“She needs a meal”

Having a girlfriend that’s on the skinnier side has really shown me how toxic society has come in zeroing in on protecting just one type of body image for women. It seems that all the “body confidence” campaigns and ads are only attributed to heavier set women and never show women that are lighter or struggle in gaining weight. I’m constantly having to reassure my gf that I find her body attractive amidst negative influences from social media, the public, and even her friends telling her that she’s too skinny and needs to eat more. It’s so much more socially acceptable to tell someone they need to gain weight instead of lose it and that needs to end.
