Why is it okay?

Question

for people to call me anorexic when I am not, I cant gain weight I've tried, but if I called someone fat, they'd hit me?

first of all i dont even fall under the average, I am 110 pounds 5'4, petite NOT anorexic, I am not lying to myself

Answer 1

Quit lying to yourself and eat something

Answer 2

Let me see you are 5.4 and 110 samll bone are big bone?
If you are small bone you are only about 15 to 20lbs under if you are large bone maybe 30lbs.
Don't worry about the jerks here that do not believe you I do.
I stayed small for long time could not seem to gain any weight.
I am 5.5 1/2 I only weigh 150lbs.
It took me very long time to get to this weight.
For the longest time I only weighed 125lbs then the older I got I weighed 135lbs and so on.
I am 46 years old now and I only weigh 150lb soaking wet.
Everyone says I am skinny and small.
Who cares as long as you are healthy and are really trying to gain weight it will happen just give it time dear.
Most of all eat healthy eat often and eat smart, not a lot of junk food health food.
And you will gain weight.
Take good care of your self dear there is only one you do mess it up by not eating right.

It's not okay. It's one of the flaws of our culture. Don't take that from people. After all, it's just as rude as calling someone fat. Are these people you don't know very well? If so, it's really none of their business anyway. If it's your friends chances are they're concerned for you. If you're not anorexic, you most likely just have a high metabolism- tell them that.

Answer 4

Good point. I guess because the average person wants to lose weight. They think pointing out someone is skinny or anorexic won't be such a critisim.

Answer 5

HI there, first of all dun go down to their level where they call you names. You have to be very strong not to let anyone provoke you and in the end you're the one end up gettin beatings. Be happy coz you still have room to grow, unlike those fatso. You'll put on weight gradually as you age. You already know what others going to call you and no one knows you better than yourself, so why bother to explain yourself to others. Be strong ok.

Answer 6

It isn't okay for people to call you anorexic.

But people are morons, so they will call thin people anorexic and fat people lazy without actually knowing anything about them. Not much to do about it sadly.

Answer 7

Anorexia is like the opposite of a 800 pound person you don't see those to often. You can gain 200 pounds and still be fine...But girl can you stand to loose 200, no because you'll be dead.

Answer 8

It's called jealousy....I've always been small, people use to think there must be something wrong with me to be so skinny, as long as you are eating right and feel good and know you don't have a eating disorder, tell them to stop pushing their own insecurities on you! Walk with your head high skinny girl!!! Good Luck!

Answer 9

First of all what kind of people are you hanging around with that would hit you......for any reason.

People say unkind things to each other all the time...just continue to stand up for yourself and to heck with what they think.

Answer 10

Do not associate with this people,and calling somebody fat its not offensive.Fat means-cool,groovy
