I mean sure, individual to the extent of how thin the individual is. But for EVERYONE being too thin is dangerous for health. In a world that increasingly pressures everyone to be as thin as possible it’s important to point out the negative side and that being thin ≠ being healthy

but what about the mass of people who are genetically skinny, mindfully active, or maintain a healthy lifestyle. Why is it ok for thin people to be attacked with accusations of an ED or illness

It’s not an attack, and again plenty of people are “mindfully active and maintain a healthy lifestyle” are not skinny. I’m simply pointing out many skinny people DO suffer from ED and illness because, again, our society is cruel to anyone who is not very skinny. The person OP was quoting was gloating about being skinny which is tone deaf and, being intentional or not, puts down those who aren’t skinny

Also, I am a genetically skinny person and it causes a lot of health issues. AGAIN, I am not saying being skinny is bad or evil or all skinny people are ill….. I’m saying treating skinniness as a monolith of health and beauty is wrong and foolish
