it’s garbage that youre not

stop giving people “easy solutions” to struggling with body image because they never work and youre absolutely doing more harm than good
