Important to remember

Eating disorders are a mental illness not a body type.

Today I found my sister working out and was confused as to why. She’s only 14 and should be mixing weird ice cream flavors and going to hang out with friends not doing yoga and 10 minute intense ab workouts. So i asked her why she was exercising and she replies ‘to get in shape’. I was a little upset by this because shes only 14, why should she worry about body image? Shes already thin so i was worried she was harming herself.

Before i gave her the 'society’s expectations for the physical appearance of women is bullshit’ speech i asked why And do you know what she said?

“I wanna kick ass”

She wasnt working out to get the perfect summer bod, she was working out to fucking KICK ASS. She said that she wanted to learn martial arts n shit but first she wanted to punch like a hard ass and impress everyone with her muscles

And i was so damn shocked. Now all it seems girls work out for is an hourglass figure and a flat stomach but no, this 14 year old just wants to be strong enough to kickass. Society tells us that our bodies have to be this perfect replica of friggin Rebecca Rabbit. It tells us that the only reason we should work out is to get skinny. It tells us that girls with more weight than others need to diet and jog 5 km a day. Why? Why should we as women exercise and diet to get the perfect, skinny hourglass body, big butt, and big boobs figure to please men and society?? If we’re going to exercise shouldn’t it be for our OWN benefit? To kick ass? To feel strong, confident and pretty? Instead of pretending to know what gluten is and hating our bodies, shouldn’t we love them? Ladies, if you’re going to exercise and diet do it because you want to, not because of unrealistic body portrayals of women. Do it because you love yourself Do it to become strong Do to to become confident Do it because you want to show off your muscles Do it like a girl, like a 14 year old girl.

Do it because you wanna kick ass.

And don’t let anyone make you feel any different!

YOUR WORTH IS NOT MEASURED IN POUNDS OR INCHES

[pearshapeddiva-blog]

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

Beauty is not the makeup you wear, it’s not the way you walk, it’s not how you dress yourself, beauty is looking at your body and being truly happy without the false senses of the word that all equate to society’s version of perfection. You are your own version of perfection.

We all deserve to look and feel sexy! Me-ow! 😻

Repost from @thethirty!! Ladies and gentlemen, please don’t use a scale as a measure of worth or level of health. The scale is not capable of such a measurement. Health looks different on everyBODY so just do what’s best for you and what feels good!

THE F WORD

FAT. Probably not the word you were expecting. Why has the word fat become such a negative word in society? I recently read a statistic that stated:

-80% of 10-year-old girls are scared of becoming fat

-These girls are more afraid of being fat than losing BOTH of their parents.

I was shocked. I AM shocked. How have we let this happen as a society? Bodies come in all shapes and sizes and being FAT is the last thing a 10 year old should be worried about. 

I’ve decided that there is NO other way to change this than to start using the word fat as much as possible. To not be afraid to call myself fat. I am and that’s okay and the more I say it, the less the word affects me. I’ve always hated the word fat. I thought it was the end of the world if I was called fat, but now I could care less. I am fat.

A friend of mine works at a massage therapy salon. One of her customers literally asked for a different massage therapist because the one he had was fat. No other reason besides that. FAT-phobia is alive and well people.

I challenge you, just as I’ve been challenged, to normalize the word fat. Get rid of the negativity and fear that surrounds the word because its just that: A WORD.

Here I Go

I am starting this blog as a project for school, but also for myself and anyone else who can relate to the topics I will be discussing. Being fat. Sex. Gender. Stereotypes. Love. Depression. Anxiety. and Being fat. I am going to focus on reclaiming the word fat. It has such a negative connotation in society when it is really just a word describing size. I don’t want people to fear the word fat anymore. This is just an intro, I am going to discuss issues  in society in America, I’m going to discuss sadness, I’m going to discuss fear. Sometimes I will rant. Sometimes I will share things you might not like and that’s okay. But most importantly, I’m going to discuss love and happiness. I named this blog “Full, Fat, and Happy” because I live a full and meaningful life, even though I’m fat, and I am happy. More to come soon lovelies xx
