"To the guys who pointed and laughed when I took my sarong off today at Mt Maunganui Beach, bearing my soul (my bikini body) to the world, I just want to say (excuse my language but) f*** you!," she wrote.
"It's because of dickheads like you that people are so incredibly insecure about their body image.
Callers to the Andrew Dickens Show shared there experiences of body shaming, with many asking the question why people feel the need to judge what others look like.
One woman said throughout her childhood, she had been made fun of and constantly reminded to eat more food as she was underweight.
