I don’t care what a thin person has to say about GLP-1s. Because if you asked the same people who are so vexed that others are using Ozempic to “cheat their way into thinness,” what they think about fatness, you’ll hear slurs that have not been uttered since the 18th century.
And yes, GLP-1s absolutely need more regulation. Influencing for clinics is crazy, especially when influencers aren’t even forthright about their own use. There needs to be way more oversight around these meds while understanding how transformative they’ve been for some people.
The way petite people are reacting to “petite privilege” is so telling lol. So much of it is said “in jest,” but your lens on GLP-1s is going to differ from someone who’s struggled in a bigger body. It’s ignorant to pretend body size doesn’t add nuance.
Two things can be true.
