[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of you are doing incredible mental gymnastics to justify your behavior of commenting on others’ bodies. But I am encouraged that most people get that it’s just flat out rude![/quote] My kid's preschool teacher saw me shortly postpartum and told me I looked great--something like that is rude?[/quote] “You look great” is not automatically a comment about someone’s body. With a new mother it can also mean something like, good job getting out of the house, acknowledging it’s hard immediately postpartum. That said, one lesson everyone can learn is that moms don’t always feel great and commenting on their appearance is loaded and could go either way. Take that knowledge as far as you need to![/quote]
