If you call yourself “body positive”, it is imperative that you do NOT:
- make fun of fat bodies
- make fun of thin bodies
- make fun of muscular bodies
- make fun of bodies without a lot of muscle
- make fun of breasts or nipples
- make fun of penis length or girth or shape or color
- make fun of labia length or color or shape
- make fun of genitals that weren’t assigned at birth
- make fun of freckles or moles or acne
- make fun of rashes or redness
- make fun of clothing choices
- make fun of haircut or style or color or texture
- make fun of piercings or gauges
- make fun of tattoos or scarification
- make fun of stretchmarks or cellulite
- make fun of “bad” teeth
- make fun of birth defects
- make fun of food choices
- make fun of makeup applications
- make fun of the lightness of skin
- make fun of the darkness of skin
- make fun of physical disabilities
- make fun of mental illnesses
- make fun of fat rolls
- make fun of visible ribs
- make fun of self harm injuries or scars
- make fun of lots of body hair

Basically, just don’t shame anyone else’s appearance. Ever.It’s okay to have a preference (or 2 or 3 or 50.) It’s not okay to insult people who don’t match your preferences. Especially if you plaster “BODY POSITIVE” and “SELF LOVE” Blingee’s all over your page.This is the most important thing you’ll read today.
Some of you just. Aren’t. Getting it.
