Men who fat-shame women make me sick but there has to be a special little place in hell for women who fat-shame other women. It's effed beyond comprehension. Like, hello, we're supposed to be on the same team. How can we expect men to stop objectifying our bodies, if we do it to ourselves and to each other? When I heard there were some petty and, clearly, self-conscious trolls out there calling my girl Eva Longoria fat, I nearly lost my mind. My immediate thought was: Who the hell do these peeps think they are?
More from MamásLatinas: If you think Lady Gaga is fat, then what does that say about you?
Eva Longoria has spent the last few weeks straight up chilling in Spain. The woman is living her best life and it's obviously triggering the haters to hate. She posted this flawless photo of herself soaking up the sun in Ibiza and the comments were just awful.

Apparently, there are some miserable folks out there who wish they were vacationing in Ibizia criticizing Eva's bikini bod and calling her fat.
Fortunately, Eva is confident and happy enough in her own skin to not give AF. She posted another bikini photo shortly after the hate that was everything and more.

Well said, Eva! But I still have a lot more to add to this conversation.
Here are a few words for all the ladies out there who think it's okay to cruelly criticize other women's bodies.
Dear insecure, miserable, and entitled woman who has the nerve to criticize a woman's body,
When was the last time you took a good look in the mirror and liked what you saw?
Trust me, I don't mean that in a mean way. I'm sure you're lovely.
But when is that last time you actually believed that about yourself?
When is the last time you admired your body for everything it is, flaws and all?
When is the last time you told your body (out loud) that it is beautiful and perfect exactly the way that it is?
I think it's time you start treating your body with a lot more gentleness, kindness, and admiration.
I guarantee you that the moment that you decide to genuinely and honestly–emphasis on honestly–look in the mirror and tell yourself that you're a divine human being, it will be almost impossible for you to mock another divine human being's body.
Try it and let me know how that goes.
Love,
Jo
