An influencer hit back at a cruel troll who swiped at her weight and appearance.
Karina Irby exposed the keyboard warrior in a post shared with her 1.2 million Instagram followers.
She screenshotted their comment, which reads: "She's repulsive and y'all are trying to make her feel good about being obese. Just disgusting."
The swimwear designer and body positivity guru, from Australia, refused to let the vile comment knock her confidence.
She rocked a tie-dye bikini, proudly showing off her curves during a trip to the beach.
In the image, Karina looks unbothered as she soaks up the sun and pokes her tongue out towards the camera.
The photo was captioned: "Welcome to the female body.
"Clearly you’ve had one too many in counters with blow up dolls and watched a little too much pretty porn and its warped perception.
"So today I’m going to publicly attempt to educate you on the female body!
"Buckle up buttercup. You’re in for a rude shock!
"This is not repulsive and very far from obese. Yeah I may have cellulite, eczema and some meat on my bones. But I’m a young healthy female that you could be so lucky to have a chance with."
Karina continued: "99.9% of women don’t look like a Barbie doll.
"99.9% of women have cellulite, lumps, dumps, scars, stretch marks, muscle and skin.
"99.9% of women would never date you because of your repulsive outlook on what a female should look like.
"And as for people supporting what I stand for (body positivity and acceptance).
"Perhaps if more people where being themselves online and companies shared and marketed different body types you’d be better educated by now.
"I’m glad we got to have this chat."
Karina's post has garnered 11,200 likes in just three hours – and many took to the comments section to praise her for ignoring the hate.
One Instagram user said: "You look amazing. Keep living your best life and doing you.
"Only people who are unhappy with themselves feel the need to tear others down. Slay Queen."
Another commented: "Perfect response."
And a third added: "You tell them!"
