Emily Ratajkowski Fat Shaming

I’m not sure if you guys have seen this but, Emily Ratajkowski has been getting a lot of back lash over a simple picture she posted on her Instagram. She has been accused of “fat shaming” her friend Caitlin King in the photo by posing next to her.

Caitlin is a close friend of Emily’s and is supporting her brand by wearing Emily’s swimwear. Emily has responded to some of the “trolls” who are shaming her.

My opinion, in no way do I believe that Emily is fat shaming. 1) I think the people who are calling her out as fat shaming are in fact the fat shammers. Because they are assuming that Caitlin thinks she’s being brought down by Emily’s picture and are in fact commenting on her body. 2) it’s just an innocent picture. It’s not that deep! The girl captioned the picture “beach buns”. She didn’t say “hey, look at my fat friend!” And finally 3) in some of the comments they’re saying that they’d “bang” Caitlin over Emily any day. Now I think that that’s taking it too far. I know they’re probably making her feel better and stating their opinion, but constantly saying they prefer a body type over another is just as bad as accusing fat shaming in this way.

I think both girls are beautiful, confidence is sexy and if I even had a slither of either body type, I’d be the same!! But I’m happy on my own skin and think I’m also beautiful. If anyone is feeling down about their body, don’t be! You’re beautiful in every single way! Don’t let awful remarks put you down! Jealousy is ugly, confidence is sexy 🥰
