Three days before her birthday, reality TV queen Kim Kardashian spoke out against bullying by posting on Instagram last Sunday, October 19. The statement she posted read: " The 'gay boy' you punched in the hall today. Committed suicide a few minutes ago. That girl you called a slut in the class today. She's a virgin. The boy you called lame. He has to work every night to support his family. That girl you pushed down the other day. She's already being abused at home."
The statement continued, "That girl you called fat. She's starving herself. The old man you made fun of cause of the ugly scars. He fought for our country. The boy you made fun of for crying. His mother is dying. You think you freaking know them. Guess what? You don't! Re-post if you are against bullying. I bet of you won't, but re-post this if you're that with a heart."
Kim also added the following caption and hashtags that read: "you think you know but sometimes you just don't #IHateBullying #MeanCommentsIsBullyingToo." The message was a huge deal for the 34-year old wife of Kanye West since she also became a victim of bullying at some point when she was still pregnant with now 1-year old North West. Many called her "fat" and even criticized her from wearing heels while she was then heavy with her first daughter.
"I think it's a little bully-ish to call a pregnant woman fat. I mean what do you expect? I hope I gain weight. I'm a little heavy," Kim said in an interview on The Tonight Show back in March last year. "I think it's kind of mean just all the comments that I see, whether it's 'she's wearing heels!' That makes me feel good and sexy at least being heavier so if that makes me feel good my baby will feel good," added Kim.
Though the image looked like it was just re-posted, we're glad the KUWTK star is taking her stand on this issue that's been plaguing our society for the longest time. Her gesture has surely made an impact to her 20 million followers. Way to go, Kim!
