Skinny Shaming is a thing which exists and is not taken (or given) as a compliment. A person could be skinny cause of their life style, genetics, medical reasons etc. or maybe because of altogether reasons. That does not mean that they should be made to feel as a veteran to peoples comments on their weight constantly. Sometimes we might just be putting people in an uncomfortable spot unknowingly, while assuming we are being funny. Well its never too late to learn something good.

Lets know few facts with some fun explanation on when are we actually involved in skinny shaming and should not be doing so

This is a most mind boggling and silliest question or suggestion to make

Well thank you for the thought of your strength presentation. Do not, Please!

7. When you make someone feel abnormal for their thinness or say something like – “Be careful, you might break your bone.”

One time, I had someone comment on how my face didn't match my body and that I was extremely underweight. Some people have gone out of their way to show me the BMI charts of what I'm actually 'supposed' to weigh.
