Olympic cross-country skiing champion Veronika Stepanova in her column on , she wrote that it is wrong to popularize the thesis that obesity is completely normal.
“Fortunately, body positivity as an ideology hasn’t really taken off in our country. All this ‘Every Body Happy’ isn’t working for us, at least it’s not advertised.
It amazes me from the bottom of my heart when, choosing business clothes or shoes on the Internet, I see a model in the photo, which I hope never to look like. I do not want to be misunderstood: overweight women also need sportswear, for someone the sight of such a “girlfriend” in tights and a tight T-shirt will be much more inspiring than Teresa Johaug. But constantly promoting the thesis that obesity is absolutely normal is wrong. Instead, it would be correct to “move” that this is a disease that can and should be treated. Like teenage acne, too, by the way, caused by malnutrition, ”wrote Stepanova.
Stepanova won gold at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing as part of the women’s relay team. According to the results of the 2022/23 season in the Russian Cup, the 22-year-old skier became second in the overall standings.
