she was too ugly to rape

It is vile, but it's also hilarious to me how much feminists talk about "body positivity," but then, when the gloves come off, it's right back to junior high school level hierarchies of female status based on who's the prettiest.

It's the paradox of feminism. They all talk about "sisterhood," but then they're as vicious as possible to one another.

Rad fems aren't into body positivity are they? That's more of a lib fem stance. All of the people I know who insist how much they deeply love their fat curves and berate others for even mentioning losing a bit of weight/staying fit are all TRAs too.

I'm into body positivity so far as the concept means you don't have to look like a supermodel and you should just ignore societies ideal movie star body as a realistic expectation or even a desirable goal.

But that doesn't mean "let yourself go and be fat" it's all about good health, slightly fat? Not the end of the world but you should be a bit concerned about it. So fucking fat you can't walk places and it interferes with your daily life? Yeah that's a problem I think.

I'm fat but that's because I eat and drink too much. Never stopped me from climbing a mountain. If you can't walk a few miles without feeling like you've run a marathon there's a problem. If a few flights of stairs tires you out, there's a problem.

It's possible to be fat but still be pretty "healthy" all things considered. But it's usually a sign of either bad diet and or lack of exercise. If you're fat and active it's probably diet.
