My 6yo just told me 'That dress makes me look fat. I want to look skinny.' : TwoXChromosomes

https://old.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/13t326j/my_6yo_just_told_me_that_dress_makes_me_look_fat?sort=controversial

And I'm just devastated. She's SIX YEARS OLD. I'm racking my brains to think if there's anything in any of the cartoons she's been watching that's exposed her to this twisted misogynistic idea that she must be skinny, or maybe somethings happened at school?? We've always been so body positive in our house.

I'm also FURIOUS at the world she's going to have to grow up in. At the world we all grew up in. Setting our standards by MEN. I'm sure I'm not making much sense but I'm just so angry that my beautiful little baby has been made to think that she's anything less than perfect.

Can anyone give me any advice on what to say to her to help stop her thinking like this? I've explained why that's silly and that skinny is unhealthy. Husband took her swimming. Am now sobbing in bed and hating this world.

>skinny is unhealthy

We eat healthy and take care of our bodies so we can be strong. I know one day I am going to hear the word “skinny” out of their mouth so I will use that opportunity to teach that “skinny” is not necessarily healthy or strong and that strong can be any size because all bodies are different

So strong your heart bursts at 45 :marseyembrace:

I've got thick thighs and a Pixar booty. My daughter's very likely going to be built the same way, so when she was born, I gave myself a crash course in getting right with my own body, to at least model that behavior as best I can.
