Really now



Today I heard about how a few days ago, a particular cheer team's coach called out all the girls in the cheer team had them line up and then called them all 'fat' and that they have to lose weight. A friend of mine was there, she is 46kg.

The coach then walked down the row and explicitly told each girl how much weight she had to lose. 'You look like a fat monkey, you need to lose 4kg'. And so on.

To top it all off, the coach then collated all those numbers and publicized it all in the whatsapp group, with the names of each girl and how much weight they should lose.

I'm not sure what upsets me more in this story. The fact that the coach would do such things, or the fact that each and every single one of the girls accepted what they were told and started to skip meals to achieve those ridiculous targets.

This is complete utter bullshit.
