Posting this, because this needs to be said (taken from a conversation that Brendalee started, about bullying women about their weight): Pag kinokomentan ako ng ganyan, I find myself on the defensive, so todo yabang ako ng kung ano na ginagawa ko sa buhay ko, ano na accomplishments ko, etc. para lang maramdaman ko, at the end of the conversation, na WORTHY ako ng respeto. So yeah, I totally agree: it is a form of bullying. Put a chain-smoker next to ME, and I bet you a months worth of salary na hindi maooffend ang mga tao sa chainsmoke dahil mas maooffend sila sa weight ko. Di baleng crazy-cute ang ngiti ko. Im offensive to the eyes, apparently; at least thats how unsolicited comments -- and the silent judgment -- regarding my weight make me feel. Most of the time, I have the maturity to take the comments for their good intent. But if you get hit with negativity and bombarded with subtle reminders that you will never be beautiful, no matter how adjusted you are, some of it poisons you. So I think this needs to be posted, for detox if not for enlightenment. Thanks ulit, Brendalee. :) Happy to be pinagpala ng laman. :)
