Why does your obsession with your own body seep into hatred for those who do not lead a similar life to the one you do?

A “perfect body” isn’t within range for most people. People can lose weight and still have loose skin. With age we will all sag, wrinkle, our skin will thin and become soft.

The illness thing is true, but someone can have a sudden onset of an illness or a need to take a medication that causes rapid weight gain. Can they lose it? Often times yes. However they may not be able to look exactly as they did and they may have to entirely change the way they eat and take care of themselves. (Like women with PCOS, for example. You’d assume strenuous exercise gives be best results but this hormonal imbalance requires slower exercise. If cortisol levels spike from intense exercise it makes the condition worse. This isn’t something commonly known even though 1/5 women have the condition)

Some of the highest prescribed medication in the western world is terrible for weight gain. It’s also horrible for killing a persons will and drive. Really bad combination.

Why does it matter though? What a different persons buddy looks like doesn’t change your life in any way.

Regardless, what someone else’s body looks like really shouldn’t create the level of hatred you have for others who don’t spend hours in the gym each week.

Consumerism? What on earth does consumerism have to do with not having your head up your ass? You literally refer to yourself as perfect twice there so…. Pretty safe to say your head is quite far up there

Very nice work on lights over here ! Congratulation it's very well done.

Really look like this little touch of sun you can have during a winter day, and briefly yellow and life is all over a cold and gray day.

Get over in what? I am already perfect with a perfectly trained body. I am annoyed by your commercialism and unwillingness to change. My mother, after three births (I am the middle child in the family), spat on your "post-pregnancy body standards" and is now in great shape, she is almost 50. You justify this with a body positivity or genetic features, although even scientists have proven that only people with acute illnesses cannot lose weight after pregnancy, I keep in touch. You are terrible people with double standards, I wish YOU to get over your complexes and finally go to the gym

Sagging breast, extra stomach chub, enlarged areolas, and stretch marks along the stomach. Source: I had to help my mother after several births. My personality has not switched I simply used another side of it. I think the reason many have downvoted is because not everyone is attractive. I mean, if we were all attractive none of use would be. Not everyone also eats the sled to an unhealthy body. Some people have healthy bodies that aren’t exactly seen as attractive. Point being people like seeing realistic bodies. Not every man is perfectly chiseled in muscles and every woman is stuck thin with huge curves. People just like not being held to impossible standards. Also I think the last thing to mention is this is an art piece. Art is meant to be art. I don’t think the artist wanted to cause a body image war lol
