Body shaming in schools, social-media and public needs to be a criminal offence!
I know many girls my age struggle with their body image as well as myself, I have struggled with my body image for a very long time and I am slowly become to love my body. People shaming other people’s bodies is wrong and doesn’t help them! I want to help people learn to love their bodies <3
To many young people are being targeted, mainly on social media, for there body image and it’s wrong to shame other people due to how their body shape.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about young people's body image. But we're not sure exactly what you mean by "Body shaming...needs to be a criminal offence'. For example, we're not exactly what behaviour you'd like to be defined as body-shaming.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what behaviour you'd like to make illegal.
