The gorgeous Juggun Kazim is talking about body shaming and how we must stop it!
We always believe celebrities have the most amazing life but we ignore the dark side of their life. We live in a culture where women are mocked for their bodies.
One of the most beloved actress and host, Juggun Kazim, has shared her story in a detailed Instagram post. She opened up about her miscarriages and much more in a heartbreaking post.
“Until a few days ago, I was pregnant. For some reason, I gained a lot of weight really really quickly. What shocked me was how much I started getting fat-shamed. One lady said, ‘Lagta hai Lahore ki hawa lag gaye tumhain.’ Other women just told me bluntly that I had become a bit too “healthy”, she shared.
She further added, “Till now, I wasn’t ready to share that I was expecting a baby because my pregnancies have generally been precarious. Last week, I had a miscarriage. My doctor has now told me that that this time it was quite serious and that there had been a lot of internal bleeding. I took a day off to mourn but then went back to work because, well, what else can one do? And the day after I resumed work, someone again commented on how I was looking “extra healthy.”
“We need to stop fat-shaming other people. People who are overweight know they are overweight. Their weight gain may be for any number of reasons, some desirable and some not. Yes, some people need to be encouraged to lead a more active lifestyle. But unless you are somebody’s mother or sister, don’t tell them what you think of their body.”
She emphasized in her last lines:
“Life is short. Let’s try and live ours with kindness.”
Celebrities body shaming in not a new thing. Many celebrities have been a victim of it. The issue of body shaming has been recognized by west and it’s high time now that we must recognize it too. This culture of body shaming must be stopped on urgent basis.
