In this age of social media domination, bullying doesn’t stop at school – it just continues online after the bell rings. One Florida teen noticed a disturbing amount of body shaming from other girls on Twitter. Hence, she decided to turn the nasty public shaming trend into a wave of body positivity.

The girl, who goes by Kale, rounded up screen captures of users who tweeted out various things that people ‘under 130 pounds’ shouldn’t wear, including short shorts, leggings, crop tops, and all the other revealing clothes. Weighing just over 140 pounds herself, she then posted two selfies, which proved not only that weight is just a number that looks different on every body type, but that anyone can wear whatever they damn please, regardless of what beauty standards others might hold.

Kale ended up starting an amazing chain reaction, with hundreds of fabulous ladies stepping forward wearing clothes that they want. Follow the inspiring story below, and tell us what you think of the response in the comments!

This isn't a response to bullying. This is simply redefining weight by shape and not by numbers. All the women photographed have very socially 'acceptable' body shapes that would surprise nobody. I would be far more impressed if someone said that it wasn't about having a flat stomach or gappy thighs and people were able to see themselves as beautiful like that, and that they were celebrated for being so.

Good points and, honestly, I expected the same, kind of. But I'd have to disagree on the "unsurprising" part. Way too many people have no concept of the connection between numbers and the human body. Go tell a superficial boy that you're a 180cm tall girl who weighs 70kg. They'll picture a giant wrestler im their heads, not a nice looking girl with a perfect body.

130 lbs = 59 kilograms. SERIOUSLY?! 59 kilograms is considered "please not wear tight clothes"? Maybe if you have 120 cm height. But a woman around 150-170 cm height with that weight is perfectly normal, cmon people!
