Body Size
Location
When did body sizes become thin and fat,
Which became synonymous with Desirable and undesirable,
And when did the world change to
Where being thin is bad
But being fat is worse.
When did the size of someone's body become
More important
Than whether they were
Funny,
Nice,
Smart,
Or any quality of their personality.
When did we start judging people
We've never met
On whether or not
We find their size acceptable.
I have been asked about my weight more than
I have ever been asked about
My smile,
My hair
Or my clothes.
Why is a number on our pants more important
Tan something I choose that I decides how I look
Every Single Day.
When did we decide it was okay to
Judge other people on our ideas of
Ideal Body Size
Rather than let them be themselves.
