Body Positive debate gets heated – Should ‘skinny’ girls be included? Former Miss SA finalist shares her thoughts

Body Positive debate gets heated – Should ‘skinny’ girls be included? Former Miss SA finalist shares her thoughtsMovement received mixed responses this week on social media…
The plus-size blogger was dragged on Twitter after she claimed the movement was “not for skinny girls”. A few irate followers also brought up a handful of old tweets posted by the activist, claiming she has a history of ‘skinny-shaming’ women.

But the influencer hit back at the claims, insisting while she’s all for body positivity for all women, the particular movement was created for women whose bodies do not fit society’s standards.

She tweeted from her now private account; ““I was highlighting the fact that the body positivity movement is being hijacked by people who are already accepted in society and subsequently pushing out the people it was originally meant for which is fat people.”
