I realized wearing headphones around my neck feels a little bit like wearing a collar and it's kinda nice :)

Seen another influencer do this so I'm gonna make a post to vent my rage.

From my point of view, there seem to be two different definitions of 'body positivity'. The first is the original definition - the actual definition - that all bodies are beautiful and worthy of respect. Whether someone's fat or lean, muscular or skinny, young or old, their body type is none of your business, and should not negatively affect how you interact with them.

The other definition is what I'm gonna go ahead and call 'body coping'. This is where conventionally physically attractive people, to paraphrase Steinbeck, find themselves temporarily embarrassed and suddenly not conventionally physically attractive, usually by putting on some weight. Since these guys previously subscribe to, or even peddle, anti-body-positivity rhetoric, they catch a lot of flak for this, and start being made fun of or otherwise treated differently. So, what to do? Well, you cite body positivity - you say you think everyone should deserve to feel comfortable in their own skin.

In itself, not a problem - that's the core idea behind actual body positivity - rather, the problems start when they lose the weight. Because they lose the body positivity just as quickly, since, if they were able to become conventionally attractive again, what's stopping the other body positivists who AREN'T trying to lose weight?

Body copers criticise body positivity because they think the movement involves settling - giving up on the path back to being conventionally attractive. They don't internalise that most body positive people don't want to be conventionally attractive because that kind of thing just doesn't matter to them. The only 'body positive' people that are...idk, self-deluding about not actually wanting to be conventionally attractive, are, funnily enough, themselves.

TL:DR stop using body positivity as your crutch if you're gonna disavow the concept when you lose weight.

tried to go on youtube for content for the first time in a long while only to find that it's un fucking usable now due to the sheer quantity of ai bullshit and the inability to filter content or block creators

Was talking to a friend about these socks.

Technically, legally their christian name so to speak is "mens sport socks" but on me I think they give "femme girlfriend making snacks for her androgynous girlfriend and their friends whilst they watch sports." Y'know?

Like I'd have the socks, the jersey, the paint on my face. But I also know nothing about sports so I'd be cheering like half a second too late. There for my love, not the event.
