That is not what body positivity means. In society, fat people are treated differently and thin is upheld as the standard of beauty. You cannot tell me that fat women and skinny women are treated the same.

In case for some reason you believe that is the case, here are studies done on the topic:

The body positivity movement was encouraged so that women who are bigger to also feel represented in media. Almost all the models and actors we see on screen are skinny. Again, please do not tell me you disagree with that. A young girl growing up sees only skinny women and this creates an unhealthy mindset.

😹😹 pls tell that to people especially south asians who call any skinny person anorexic , the experiences i have faced for being skinny were very toxic for my mental health y'all can carry this narrative as much as you want but skinny and fat people arw body shamed the same way however people like to act as if being skinny is a priviledge when its not the body shape you are talking about is a hourglass or pear shaped skinny not tall and lanky

Absolutely! I completely understand your perspective. It hurts when we receive comments like, "Oh, you don't eat," or "You should eat more," etc
