5. Bless her and her courage, but it triggers some really bad memories

of growing up when young girls were subject to so much bullying, abuse, and fat-shaming--especially by the "mean girl cliques"... Those who grew up in the "Twiggy" era (or whose mother did) know of what I speak. When the likes of Kim Kardashian and others ushered in a buttock-implant trend surpassing the breast enlargements of years past, I was admittedly stunned, having seen so much abuse launched toward young girls "with hips"...

Good on ya, Lizzo, but I can't forget...
