I’m plus-size – trolls call me a whale and say I should go on a diet but that won’t stop me wearing a bikini
A PLUS-SIZE model has taken to social media to clap back at nasty messages she receives from trolls.
Gianna Schiller (@thegiannaschiller), a body positive social media influencer often shares clips on TikTok, showing off her plus-size body.
But Gianna explained that she often falls victim to some nasty online abuse from cruel trolls that send her abusive messages about her appearance.
In one clip, Gianna revealed some of the comments she has received about her body, as she explained: “Comments fat people get online.”
The first comment, which Gianna sees as a backhanded compliment, is: “I love your confidence.”
As well as this, Gianna revealed that people have said to her: “We’re the same size and I look disgusting but you make it look so good.”
Another comment Gianna often receives is: “You’re so brave.”
Things got worse, as Gianna noted that people have said to her: “Stop glorifying obesity.”
Not only this, but trolls have commented: “Move more, eat less.”
Finally, Gianna explained that trolls will often comment the pig and the whale emoji on her videos.
Social media users were left in shock at the nasty comments and were quick to share their support for Gianna.
One person said: “You look amazing! Never let anyone tell you otherwise.”
Another added: “Don’t pay attention.”
A third commented: “That’s messed up, plus-size people are also beautiful too.”
In another clip, Gianna posed in a bikini, as she revealed that people are often shocked when they see her wearing swimwear.
She noted that people will say to her: “I could never wear a bikini like that if I was your size.”
However, Gianna doesn’t let other people get her down, as she clapped back and mimed: “Ok, well that’s you. But on the other hand, me? Oh I’m feeling turned up.”
Similarly, in another social media video, Gianna responded to a comment from a troll that read: “You could go on a diet or exercise.”
The plus-size beauty danced around as she ate some food and mimed: “I don’t care.”
She then added: “Why do y’all care so much about other people’s business and act like you know my life?”
