Pretty much just answer the title question, and also post why. I hate he because she is 100% insensitive to people with ED's.

I want to hate her but since I heard her interviewed on the radio I'm finding it difficult to sustain the hate, she's super nice.

She's said some pretty dumb stuff but so do all celebrities. I know if I was in the public eye and people reported stuff that I said people would think I was the antichrist.

Normally she would just irritate me a little bit... but I can't stand her because my whole family (extended family included) is in total love with her and every day I have to hear those songs several times a day... it drives me crazy... especially since she is practically the opposite of everything I love... still don't hate her though... I can't really bring myself to hate anyone other than myself...

She's terrible, she's not even fat. She's normalish
That's how I feel. She's all about that bass but she's average! Honestly kudos to her for promoting healthy body image. I wish I could be comfortable in my skin (never gonna happen) but she doesn't have to bash skinny girls like they're bad. Skinny girls can be nice and fat girls can be bitches.

I liked her until she gave that interview on eating disorders... I found it incredibly ignorant and insensitive. I'm all for body positivity, but that's not what she does. She's one of those people who flaunts the "curvy" women ideal, claiming to be feminist and progressive. However, in the process of this she is forgetting that there are a lot of women who don't naturally HAVE curves. She and people like her talk so much about how horrible and demeaning fat-shaming can be, but skinny-shaming can also be hurtful and cruel. It's dangerous to promote any body type as ideal, and she is just so ignorant of that.

I don't have a problem with her personally.
I don't like how she says in the song, "Go ahead and tell them skinny bitches thaaaaaat.."
I've known people who are extremely insecure about their skinnyness and inability to GAIN weight, so I feel like that song is about curvy/fat acceptance, not body acceptance. . Sorta twisted.

There is so much of that going on right now. The whole Tess Holliday thing. Has anyone heard of her? She's a size 22 model that's flaunting her size. I feel like skinny is going to be the new fat pretty soon.

I hate her because her whole song is hair demeaning to those who don't have a survey figure..calling girls in the song "skinny bitches". I get she's trying to make a point that bigger girls are beautiful too but instead of making that point, she's calling girls who aren't bigger bitches. Not to mention her insensitivity and lack of knowledge for eating disorders. Ugh I hate her

My little sis loves the dumb song and sing it all the time. When I tell her I don´t like her she looked and me and said "...yeah because she´s fat" . No because she can´t sing, makes stupid "songs", is totally going for the line "when you have curves boys like you more" (sorry but as a emancipated woman I just can´t stand such sayings), she is totally annoying and I find her arrogant.

The fact that she is extremly skinny shaming is another point.

I hate this song so much I run out of the (warm) shower to shut the radio off because it was playing. It was cold but at least I have no ear cancer.

... Now I´m in bad mood again -_- .

I myself think this society has a really f up distorted version of perfect bodies.too big is big is bad too skinny is bad.though they make it look good.America is getting bigger and bigger.and alot of it is the government i think and fast food plus lazy ness not saying thats every case.any who that megan trainor ew ew ew...is just creating more problems.dont worry about your size,well obviously if ur called a bitch and being skinny is "bad" then i think of course on that side of the coin u may just worry about your size because nobody accepts your damn size.and this song was like dedicated to body shape.dont we have enough pressure.every fucking commercial is either fast food or a new weight loss thing.lose so many lbs with this new diet"... like dieting and healthy is an exclusive world people must fit certain requirements to get into.which is true.but i mean with younger kids seeing this stuff they moght start worrying about their body.im not thin like so and so.meghan trainor ugh,wish she would get her head out her ass,and realize big or small size doesnt define a person.stereotypes she did such a good job helping the matter.skinny bitches.guess it wouldnt be offensive to say chubby cows.well thats my friggen opinion.now im angry.
