Salutation,my fellow Steemians,I am very very excited to be in this family of Cameroon Community,I have you all are doing great as well , though it my first time to contest in this platform,as such I will like to learn more from my fellow Steemians to upgrade my ideas of contest.
So likely,. want to quickly go into the matter of the day which is" Body Shaming".
Body Shaming is the act of mocking or stigmatizing someone by making laughter or critical comments about the shape, size, or appearance of a person.
I will be glad to see you reading my contest write up.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT BODY SHAMING?

What I really know about body Shaming is that,when ever some one is laughing at a fellow person of her or his natural body shape, some people are naturally obesity as such People do mocking them for the shape they have. So,boy shaming in my own perspective, body shaming is the act of making negative comments regarding someone's weight or size. People who are overweight, obesity are frequently subject to body shaming,, some time people with flat stomach,big belly etc are subject to this,

And some of the causes of this body shaming are: Size of the breast, skin color, leg shape, blindness and shape of some part of our body.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU FEEL UPSET ABOUT YOUR BODY?

Yes of course in different occasions, i could recall some years back when used to drink six bottles of beer before the day ends,I started experiencing my stomach started coming out too large and I felt that, am in the class of big men not knowing that when my friends see me they are mocking me, not until started noticing it because of the pot belly I had they are laughing at,it wasn't funny at all. I could remember when they started calling names like "pot belly", and alot of them jokinglyy mock me and compared me to animal like a "pregnant goat" which was not funny a timess, i felt like fighting them and gave them blow on their faces. This started bringing discrimination among my friends and I will be feeling upset every time which didn't encourage my emotions. The picture shows how pot Belle look like

DO YOU THINK BODY SHAMING IS HARMFUL?

p>

Yes of course it is very very harmful because, the victim's of body shaming will do develop the feeling of some negative emotions which will affect their body system and will not good for their mental health, it's also lower some people self esteem when you want to defend yourself about what people are saying or criticizing that you are.
It major harmful is making the victim to be avoiding others especially those bullying them and they will find themselves been lonely.
It lowers once self esteem especially when you begin to agree about what others are criticizing you for
The victim might become depressed up to the level of having eating disorders, it also causes dead just People mock at the victim and he or she feels embarrassed,he can silently hang his or her self to dead.

WHAT ADVICE WILL YOU GIVE TO BOTH VICTIM'S AND PERPETRATORS OF BODY SHAMING?

Advices to the victims,is that they should not complain about appearance they naturally have, in case of remediable situations they can apply the remedies accordingly and be responsible
I also advise them to accept themselves the way it is and make sure they not hidding from people.
Much more,I do advice these victims to develop self esteem which important
because not all what people are saying about them should be considered such as mockrey, critics.

>

And to the perpetrators,If they can not advice or educate the victims, they should stop mocking them because a times that is how naturally they were made by the creator.
They should stop complaining victims appearance , it is not good at all
So please don't always contribute to their bad feelings rather show them grace of comfort by give them more reasons to be among people with the way they are and they should be strong enough.
They should stop laughing at People because no one knows tomorrow you may find yourself a victim body shaming because of your food intake or and accident occurrence,so stop behaviors in our community.

FINALLY

Body shammers should be courageous and take care of themselves. Thank you
