Skinny shaming

Shaming someone who is naturally thin by always pointing it out, or making little comments based on their weight with the intention of making them feel shameful about their naturally thin size. Often it is done by personal comments and remarks or asking questions about if they diet or go to the gym, when in fact, they are often naturally skinny.

"Brrrr it's freezing out here".
"You are so cold because you're so thin".
"Oh shut up, and stop skinny shaming".

Father: "Why are you still single? Your mother is not getting any younger, and she wants grand kids."
