Here's another link to check out!
Feminist.com has a lot to check out...This particular article that I read was quite interesting. Usually if you are reading an article about your body it has something to do with diets or some way to lose weight. This one was different. It has seven different ways to love your body without dieting. The first one explains about women that put up pictures of women that inspire them somewhere in their house or room just so they would see them every day.
Then it talks about looking at yourself in a mirror and let the course of your disappointments go through then really look at those flaws and think where you got them from and how it helped your relatives in the past through life.
Another one talks about how friends and family can criticize you and that’s can be one of the most stressful things you encounter. Even if you are afraid you still have the right to stand up to them so you can live a life without so much stress from people that are so close to you.
I liked the last one especially because they talk about being "fat" now as something proudly said by women, it’s an adjective. My favorite part is “And fat, Ansfield argues, is a lot less judgmental than overweight.”Over what weight?" she asks. "Is there some perfect weight I'm supposed to be at? Our bodies are all different because of our genetic makeup.” it’s so true. Who decided that there was a weight that we all must be at or that’s supposed to be the ideal weight?
Overall I think this was an awesome article check it out if you have time.
