It all seemed sweet enough, and after the post went viral with almost 20 thousand likes, most people were giving the guy a standing ovation. His letter understandably rubbed a few people the wrong way, however. Women who don’t identify as ‘curvy’ or ‘thick’ felt highly excluded, and even shamed by Tripp’s idea of what a ‘real’ body is supposed to look like. Not all of us have those ‘cute little stretch marks’ and ‘dimples on our booty’ that he so fawns over, after all.
