I'm tempted to answer that with "Only on Tuesdays" and see what people say.

I just think skinny bashing stems from jealousy more often and can some people don't even consider it rude. Because being thin is often portrayed as something to aspire people don't understand that calling someone out on it can be just as mean as calling someone fat. On the other hand, people commenting on an overweight person know full well they're being hurtful and rude and still do that on a regular basis. For most people it's still cool to call an overweight person fat to their face, or frown when they order an ice cream etc.
