A post shared by Perez Hilton (@theperezhilton) on Sep 11, 2017 at 8:53pm PDTon Sep 11, 2017 at 8:53pm PDT One user wrote that her, "boob is dead," while another said she had "a zombie boob." Revelist reported that some users wrote that Thorne's boob looked "rotten"and like it was "rotting." Manywere quick to question if her boob was"normal," given it'sslightly grey-bluehueand the fact that there was no nipple present. (FYI folks ' it's probablya nipple cover.)None of the comments, even theones that expressed concern over the physical state of Thorne's boob, are appropriate. They reinforce this ideas that there is a specific way women are supposed to look, when we all know there are no universal beauty standards.Even calling attention to the tint of Thorne's boob, which Healthline noted can be caused bysomething as simple as anemia, has a hint of shame attached to it and can create a stigma around a medical condition.Luckily, there are some people out there who recognize this and were quick to come to Thorne's defense. One user wrote, "nobody is perfect and nobody can claim to be. Stop body shaming@bellathornejust because she isn't living to your standard."Though Thorne, a body positive activist, has yet to respond to these particular trolls, she has spoken out against those who have commented on her bodypast. In short: she's not here for them and their hate.Last year, for example, Thorne responded to a user who said she needed to shave her legswith a simple "HAHAHHA NEVER."HAHAHHA NEVER https://t.co/kZ6AfjIM84' bella thorne (@bellathorne) December 12, 2016HopefullyThorne will brush off these latest comments just as easily.Join the conversation about this storyNOW WATCH: Here's what happens when two hurricanes collide
