It makes me so sad to know that there are people in this world who are so pathetic to be like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1793315 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 22:16:09 +0000 Kemma 1793315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: yup</p> <p>This I one thing I don't understand about women and society in general, if 95% of the population don't look like supermodels then why are we constantly trying to live up or attain to what is essentially the exception? Lets embrace the amazing-mess that our bodies instead of trying to cover them up or drastically change them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1793269 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 21:38:23 +0000 Greentea 1793269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think our culture is pretty sad toward women in general. It is as if you aren't supposed to age, eat, sweat, have a natural body or face, wear shoes that are comfortable, women are expected to epilate themselves... I could go on and on. Listen to me sounding like an old hippie... I feel sorry for the people that act and think like that, it would be rough being so heartless and inexperienced and naive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1792962 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 19:17:16 +0000 Adira 1792962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't understand at all how people can behave like this. It's so sad. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1792922 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 19:05:31 +0000 Ginabean3 1792922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't get how people can be so mean...don't THEY have mothers too? How would they feel if their mother was being ridiculed?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1792906 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 19:00:24 +0000 Smurfette 1792906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>People are awful </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1792898 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 18:55:57 +0000 lawbee11 1792898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw that on FB as well. A man commented and said his wife has had 4 kids and her stomach looks similar but he doesn't call them stretch marks, he calls them "love stories." I thought that was so sweet!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1792892 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 18:53:11 +0000 swurlygurl 1792892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is so sad :(<br /> I really hope that things are changing as there's becoming more awareness for post partum bodies. It seems that more and more women are standing up to the stigma that we have to hide our 'ruined' bodies. I hope I live to see the day where our culture is proud and accepting of mothers' bodies and all that we do for our children. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mother-of-5-shamed#post-1792867 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 18:45:16 +0000 swedishfish 1792867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love how she owns her body.
