Kim Kardashian Is Facing Backlash For These ‘Triggering’ Weight Loss Comments

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was overjoyed at being described as "anorexic"

Kim Kardashian is facing backlash from all corners of the internet over her reaction to being described as “really skinny” and “anorexic” by sisters Khloe Kardashian and Kendall Jenner.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has often been accused of promoting unhealthy attitudes around weight (remember those appetite suppressing lollipops?) and it looks like she's still got a few lessons to learn.

In a video posted to Snapchat, the 37-year-old seemed thrilled to be described as having an eating disorder. When Kendall said: “I'm really concerned, I don't think you're eating. You look so skinny," she replied: “What! Oh my God, thank you!"

Kendall added: "My purse is as tiny as you," as the mum-of-three responded: “Oh my God the compliments!"

After revealing that she currently weighs 119lbs, Khloe said: “Your hair extensions, your a--, your t--s, everything, they're heavy, cause she's f---ing voluptuous. But she's anorexic here [gestures to waist], her arms are like pin thin, they're like my pinky.”

Cleary there’s a big difference between losing a few pounds and living with an eating disorder, which is why fans were absolutely not here for any of the weight-loss comparisons.

“Kim Kardashian being obsessed with her sisters telling her she’s so skinny she looks anorexic on her Instagram story makes me want to throw my phone into outer space,” one person responded.

Another pointed out that the gang should be more tactful with their words by now: “It's so harmful for young women to hear that message, they are supposed to be role models, not encouraging themselves to lose weight.”
