Hello Everyone,
Saw many people upset which is not a good thing. Let's have a healthy conversation here.....
Interestingly Hetal's round face may give her a healthy appearance where one may think she is overweight at a glance. However, when one gets a glimpse of her entire body, she appears to be perfectly healthy and not overweight. They round shaped face may be a result of genetics. Since genetics is beyond our control, there's not a whole lot Hetal could do about it. She actually looks quite healthy which is better than being too thin. Being very thin isn't quite healthy and in many cases it may be an indication of eating disorders like anorexia or bolemia.
Yes, there is a need for some level of sensitivity around any discussions around body mass since many people get too self conscious to the point that they may do some harmful things to their bodies (especially young girls). Also, women in general have a higher percentage of body fat compared to men which is very important during child bearing years. It is important to learn what percentage of body fat is healthy. Good knowledge along with proper exercise and good nutrition and is a very positive asset for any individual. This also affects one's self esteem. Unfortunately, the society judges people based on how thin they appear looking at models who normally tend to have very unhealthy low levels of body fat.
I think any discussion done mindfully and respectfully should be fine. People should have the right to disucss their opinions freely without being disrespectful while readers should not take things personally and react. As long as people don't attack each other there will be a healthy discussion.
Please don't mind my two cents worth. I am not trying to lecture anyone but just trying to give a neutral and educational perspective on things. Moderators, please do not mind my jumping in on this. Saw too many people upset and felt bad seeing this.
Enjoy the IF forums!
Peace 😊
