Body Shaming Not Acceptable In Society : Kerala High Court

The Kerala High Court has condemnded body shaming, saying that it's not acceptable in the society.

Justice PV Kunhikrishnan made these comments in the order granting bail to businessman Boby Chemmanur in a case for making sexually coloured remarks against an actor.

The Court observed :

“Before concluding, I am forced to say that body shaming is not acceptable in our society. Comments about the body of a person as too fat, too skinny, too short, too tall, too dark, too black etc. should be avoided. There is a sense that we are all “too something”, and we are all “not enough”. This is life. Our bodies will change, our minds will change and our hearts will change. Everybody should be vigilant while making comments about others, whether they are men or women. I leave it there.”
