Sayantani Ghosh gives a befitting reply to a troll who asked her bra size; says, ‘I think a lot of male ego will be hurt’

For celebs, social media is the best way to interact with fans and get instant feedback. However, there are also times when the celebs have to deal with the vile attacks by trolls and face toxicity. Television’s sultry actress Sayantani Ghosh recently lashed out at a troll who asked her about her bra size. The actress not only gave a befitting reply but she also shared an important message on body positivity and how body-shaming harms everyone’s mental health be it, men or women. Read on to know what she wrote.

Sayantani took to her Instagram handle to share a powerful and lengthy message on body positivity. “A thread to end the “size” mentality! I found out today is #WorldHealthDay but you know “Mental Health” has now become the most important aspect of Health! Yes be FIT with your bodies but don’t forget your MIND!!! It’s high time we Normalise all body types, I am here for this change, are you? Drop a “❤️” if you agree with me!,” shared the Naagin actress.

In a series of message, Sayantani started off with, “Does size really matter? Yesterday in one of my interactive sessions someone asked me my bra size! Though I gave the person a befitting reply (which btw a lot of you appreciated) still I felt there is so much more I want to talk about.. Any form of BODY SHAMING is BAD!! Period. But particularly, I struggle to wrap my head around the fact that what is this fascination towards female BREASTS ?? As to what size it is ?? A cup, B, C or D etc ?? And it’s not only the boys, but even us girls also have this sort of conditioning!(sic).”

Further questioning why it is difficult to accept breasts as a body part, the actress wrote, “There are few parts to such mental conditioning. 1: Why is it so difficult to accept that it’s just another body part?? I know it has meaning when it comes to a nursing mother or certain purposes of passion, but in the end isn’t it another body part ??? What we don’t realise is that such perspectives or hype over the female breast, throw few of us women, in fact, most women get into a very f**ked up head space! 2: Where is the concept of Self- acceptance and Self-love ?? Few of us who are well-endowed start feeling conscious about it, and start hoping that ‘I wish I was flat or small chested’ and few of us feel the need for implants!!! Remember those times when you went to buy a nice pair of dress and the only reason you didn’t buy it because either your breasts looked too small or big in it ?? It’s like we are never good enough !! We are so uncomfortable even talking about it!!” 

“3: IT’S TIME TO STOP The next part of my thoughts is, who gives such rights to men?? Why do men feel that you are entitled to look at a woman this way or talk to her this way?? Maybe it’s us ..yes girls it’s us for tolerating this sh*t and not speaking up! Often we shy away from facing these men due to a feeling of shame, or avoiding such points so that we don’t create a scene and the list of reasons can go on… I too have kept quiet so many times feeling uncomfortable when I saw a man staring at my breasts!!” Sayantani added further.

She even wondered what will happen if women started judging men on their bodies. “After all, the ‘Size’ phenomenon was created by you all to mask your insecurities, wasn’t it? Oops I think a lot of male egos will be hurt (because don’t forget size matters),” she wrote.

“In a world where the ‘Human Race’ itself is struggling for its existence, ‘SIZE MATTERS’ — so let’s all have a large heart which is full of love, self-love, self-respect and respect for one another, compassion, acceptance and lots of empathy!!! And to conclude! Hey YOU!!! Love yourself! Accept yourself! Respect yourself! and well next time someone asks me my cup size I sure as hell know what to say .. Honestly I like a large cup – well obviously being a coffee lover I would like a large cup of coffee,” signed off the actress.
