Meet our petite protagonist, an 18-year-old who’s been underweight her whole life. She’s got a friend, ‘Katie’, who’s larger than life in more ways than one. The two have been buddies since seventh grade, but there’s a twist. Katie has a knack for making biting comments about our heroine’s slim figure, all the while championing the fight against body shaming. The irony? It’s thicker than Katie’s hypocrisy. Let’s dive into this tale of friendship, body image, and the ultimate showdown in the bra aisle.

Skinny Shaming: A Silent Struggle?
Our petite protagonist finds herself in a pickle. Her ‘friend’ Katie, a self-proclaimed body positivity advocate, has been consistently body shaming her for years. The irony? It’s as thick as a triple cheeseburger. When our heroine finally confronts Katie, she’s met with disbelief and dismissal. Even her own mother sides with Katie, saying she’s too sensitive. But the question remains: is body shaming only a ‘big’ deal when it’s directed at larger individuals? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this juicy dilemma.
