What pisses me off most about this article is the whole, "but what if this gives girls eating disorders!?!!?" bullshit. You can't save everyone all the time. And stop making girls seem weak by saying words are going to cause them to gain mental disorders. You can't go around applauding fatties for saying they're beautiful and then bash thin people for stating the same thing. That's not body positivity; it's fat propaganda.

I'm late to this post, but I just really had to say thank you for pointing out the assumption they're making by claiming a sentence can cause eating disorders. It's also completely ignoring the fact that most eating disorders are caused by mental issues first and foremost. I get so infuriated at this nonsense, ugh.

Not enough upvoats on Voat for this, thank you!

It also completely ignores the fact that eating disorders reach far deeper than "I wanna lose weight". They're legitimate mental disorders that are closely related to OCD and are driven by control.
And let's be real, these fat fucks complaining that they're "recovered from an ED" are full of shit. Going on a 1200 calorie diet for a week doesn't constitute an eating disorder.

And in the fashion world, which has long been accused of spreading unrealistic, irresponsible messages about bodies and race and weight and money, it's notable to see a fixture like Gabbana fight back and say no, we’re not sorry, in fact thin is beautiful, we meant it.
Say what you want about the gender and sexual orientation demographics that dominate the fashion world, triggering an MSM shitlib like this is very uncucked of them.

I've been carefully watching designers so I can keep tabs on who to avoid. Dolce Gabbana is on my yes list now, though I'm not super keen on their designs, there's occasionally something I like, so I'll keep that in mind.
I noticed that some of them try to tactfully NOT say what they think about certain issues. I was watching a Karl Lagerfeld interview and, when asked about what he thinks of Brexit, he said 'well, if they drive out the elites, then they won't have any elites, that's just how it works'. A very tactful response I think. I had to watch a few more to decide whether I would wear him or not, but he got me with 'The Germany I grew up in is gone' and 'I've seen some lovely burkas, but they are not for us'. Both quite tactfully stated. He lost a bunch of weight and wrote a diet book, by the way.
Victoria's Secret has been pretty good too, their show had a lot of culturally European inspired pieces, which I thought was pretty cool. They also really defend their models from being thin shamed, and they're constantly showing clips of how hard they work out to earn their shape.
Ones to avoid like the plague are currently Micheal Kors and Calvin Klein, who have both been virtue signalling all over the place, and they have both put fat models on their runways.

Triggered!
Seriously think this is what scares the fats the most. Having to earn something instead of being given it.
