The Fat Positive Lounge

Beloved · 07-21-2012, 04:43 AM

I am a lurker in this thread. I'm not considered fat, but like many women I just have body image issues. And this thread for me is more than just embracing the fact that you are fat and that there is nothing wrong with it. To me it inspires me to accept and embrace my own body, with it's many "flaws" whatever they may be. So thank you to all of you confident BBW.

Miss Tia, best of luck to you and your store. Sounds like you are enjoying yourself and the community is happy to have you.

Thanks, Beloved! You and anyone, whether thin or fat or whatever size, are very welcome here to lurk or post! I just wanted to carve out a little space where someone could go to get some body positive energy and support

One of my favorite artists is Jan Saudek. I love his unapologetic embrace of women's "flaws." Not sure if this image will work but:

In the same way that a scar can be seen as sexy, so too can a roll of fat or a body that has unusual proportions.

Welcome to the thread Beloved,

I truly don't think that this is just for celebrating people of size, but celebrating people as a whole. Far too often our society places beauty in the context of size, making alot of us think that being skinny/slim etc is the key to being beautiful ~ of course the rest of us know better, but when we are inundated with images of thin women and people believe that those pics are the end all be all of beauty it gets frustrating. Its about time that society begin to embrace all of its imperfections ~ if God wanted us all to be skinny then he'd have made us that way, but he didn't so I believe that we are all who we are for a very good reason ........... lets all remember to embrace ourselves, love ourselves however we look and know that we are worth being valued as human beings
