A mom’s comeback to a woman who tried to body-shame her at the pool, has gone viral.
New mom Lexi Sinclair from Kansas city was at the pool with her 4 month old son Christian, when she was approached by a middle-aged woman. The woman proceeded to tell her that the men at the pool would feel more comfortable if she wore a one piece suit instead of a bikini, because “a bikini isn’t appropriate for a mother”; especially one that was “still recovering”.
In a Facebook post that has been shared more than 24000 times, Lexi describes how the woman approached her, and how she had to maintain her cool to deliver an epic response. “Anyone who knows me knows I had a few words for this crazy, ballsy woman,” she said.
“But instead I just smiled, kissed my son and told her,”I’m proud of my body. In just one year I’ve gained 50 pounds, and lost 37. I’ve grown a human and given birth to a beautiful miracle.
“My body provided food for my child. So, no, my body might not be the best sight for other men to see.
“My stretch marks and tummy pudge might not be sexy. But they’re proof that I’ve done something amazing, and I have a man that loves me and finds me even sexier and more beautiful now.
“To be honest, I don’t give a tiny rats ass what other men, or a prissy twit like you think. Have a nice day though.”
And the internet cheered her on for her epic response, with a lot of people happy she stood up to the “crazy, ballsy” woman.
