Bashing someone for their body type is NOT OKAY. Date: 13th March, 2022 Sunday First of all, let me thank you people who have wished me from the core of their hearts for my recent achievement. I'm so honoured with that and actually I didn’t expect that much love from you people. But yes, I'm the luckiest guy right now to have that privilege. Once again, hats off my friends. You all are strength. Now, I'm moving towards to my today's topic which is related with body shaming. Totally an unwelcomed things to discuss which I wish would never existed in this world. That mentality pollutes our mind and we mock others. Yesterday evening in my local time, I was in a restaurant and having coffee with one of my colleague and discussing about the next cultural function. I was so busy in my work that I didn’t notice that my colleague was checking a girl in front of the cash counter. She was paying her bills. My colleague pinched me and told me to look at her. I did. ***- Isn't she cute?*** ***- I agree. Just focus here.*** ***- Buddy look again. She is cute but there is one problem.*** ***- And what's that?*** ***- Disgustingly, she is fat. Look at her neck, hands and obviously her tummy.*** That's it. My anger needed a portion of fuel to rise and he did that. I slapped his head. He was astonished and queried for the answer. I didn’t want to make it a public fun. I hold his hand and said to calm down. He knew me very well. We completed our work, had the coffee, paid the bill and went out of that restaurant. Now I needed to answer him as he was shouting, ❝ ***Answer me now. Why you did that to me?*** ❞ ❝ ***Just imagine, if it was your own sister? Will you pass comment like that way? What if she heard that? Will you go to her & apologize for it? And yes, then tell me, will it be enough to bring smile on her face? You dude, you are one of favourite person and I didn’t expect that from you. You are body shaming her! How rude! You liked her face and complemented it with the word cute but then you criticize her body! Dude, is that what you think? Then you should look at the mirror first. Your tummy is much bigger than your a__ (mute).*** ❞ He understood it, said sorry and we started talking about football then. But the thing remained in my mind. How easily we judge people! Body shaming is getting worse day by day. Those questions are so odd to hear! Why that person is chubby? Really? Why and how on earth that matters to you? Maybe she loves to eat much. Maybe this is her genetic disorder or something else. And most of all, the Almighty made her that way but who are we to judge her? Who gave us the authority to do so?

Being chubby is illegal? Answer me. It's their matter. We don’t need to interfere. He/She is happy with that. We are no one to ask that or criticize that. This is harassment. In schools and colleges, they are bullied for it. Why? Is that their fault? No. We body shamed them and had fun for a moment. We don’t even think that what the person would feel inside. Why making someone feel awkward is called fun by others? This is not good. One day this will happen to you or maybe with your close ones and who knows maybe with your children too. You will have none to blame but yourself. Because you forgot things but not karma. My heartiest request to everyone, please don’t do that. Body shaming is heinous act. No matter the person is chubby, skinny or fitness freak, we have no rights to say such words. Just remember one thing, next time you want to do such thing, please check yourself in the mirror first. Maybe you have more issues than the person you are willing to mock. Bashing someone for their body type is not okay.
