I have seen a lot of pictures like this come across different websites lately.
I get the point. I get the point that people think it is wrong that the media and fashion industry tells us what is considered a beautiful person and what is not. But apart from that, I think this is very hypocrite and it truly pisses me off.
For some reason it is now rude to call a curvy woman chubby or fat but it is perfectly normal to call a skinny woman an anorexic skeleton. They are 'victims of fashion and modelling industry' and 'look ugly naked'. It is unhealthy, wrong and unnatural.
'When did this become hotter than this?;' Well my question is: Since when is it considered rude to comment on curvy women's body shape but is it acceptable to call skinny woman unattractive?
I was very skinny when I was about fourteen years old. An age where you are definitely insecure about your appearance. Take my word on it that classmates called me 'way too skinny', 'anorexic', 'unhealthy' or even 'freaky'. I did not suffered from an eating disorder or other medical condition, it was just how I looked. But no way I could say anything about more curvy girls because that was rude and unfair. People always told me not to complain about my body shape because 'everyone wanted to be skinny', even though people were telling me I had an unattractive body shape.
I am not saying this because I want to inform people about my high school issues. I just think that this whole campaign on the internet about how hot Marilyn Monroe is and how unattractive Keira Knightly is, is just as wrong as it would have been the other way round. The general point that should have been made is that every body shape & size should be valued, whether this is confirmed by media and fashion or not. Nothing is more attractive than a woman who is confident about the way she looks and feels at ease with who she is and what she looks like.
Don't let anybody ever tell you that the way you look is wrong. A part of your beauty might come from the inside and your lovely personality, but damn girl, you like fine just the way you are.
