It's acceptable to be larger than a size 0

Here's my extremely thorough opinion on what people call chubby, and overweight, and how society portrays it.

Hi, I'm Sam. And I have a serious opinion on the topic of weight.. I'm going to start off by showing this picture;



Two things.
1. This picture does not make sense to me because the girl in the picture is already skinny as a twig, therefore making this "wish" already true.
2. Why does everyone strive to be so skinny?

I mean, yes I understand... I'm not particularly happy with my body type. But do you want to know why? It's because society has told us, "You need to be skinny to be pretty". Don't believe me? Go to Google and type in "Teenage Model Body Shots" and click images. Every single model is skinny to the point of ribs showing, or just plain out a twig. I think that's wrong. It is perfectly fine to be a size above 0. Society is bitchy, and if you let that bitch tell you what to do, how to dress, and how to feel, you'll never get anywhere in life. I'm 124 lbs as of yesterday. I wear medium sized shirts, and I range from a size 1-5.. and you know what? I am average. Not skinny, not fat.. I'm starting to become okay with it. I don't like the term fat anyways. It's a stupid term.



This picture displays my opinion right on the spot. Just because you're 180lbs or 85lbs, doesn't mean you're not beautiful. Your body weight doesn't determine the beauty of you, your personality does. I know that sounds really cheesy, but when it comes to a guy, if they have an amazing personality but they're chubby, odds are I won't give a crap. If a guy has a smoking body, but has the personality of a douche... I'm definitely not going to like him. Weight does not matter. I am going to say it until people realize. It doesn't matter. And if a guy/girl cares about your weight over who you are, then they are not even worth giving them the time of day.. The only time you should ever be worried about weight is when its affecting your health negatively. If you're obese and in risk of diabetes or something, then yes, losing weight would be a good idea. But these girls who starve themselves, binge eat, have bulimia, and anorexia.. Darling, it's not healthy. Just because you want to look like



Doesn't mean you need to stoop to levels of self infliction, and by self infliction I mean eating disorders. It's perfectly fine to have a cheese burger every now and then. It's fine to be over a size 0. It's okay to weigh more than 100lbs. It's fine if you don't fit into an XS or S shirt at a clothing store. It's okay to drink whole milk instead of Low fat.. Most importantly though, what's not okay? It's NOT okay to change yourself for anybody. Be yourself, and love yourself because were all human beings. We all bleed the same blood, and we all breathe the same air. We all have feelings, and thoughts, and ideas, and we all have brains, and if we put our brains together, maybe one day we'll see that.. Maybe one day we'll finally realize that all these things society tells us is right, is actually wrong.
