Meaning
This reads as a reversal of blame, saying that harsh judgment says more about the observer than about the person being judged. It can be taken to mean that dignity is not granted by outside approval, and that self-worth should not depend on another person's narrow standards. It lands in a moment of body criticism or public shaming, where a woman needs a steadier measure of herself.
