Women’s Body Image
I just wanted to write down some of my thoughts about the female’s body image.
I want people to know that we have different bodies. Society standards are telling us all the time, that we have to fix something. That our body is not attractive enough, that we can only be happy and confident if we reach some unrealistic society standards about how our body should look like.
You “have to be” fit, skinny, with big boobs and sporty ass, white teeth and big lips….
What I want to say is that no matter what body we are born in, society will always tell us that there’s something wrong with it, no matter how close to idealistic standards we are.
I am telling this because I don’t want to be defined by a body, I don’t want anybody to be defined by a body. Body is part of me, but it is not me. It is not who I am.
I don’t want our bodies to be some »project« we work on to reach a certain body we want.
I want us to just accept our bodies and our positive features and to think about everything beautiful our bodies give to us, not just a certain »look«.
Our bodies make us breathe, move, dance etc
Our bodies are part of who we are, but they don’t define us.
We are so much more than just our looks. We are our wishes, values, desires, goals, words we speak, actions we make.
Bodies are places that we live in, but our personality, our soul, or mind, wishes, values, and actions are the ones that are truly important.

Hope you remind yourself of it as many times as possible…

You know what they say, nobody is you and that is your power.
