In an appearance on a recent podcast episode ofNot Skinny But Not Fat, Schumer laid out how trolls on the internet continue to body shame her and continue to criticize her that she’s not thin and pretty enough to be a leading Hollywood star.
She feels that she has a right to voice her opinions but points out that people don’t like a woman talking back as it leads to more criticism and mockery. She said,
“It doesn’t feel good when the whole internet’s mad at you. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t wish that on anyone if they don’t deserve it, but it’s been a long time that people have been coming for me. It’s just about how I’m feeling about myself.
I think they’re mad that I’m not thinner. I think they’re mad I’m not prettier. I still feel like I have a right to speak. And I think that they don’t want any woman to speak. I mean, what woman has ever opened her mouth and not been torn to shreds?”
Schumer is among the many actresses who face similar humiliation from people criticizing how they look. While changes are surely happening, there is still a long way to go regarding people’s outlook and perception about how actresses should look both on-screen and off-screen.
