Actress Monalisa Stephen claps lower back at trolls, who, despite her epistle on body shaming, went in advance to body disgrace her

 

MY ANCESTORS ARE FAT.
MAMI WATA 

For Years some people have always judge me based on my look.
I don’t know why this body image thing is so important to them.
They’re forgetting I’m Human too and I deserve Everything a smaller Body can Have.
I have lost some Jobs because I’m FAT
Lost some relationships becos I’m FAT
Some People in the industry don’t take me serious Because I’m FAT. BUT
(And I also gain a lot of things because I’m fat
Met amazing people who worked with me just because of the way I look.
My first international appearance was because I’m Fat.
I can’t begin to count my blessings because it’s too much
So In life , you lose some and Win some).
Why do you have to see my Body First?
I’m intelligent
Smart
Hard Working 
And Beautiful 
Some will even Say “ if you love yourself you won’t look like that. 
No wonder a lot of women do crazy things to their Body just to be accepted. 
Imagine Living in Nigeria (which is already Hard due to Bad Governance) 
I will have to struggle with the bad Government and still Fight Body shamers 
SAD SAD SAD 
Then The Concerned Trolls 
Who will tell you FAT is unhealthy and you may die soon. Or they’re worried about your old age. 
Stop Stop Stop
My Body is mine! You have no right to Shame it 
I shouldn’t be a threat to You.
I will not Shrink Myself To Please You
There is Nothing Wrong With my Body. 
Let’s Normalize FAT Bodies.
Stop Body Shaming.
My ancestors are FAT.
