Khloé Kardashian Speaks out About Body Shaming
By:
Reality star Khloé Kardashian has received a tremendous amount of attention in recent months for her dedicated workout regimen and upcoming TV series "Revenge Body."
Kardashian's evolving physique has come at a cost, and the reality star tweeted on Thursday that she is now experiencing "skinny" shaming as a result of her weight loss, a form of body shaming she never thought she'd experience:
Kardashian also noted the confusing nature of being body shamed for completely different reasons:
Kardashian shared the tweets mere hours before RadarOnline posted an article saying she looked "scary skinny" during an outing with family this week:

Kardashian's tweets show that there are no winners in the world of body shaming.
Many celebrities and regular people are shamed for being too thin or too heavy, and such shaming may drive a person to try to change her appearance. In Kardashian's case, losing weight actually caused her to experience even more shaming.
Kardashian talked last year about experiencing subtle body shaming in an episode of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians."
"Someone said to me the other day, 'I looked at old pictures of you,'" she said, as reported by Us Weekly. "And they were like, 'You were so big.' And I was like, 'Why are you looking at old pictures of me?' Guys and girls say this to me: It's, like, a known thing how fat I was."
