I am sick of being told that skinny is beautiful. I, in fact love my big muscular thighs, round booty, and curves for days. If society didn’t shove in my face that skinny is the way to go on a daily basis, i’d probably have way better self esteem. I look in the mirror, and yes, i would change some things, but for the most part, i like what i have to see. But with all the images, messages, mean girls, gossip, movies, music, ect….I’ve come to hate what I look like. That is DUMB. For someone who is so stubborn and thinks what she wants no matter what everyone else is telling her, it is so dumb for me to let all these messages morph what i think of myself. Yes, I would change some things about my appearance. But that’s what i like about myself. That i am flawed, that i am the only person who will ever look exactly like me, I am unique, my own individual, that I do have more than just bones on my body, and that I have way more to offer than just a body, i have a brain, a soul, a personality, ect.
Don’t let society tell you what is beautiful. You yourself need to make up in your mind what you truly believe beauty is to be.
Beauty to me is someone who has a heart of gold, is comfortable in their own skin, has a shining personality, and loves others as they themselves wish to be loved.
