Okay so this may be controversial but I just want to know what people think about this. Basically I think it is great when people love their body and are very body confident however recently I have noticed on YouTube "curvy look book" videos and there are girls or boys even, who are clearly obese and not curvy. The people who are making these videos are showing young people it's okay to be overweight?! Curvy is a completely different thing to overweight! Being overweight is so threatening to your health and can lead to many illnesses - taking money from the nhs and today people just seem to think it's okay? What do you think because I really want people's views on this.

That's the problem with the whole anti 'fat-shaming' thing feminists are trying to push. It's detrimental to young children's health as they see it and don't know any better. Then they develop bad habbits from an early age and become unhealthy and die young.
