    No need to body shame. Call people out on their attitude not their given biology.

        That’s a stupid argument, because if you body shame you’re saying some bodies are “worse” than others, regardless of the reason why. Same reason deadnaming is never good, you’re just invalidating trans people to make a person you don’t like feel bad.

        If they have the wrong attitude, why not criticize that?

            You seem like the type who’d start dropping N bombs if you saw a person of color driving a car you deemed too loud.

            Or maybe getting ableist as fuck if you saw a wheelchair-bound person rolling coal.

            Sure, these are shitty things to do, but body shaming is the weapon of the enemy.

            Seeing deplorable behavior doesn’t give you a free pass to body shame, be racist, ableist, or misogynistic.
