Strong and supportive women are showing off their indulgence in some mouth-watering cake via Instagram.
When blogger Jenny Rushmore posted a sketch to her Instagram of a bathing suit she was creating last month, a body-shaming troll attempted to shut her down. Her sketch was drawn on a curvy female and the Instagram's caption sported the hashtag #BeachBodyReady.
The Insta-troll commented on the post that Rushmore should "eat less cake" if she wants a beach body. Rather than accepting the rude and hurtful comment, Rushmore fired back with a body-positive and witty post. She wrote:
"To the random jerk who fat-shamed me this morning in a comment and suggested I eat less cake: As you can see from this pic my life is just a sad mess, so I'm glad you've helped steer my dietary choices, cheers! #effyourbeautystandards #CakeWithCashmerette"
