By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Not a day goes by on here that I don’t see comments body shaming slim women.

Whether it’s being referred too as a stick insect or a bag of bones or that we are all skin and bones. And it’s truly sad that only occasionally do people even call them out on their comments.

And can we ditch the term ‘real women’ for describing larger body sizes too, I’m a real woman too actually!

You don’t need to put another body type down to express a preference!

Calm down love, if you get anymore worked up you'll fly away in a stiff breeze.

I'm joking everyone, relax.

It might require more of a gust.

I really don’t understand why anyone feels the need to comment negatively regarding another persons body.

If someone isn’t to your preference then pass on by. If their body isn’t to you liking and you’re judging them on that alone, then why hang around to comment.

Cue all the “don’t worry they only say they like fat women because they’re desperate for a shag” type posts.

And not forgetting all the “hot pics is full of slim women, that proves that fat women are an afterthought” type posts.

Because honestly, all sizes get slagged off on Fab if you look for it - there is no happy medium (no pun intended!)

Well then it's been called out surely we shouldn't all just jump on someone for saying the wrong word if it's been called out and the person has apologised there's no need for any of this.

Yeah, I don't like it. We're ALL real women, FFS! I was very slim growing up, now I'm fat, so I see both sides.

But sadly, I feel most body shaming comes from other women. We need to stop & support each other more

I think it's always depressing when expressing a preference is very much at the expense of the opposite extreme.

And it does always seem to be slim women who get it most on here, specifically when being compared ina negative way to larger women.

As you say it's not okay and feels all too common

I mean yeah, you're absolutely right, and it'd be wonderful if we all did.

But we mostly don't, and unfortunately some people derive their self esteem through the reduction of others.

Moreover, I think it's when the sycophantic enter the fray, begging for scraps and attention, feeding those what they crave. That in itself can lead to the nasty comparisons of the "real" etc.

I said the other side of this in one of the pet hate threads.

Being nasty about slim women isn’t a compliment to bigger women. Likewise the other way round.

The “real woman” thing really bugs me. We’re all bloody real women.

On the upside though I like it when people show who they are and how they think so I’d rather they kept voicing it so we know

It happens to all shapes and sizes on here. There are slimmer and larger women who call out people putting others down. Remember though the words used in your OP trigger you so you remember them more than the insults directed towards larger women. It's the same thing just different packaging unfortunately. It's a part of life not one demographic has it easier than the other

At the end of the day , there’s no need for anyone to be commenting on someone else’s appearance in a negative fashion.

We all have preferences and there are healthy ways of conveying them.

If someone is conveying them in the opposite way, it’s just a clear red flag and a good warning sign to avoid them!

It isn’t exclusive to newbies. There are folks who have been around here a while, and frequent the forums, that continue to trip over themselves to compliment a group while throwing the others under the bus.

Besides, maybe folks who are new should take some time to observe trends before jumping in two feet first to participate in a thread that:

a) has been done to death before

b) gets them soundly chastised for using phrasing that they (a full grown adult) should have the tact to word better

Intent vs impact and all that.

I think you're right I think sometimes calling someone out can be helpful if they didn't realise that their comment could be offensive however if someone is intending on being offensive it won't make air medifference whatsoever.

You’re probably right! I probably need to learn to just step away from Fab when I’m getting irate! Right, I’m off to destress with some online shopping for my first visit to Cupid’s next week

Same goes for size Queens who only want massive dicks inside them - cock size'ist

Some women state they only want a fella with a gym bod - dadbod'ist

Some women say they won't look at anyone under 5'11" - height'ist

Some women say they only want BBC - racist? Maybe not!

Pretty sure we all just have preferences. There's absolutely no need to shame the things that we'd rather not have though.

Let's all just get along and have a nice big orgy round mine!

Welcome to the world of the internet male.

If we're not being compared to to Henry Caville/Tom Hardy/Current lead male in this months popular box set, we're judged on height, hair colour, lack of hair, too much body hair, cock too short or too thin, being too 'Alpha male' not being 'Alpha male' enough, being called a fat old man, dirty old man, being arrogant/cocky...or not confident enough and if we hold the wrong opinion for that particular day/group we fall in to the category of not being 'a real man' or just looked at as irrelevant and ignored - which you can't get upset about because you're supposed to Man Up!- although if i suggested that the OP should do the same, or Woman Up, i've little doubt the reaction would be decidedly different than if it was the other way round

Having been on both sides of the spectrum during my time on Fab, (going from size 6 to 16) I think you’re overreacting, OP.

People are allowed to express a preference. If there are threads where being a BBW is celebrated, why do you take it personally?

There are people of all shapes and sizes here and preferences are so varied. Just because someone expresses a preference of a body type you’re not, just scroll on.

"Not a day goes by on here that I don’t see comments body shaming slim women.

Whether it’s being referred too as a stick insect or a bag of bones or that we are all skin and bones. And it’s truly sad that only occasionally do people even call them out on their comments.

And can we ditch the term ‘real women’ for describing larger body sizes too, I’m a real woman too actually!

You don’t need to put another body type down to express a preference! "

Yeah I don't get. There's some pretty shitty comments made. One can express their like for one body type, cock, pussy, colour, height without needing to express dislike of anything else. Seems to have got a lot worse lately too. We had people slagging off educated folks and intelligent folks recently... I mean wtf!

Or maybe just maybe slimmer women dont get the same volume of abuse we bigger women get by private message. I've had people message me with all sorts of comments from porky to this is fab swingers not fat swingers etc. So we are very much body shamed. I personally dont go into the slimmer women appreciation threads as ive no doubt the same happens there and what I dont know cant hurt me.

Wasn't on the other threads so have no comment to add there.

But if you choose to revel in the adoration of the fabbers who's preferences you match, and take compliments based solely on the physical, surely you have to be thick skinned enough and prepared for not matching others'.

But equally that's not a get-out-of-jail-free card or permission for posters to be assholes about their likes or dislikes, those don't exist... even on your fake fab birthday

Like others have said, follow whoever floats your boat and sail past the rest. There's plenty of room on the pond

But that might offend someone, being referred to as average if they think they are not.

It’s a no win situation, just best to talk about the weather, thst can’t surely offend anyone

Or you know people could just start actually giving zero fucks what some random weirdos on a website site think of them, body types etc ...

I find it illogical how twisted some people get over random strangers irrelevant comments/views they will never ever meet in their life get ...

if someone is being deliberately nasty calling them out is hardly going to make them think oh my I better behave as so so told me off .. they are just going ignore your view or laugh at you at best ...

Definitely have to scroll on many times on the internet...many times I just disengage and go play Farmville. For my own sanity. I've been desired by men for being a size 6 and being a size 20. I'm not really into a lot of parameters for men. I've been attracted to all physically different kinds of men. I care more if you are a decent, stable and secure person.

I just say “aw thanks” now, if people feel the need to message me to call me fat. More a reflection of them, and not of me. If they don’t get a reaction, they soon get bored and move on. I wouldn’t dream of body shaming anyone, but obviously some people have the need to, for whatever agenda they have, and that’s their issue.

Let's not refer to ourselves as pigs....unless that's some kind of pleasing kink that I'm not aware of.

As far as I can tell you look fine as you are. If you want to do bodybuilding , that's for yourself and comes with it's own nasty assumptions make about you for building your body. I have a friend who is a trainer and too many people assume he's a man-whore with no brain cells. And random women/men sexually proposition him in public.....he's a businessman, a father and a husband and does not need that un-boundaried behaviour around his family.

"I've been everything from a size 6 to a 16 and I was body shamed at every size. People are shitty.

I have been sent private messages with edited images of mine to tell me how fat I am (when I was slimmer) as the mirror obviously lies if I think I look good, another to tell me I’m a fat ugly cunt, told I can’t call myself curvy as I’m smaller than a certain size, now I just say I’m average. I just don’t get why people feel the need to body shame. Appreciation threads shouldn’t be used to put anyone else down.

People are indeed shitty (obviously not all) and they make it a shitty place for the people they troll and bully/insult xx

That's shameful. No words "

Just the way it is, some people get pleasure in trying to shame or hurt others, but I don’t get angry anymore. It obviously still hurts, at times, but that’s only if I’m not in a good head space. They don’t know me, I don’t know them, so why should they matter? In reality, they don’t xx

"Maybe it’s just me - could be - but do some people take these forums a teeny tad too seriously ? "

I'm half-serious because I'm crazy.

I take mental health really serious because I don't think it should get to the hospital, jail or unalive stage.

I'm not so serious because if I'm too serious over randoms on the internet..id be taking a trip to the secure psych ward myself.

It's a fine balance.

Swingin' seemingly is a very serious humourless business "

I mean..sex and other people having sex with your partner is a very vulnerable state to be in, physically and psychologically so....... We are trying to come out intact...physically and psychologically in these interactions.

No one wants to be traumatised by someone who doesn't take your boundaries and triggers and safewords seriously.

"Not a day goes by on here that I don’t see comments body shaming slim women.

Whether it’s being referred too as a stick insect or a bag of bones or that we are all skin and bones. And it’s truly sad that only occasionally do people even call them out on their comments.

And can we ditch the term ‘real women’ for describing larger body sizes too, I’m a real woman too actually!

You don’t need to put another body type down to express a preference! "

take no notice of the jealous people on here,,, there is a type of person on here for everyone,,, i know a few big ladies but do not find them sexually attractive,,, your figure and body shape is perfect,,,

I don't mention people's weight at all, especially in a public forum. I know people who have eating disorders and it's not a joke. I can't imagine fighting an eating disorder and then being with a partner who tells you that you aren't sexy anymore. People are incredibly sensitive about their bodies especially if they have a health condition that interferes with it.

"Is it OK if I call a skinny person a fat cunt?

Is it ok to look in the mirror and call yourself a fat cunt?

Then again

And again

and again

And start wanking while you continue to do so?

I mean I've been told my cunt is fat so.......um more cushion for the pushing? I mean if it gets you off.....who are we to intervene in your..um..self pleasure.

I don't know if crying while I'm doing it is a sign of pleasure "

That's one for the psycho-sexual therapist mate....If I cry before during and after any sex act, it's tears of joy or overflowing emotions in a good way....

I don't do "bad sex"

omg! That's horrible...I hope you blocked and reported them. I get shammed for my low libido on here but I don't give a rat's arse. It's the only place I can talk about sex without worrying about triggering people with unresolved sexual trauma.

People are guaranteed in life to do shit to upset you ( intentionally or unintentially), since you can't control other people, you have to control how you deal with it.

I just say “aw thanks” now, if people feel the need to message me to call me fat. More a reflection of them, and not of me. If they don’t get a reaction, they soon get bored and move on. I wouldn’t dream of body shaming anyone, but obviously some people have the need to, for whatever agenda they have, and that’s their issue. I don’t have to give them my time or apologise for offending their eyes, lol xx "

Plymouth, South west

I also call it out when I can, body shaming is my pet hate... I might well not be everyone's cuppa tea and I'm totally OK with that..scroll right past...

But to shame a person for whatever size they are isn't necessary or cool, and when yoi receive messages to tell you you look like a bag of bones, my ribs are too sticky outty etc is just crap....

It seems to be totally lost on some that whatever size you are it does not mean you are confident or thick skinned and mean comments can hurt and stick in the brain.

It used to bother me, now I try and focus on the nicer comments and call out any body shaming where I see it.

Have to say though, it seems to be women shaming and labelling women that's way worse than the men from what I've seen xx

"Having been on both sides of the spectrum during my time on Fab, (going from size 6 to 16) I think you’re overreacting, OP.

People are allowed to express a preference. If there are threads where being a BBW is celebrated, why do you take it personally?

There are people of all shapes and sizes here and preferences are so varied. Just because someone expresses a preference of a body type you’re not, just scroll on. "

This isn't the issue though.

The issue is when people say nasty things about slimmer women while praising bbws

I disagreed with a woman who said that negative comments about slim women came from other women. In my experience as a woman, they come from (some) men. If you see that as man bashing - up to you. On the flip side, many guys here are very complimentary womens' bodies of every shape and size. Although - you're not.

Body shaming, kink shaming, hobby shaming, opinion shaming. All human life is here.

I don’t think think skinny women get it worse than many other demographics (ask a fat woman), but it stands to reason that a process of confirmation bias will mean slim people see the comments that hurt them, more than the comments that hurt gay people or trans people or fat people or people into cuckolding etc etc etc. which is fair and correct of course, but I bet there’s not a profile on here that hasn’t seen some targeting of part of their appearance or identity.

I live life on the easiest difficulty setting, straight white affluent educated male, and I’ve been shamed for having a dad bod, not being hench, not having a mainly hairy chest, having a dimple once!

Honestly? We're perhaps using different part of the forums but it's not a comment I see frequently. Have seen it though but as with most things on here IDGAF. If someone doesn't class me as a real woman then I wouldn't be interested in them anyway.

I find these comments are usually thrown around by guys who are trying to appeal to the majority of the female posters on a thread with a particular body type. Newsflash.....chances are you're still not getting a ride pal

"Body shaming, kink shaming, hobby shaming, opinion shaming. All human life is here.

I don’t think think skinny women get it worse than many other demographics (ask a fat woman), but it stands to reason that a process of confirmation bias will mean slim people see the comments that hurt them, more than the comments that hurt gay people or trans people or fat people or people into cuckolding etc etc etc. which is fair and correct of course, but I bet there’s not a profile on here that hasn’t seen some targeting of part of their appearance or identity.

I live life on the easiest difficulty setting, straight white affluent educated male, and I’ve been shamed for having a dad bod, not being hench, not having a mainly hairy chest, having a dimple once!

Haters gonna hate, best anyone can do is not throw it back and keep the wheel turning"

Also call it out when you see it. Some people don’t even realise how a compliment aimed at someone can offended someone else

Especially with this kinda comment

I try not to assign malice where stupidity is enough

Why do we live in this horrible world of bullying people cause how they look.each to there own live and let live.to the bullies look in the mirror take a look at yourself you are no better than anyone else. If everyone could get on with each other we would have no bullying no fighting no stabbings no shootings.and maybe just maybe a safer enjoyable country

"I was wondering how long this would take to morph into a general man bash thread

Men are the ones who make the comments about womens' bodies and this is a thread about womens' bodies.

Is it just men? I’ll need to inform some of the women I’ve seen and know that make those comments about their gender change then

You do that

That’s exactly what I mean. Was a nice thread, then the usual turn it into a thinly veiled man bash. Whatever gets you lot off

It's not turned into a man bashing thread.

Tbf I've only seen men making those kind of comments.

I’ve seen women on here and heard women I know in real life make all sorts of horrible comments about other women, they’re probably just more aware of how nasty it is so they are more careful with it

Taking an issue both genders are guilty of and placing all the blame on one is a bash to me. And if it was the other way around there would already be 175 posts here going mad.

Ok and that's your experience which is clearly different to mine

Not sure why you're trying to start an argue just because I have seen and read different things to you

Especially when you're very open about your distain toward 'bbw'/larger women

It's ironic isn't it? It's a "nice thread" because it's about slim women.

It’s a nice thread because it’s calling out body shaming

It turned bad because some wanted place all the blame on one gender

But since you corrected it, then fair enough

Slim women aren’t my type, but that’s no reason to say they aren’t real "

Another woman put all the blame on one gender. I disagreed - why am I getting grief and not her?

You look great to me. My preference is women of your body shape & size, don’t worry about what people say ??

Calling out anyone because of body size is wrong and most people have a preference though ?? and reading most of the nasty comments about say "Meghan" are from women and so no wonder men get away with bad behaviour ??

Just the women to be kind? Tbf the comments I see about "real women" and stick insects are from men. Every time. "

No, everyone can be kind, it doesn't take much... and yep, the stick insect and boney are often men but I've seen a lot of women say that they are real women because of their curves.

Point taken though, everyone should be kinder xx

Should everyone be kinder and what does being kinder look like?

"Well then it's been called out surely we shouldn't all just jump on someone for saying the wrong word if it's been called out and the person has apologised there's no need for any of this. "

I didn't read this as the OP jumping on someone. It was referring to an incident without naming anyone and expressing a general irritation. Til the message gets through, there's absolutely a need for it when body shaming of all size types happens so often.

For a group of people living an alternative lifestyle, we really should be less openly judgmental and prejudiced, whatever our personal preferences. There's just no need to say some things is there?

"Not a day goes by on here that I don’t see comments body shaming slim women.

Whether it’s being referred too as a stick insect or a bag of bones or that we are all skin and bones. And it’s truly sad that only occasionally do people even call them out on their comments.

And can we ditch the term ‘real women’ for describing larger body sizes too, I’m a real woman too actually!

You don’t need to put another body type down to express a preference! "

I see people get called out for this all the time
