Body shaming is not okay, not to anyone and not by anyone.
No one can generate a rationale behind why they body shamed someone because they cannot. It is a very incorrect thing to do and highly unethical to talk bad things about someone’s body. Who even entitled you to such authority or who made you think you do it would be okay? No one is allowed to shame anyone for whatever sort of body they have, even if you are a President of a country. People get shamed for being skinny, others get shammed for being fat. People judge books by the covers. Who knows, that a skinny person may be suffering from cancer, who knows that a fat person may be suffering from a disease that does not allow them to control their weight? We know nothing about the other and so we should not intervene in their lives by telling them they are not supposed to have the body they have. This angers my soul because I have been shamed for being skinny all my life until I finally got hormonal problems and now I take steroids that have made me fat. These body shamers should be jailed.
Unfortunately, people still do this and that too publicly even though they realize how bad it can affect the person being shamed. Gloria Bennet is a plus-sized woman who also became a victim of body shaming. She went out to have a nice lunch at a nice place with her friend ‘Stephanie’, having no idea what was going to happen. The waiter they got was very rude and entitled. He started fat-shaming her from time to time, passing comments all around the restaurant while the women had their meals. The stuff he said was extremely insensitive and would make any person feel awful. Gloria shared this unfortunate experience on TikTok.

1. A nice lunch date with the best friend.
Via Gloria Bennet
2. Obviously judging OP for how her body looks compared to her friend’s “normal” one.
Via Gloria Bennet
3. Surely that is a taunt if it was specifically said to OP.
Via Gloria Bennet
4. OP is too kind for thinking that.
Via Gloria Bennet
5. Okay now the waiter is on to directly fat-shaming OP and that is not right.
Via Gloria Bennet
6. What is actually wrong with this person? This is beyond insensitive.
Via Gloria Bennet
7. Yes, Stephanie! Go tell the manager what kind of rotten piece of flesh they have hired at their restaurant.
Via Gloria Bennet
8. Very understandable, OP’s feelings.
Via Gloria Bennet
9. Clearly OP didn’t want to create a big scene. Perhaps, she doesn’t feel confident when this topic is touched upon.
Via Gloria Bennet
10. This is outrageous behavior. This waiter needs to be fired on the spot.
Via Gloria Bennet
This is just so bad. I actually don’t understand why is this guy so interesting in fat shaming that woman. Like, he doesn’t know her or anything, she is just a customer who wants to enjoy her meal and this guy is making life hell for her. This is the waiter’s entitlement screaming and such people’s egos don’t survive for too long. Let’s see what happens next and how is the waiter dealt with.

11. He’s back to infuriating OP, her friend, and every single person reading this story right now.
Via Gloria Bennet
12. Sane people don’t say such stuff. This waiter has no regard for ethics and respects others.
Via Gloria Bennet
13. No, let Stephanie but this man up with verbal grilling.
Via Gloria Bennet
14. Stephanie is up to something.
Via Gloria Bennet
15. That’s how you show care. This is a way to respect those who you love, by telling others off for disrespecting them.
Via Gloria Bennet
16. I am sorry friend but he literally meant what OP just told you and had the most disgusting intentions.
Via Gloria Bennet
17. The queen has arrived to the scene.
Via Gloria Bennet
18. Oh my god what a freakin’ snake! I cannot believe this. This other friend of OP, she is very suspicious.
Via Gloria Bennet
Here are some of the comics on the post:
19. That other friend really isn’t OP’s real friend.
Via Gloria Bennet
20. That other friend really was a major twist.
Via Gloria Bennet
21. Very difficult to take it all in.
Via Gloria Bennet
22. Seriously that waiter needs to be reported and OP needs to separate herself from that other friend.
Via Gloria Bennet
23. Stephanie is a legend of a friend.
Via Gloria Bennet
24. Our society really is hopeless and utterly disappointing!
Via Gloria Bennet
25. 3 cheers for Stephanie.
