Rule of thumb for most things: If white people Love it (e.g. Hamilton) or if Cis people love it (e.g. Transparent) it’s most likely Bad and not worth ur time

I’m SO excited for the 2nd season of Transparent!
Body positivity doesn’t reject our preoccupation with the body, it just broadens the range of acceptable bodies. What I really want is body neutrality: for none of it to matter. For our bodies to move through the world unremarked upon. Because if a body can be the object of support or approval or acceptance, even from within, it then can necessarily be the object of the opposite: distaste, disapproval, rejection.

I hate when people comment on my body hair… like yes u fucking asshole I’m aware that I’m hairy bc of my hormonal disorder and no it’s not from “shaving too much” and on that note I’m never gonna shave to make u feel more comfortable about MY body! Fuck off
A good body image day is not the day you feel skinniest, it’s the day you can look at yourself and smile. The day you can look at yourself and feel alright.
REMINDER THAT IT IS OK TO HAVE:
THESE ARE NOT THINGS YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF. THESE ARE NATURAL THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD EMBRACE. THE HUMAN BODY IS BEAUTIFUL. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
I never see any posts that give a shoutout to the girls with dark, thick hair on their breasts, on their backs, their face, their arms, their butts, their stomachs, literally EVERYWHERE that isn’t a leg or an armpit, so here’s your post.
Please, please, PLEASE. Know that you are beautiful too.
The hairs that you hate on every part of your body are just as beautiful as the hair on your head.
You deserve to love yourself and everything on you, no matter what fashion and beauty magazines say or show.
For anyone who’s struggling with an eating disorder like myself and is feeling the pressure to make “dieting” and losing weight your New Years resolution, might I suggest improving your exercise, health, and body positivity your New Years resolution instead? Its important to keep the goals kind of vague because by focusing on exercising WITHOUT a weight goal and focusing on your general health (for me, focusing on my general health means forcing myself to eat a healthy 3 meals a day and a couple snacks in between meals no matter what) it will take the pressure off to resort to unhealthy and disordered eating and lower the chances of binging and therefore lower the chances of feeling extreme guilt and self-hate because of the binging/purging/etc. If you happen to lose weight by focusing on your health and exercise and loving yourself that’s cool, but if you don’t lose weight remember that it’s not the primary goal. Love yourself no matter what your weight is. ❤️
