“It’s unhealthy for young girls to see this and think, ‘I have to restrict what they eat and count calories.’ It’s unhealthy mentally and physically to think that.”
Sure. Eat whatever you want and be 900 pounds. Yeah!

Ummm, who exactly is body-shaming two young, fit, women like these? More nonsense virtue-signaling and manufactured victimhood. Exactly. This type of nonsense diminishes real victims.

They’re auditioning for a Subway commercial. They’re not feminists. They’re capitalists. Fame is fleeting.

They just appear to be trim. To be honest (and to our disappointment), they don't appear to be showing any trim.
And I looked real hard!

Well... The comic industry decided that muscular women must be built like men ( She-Hulk recent issues) and in video games they have been taking male game models and putting female heads on them ( Last of us part 2 influenced by Anita Sarkeesian etc)

Same.
Thought it was going to be like Abby from Last of us 2.
Or “it’s ma’am” type.

They don’t look particularly ‘muscular’.
and told to cover up at public swimming pools, even while wearing one-piece bathing suits.
OK, there has to be more to that story.

Manufactured relevance. In 40 years they might be wrinkled, or botox faced and looking like a pear. They oughta learn how to deal with that. No one will be beauty shaming them. They will be happy to have any semblance of youthful fitness as they do now. If they eat only 10 more calores per day than they need...in 40 years they will weigh 40 lbs more.
I guess 15 minutes is now 15 days.
P.S...the olympics is dead. Except for the paricipants and families of such and the profiteers. I would much rather work on my own health than watch that hyped up crapola.

Maybe the piece was as large as a single sheet of toilet paper.

Indeed.
Whoever’s been shaming these two is a total nitwit.

I have noticed that in watching what little TV I do nowadays, they seem to want to rape my eyeballs with some fat sucker in underwear. What the...? There is beauty... and then there is “ugh!” THAT will NEVER change, NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO!

The way they talk, you expect them to look like East German Olympic weight lifters. This was the polar opposite of calling out body shamers. It pretty much WAS body shaming. Well done, ladies.
