Heyy
so like last month i saw a lot of discussion around wether this is okay or not. And am wondering what people on here think.
https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/entertainment/amp23004671/tess-holliday-response-criticism-cosmopolitan-cover/I have anorexia and im all up for being confident in your body and for them to stop putting super skinny woman on magazines and stuff. But i think this front cover, is just as damaging as putting skinny woman on it.
Ive read a lot of discussion on this and watched the interviews and i just still think its wrong no matter how they justify it. To me and probably others - the woman on a front of a magazine just says that this is what we should look like. Not once does the magazine say about this being unhealthy. She aint just a bit overweight. Obviously Being that fat is dangerous. comes with so much health problem. And obesity in children and everyone is so high that is a massive problem for the NHS so like why do we need that. I just dont get why cant we just put healthy weight people on it as promotes being healthy.
The model says
"my message isn't 'let's all be fat', my message is 'let's love yourself'".
I mean yeah we all need to love ourself & being happy while that size but also trying to lose weight to be more healthy is important.
And i find it interesting she says “Your mental health is far more important before you can worry about your physical health." Mental health is so important. But i think mental and physical are both linked. So feel like that statement is irrelavent. Having eating disorder i am constantly told about how my diet can affects how i feel, no energy from no food causes more low mood. And i think if people are eating unhealthy stuff then that could affect how theyre feeling and sometimes eating shit can make you feel shit and exercise is also important for mental health. Which is something they dont really talk about in their discussion which i think is important.
but just wondering if others think this should be on a cover or not?
