Body shaming is awful. I have not seen anyone in here (of substance) saying anything negative about her actual body - just bad use of filters and photoshopping. Getting upset for calling that out would be like me upset with people mad that a sticker is covering their face on a magazine. The covering of the real image is frustrating for people who helped her build her platform by following, boosting, for years.

I honestly feel like the general consensus with this group is that there is absolutely nothing wrong with her body! Or ANY body. She is a very pretty tall woman, who is average sized (I’d say smaller than average) and really doesn’t face the scrutiny that plus sized, disabled, transgender or non-traditionally pretty people face. None of us (at least that I Know of) are on public accounts with millions of followers walking on runways of companies that have historically represented everything wrong with patriarchal society (sexism, ageism, racism, ableism) thinking that they can change it overnight. There are so many more important things to focus on in the world than what people think of your body. You would think being called out for being inactive about LGBTQIA2S plus rights, inactive in calling out genocide, (and more) would be what upsets people, but they are worried about how the world perceived their physical appearance?

There are horrible trolls out there, who will make comments for the sake of commenting. I’m not a fan on people here who will say negative things about her actual luxe, because that’s just a really crappy thing to do. But when people are saying hey, this is what you actually look like, and this is what you’re showing the world, and we’re calling you out on it, and you get mad when people call you out on it, that’s not trolling that’s people asking to actually be represented with an authentic representative. here is nothing wrong with people wearing bikinis, or being their authentic selves, and in fact that’s why I originally followed her. Turn comments off on Photos is probably one of the healthiest things people can do to prevent reading negative things.

I’ll add that during PRIDE month, though, perhaps a better option would be to use the opportunity of feeling criticized for being traditionally pretty but not perfect ( by sh*tty ageist, sexist standards) to instead examine those facing constant body shaming : the trans community !

I highly recommend that everyone go follow some transgender models accounts, and to celebrate Juneteenth coming up, go seek our Black creators and influencers, and real body positive accounts.

Now it’s pretty awful to gaslight someone, and no one can get inside her head, so she is obviously feeling hurt that not every comment about her runway has been positive, and that not every review about the swimsuits have been positive. Nobody can know what’s going on inside her head, and given the amount of time that she spends online curating her account this is a large part of her focus, and I hope she takes the steps necessary to step back and stop reading comments or blocking comments but instead just turn comments off for a while, or using the platform DURING PRIDE to amplify non-stop some other things. Just a thought or two.
