this is in a humorous way but as a fat person myself I could say that it's true

And they told the Emperor that his new clothes were radiant...lol. You can tell who is in power by who you cannot criticize.

Aside from the double standard: While I’m very opposed to any body shaming, I think glorifying obesity or sending a message being notably overweight is fine or empowering is also a horrible message. Obesity is the largest health concern (no pun intended) in many nations. It’s not empowering, it’s a serious physical limitation and health risk.

Another thing that comes to mind when I hear “female empowerment” is: empowering women over what or whom? Empowering women over men? That seems to be what feminists often strive for.

The "women positivity movement" including slogans like "love your curves girl", "he can't handle your curves woman", and "you're a queen no matter how you look" is all done on purpose, which is to keep these women from improving themselves.

Women are the majority of consumers, big companies want them to keep spending their money on pets, wine subscriptions, chocolate, and the like. This is why you will never see a similar movement empowering men to stay fat lol. No one cares about us man.

I see no need to glorify obesity nor to call people ugly for it. Just being kind to your fellow human is the solution here.

The body positivity movement was a good thing. Many people seem to hate it but what men need is a similar movement about body positivity. Not to shit all over women's body positivity.
