She emphasised women’s hypocrisy in insulting others who have undergone bodily changes as a result of motherhood.
Tonto advocated for self-selection and empathy, reminding others to recognise the sacrifices and transformations that women frequently face.
“Before you body shame anyone, show us your mother… This statement highlights the hypocrisy of men/women who body-shame women, especially those whose physical changes result from natural processes like childbirth. It calls for self-reflection and empathy, reminding them to consider the sacrifices and transformations women, including their own mothers, often go through in life. Body shaming in 2024???? That’s quite unsophisticated.”
