“You’re too fat, why don’t you try exercising?..” “You’re too skinny, why don’t you eat more?..”

Who else is sick of hearing these sentences uttered in family gathering and bantering among friends? We feel the pressure to meet society’s (unrealistic) standards of beauty, from the height of our nose to the circumference of our waist. We are often the subject of scrutiny from friends and family when we don’t fit into the mold of beauty standards. How do we deal with it?

In this episode, we discussed our experiences dealing with the notion of “beauty standards“. We talked about our relationship with our body and how we felt when people pick apart the very thing we are insecure about. It is an especially hard episode to record, because of how personal this issue is to us. However, this is an important conversation to have and issue to raise. We hope this episode can serve as a reminder to everyone to be kind to one another. As a rule of thumb, if you can’t find anything nice to say, don’t say anything. Easy!
