Jonah Hill asked to stop commenting on his fitness

Men are also victims of body shaming, even if we often don’t think about it or attribute the problem to something typically feminine.

A celebrity who has always fought for this problem is Jonah Hill that, on several occasions, he admitted how people’s comments about his physique had a bad impact on his mental health and self-confidence.

He recently returned to talk about this topic, posting a post on his Instagram profile in which he asks those who follow him not to continue talking about his body because “It doesn’t help me, on the contrary it makes me feel worse”. The actor’s words refer to all kinds of comments, whether positive or negative.

Recall that, almost a year ago, the Daily Mail published a photo in which Jonah Hill, the interpreter of Wolf of Wall Street, he was in his wetsuit, with his chest uncovered, while he was returning from a day at sea and surfing with some friends. The intent was certainly to ridicule his physical form and, in fact, Hill took the opportunity to tell how he was unable to take off a shirt in public until he was 30 and how all the irony he received, since he started to be famous, it was something very difficult to digest and that still makes him uncomfortable.

Now, whether it’s a man or a woman, before expressing ourselves on his appearance, let’s stop for a few minutes to think if what we are about to say can hurt the other, even if it may seem like a compliment to us.

Everyone has a mirror at home: we know very well if we have lost weight or gained weight and above all why this has happened. It is not necessary for someone to remind us, even if they think they are doing it for our good. The extra pounds can go away or we can take more, but eliminating the insecurity in oneself is very difficult and in many cases it is never quite possible.
