Ok ok I get it you want to stare but really now? Stare EVERYTIME you see me? Even the LECTURERS were staring! Dirty Old Men....
On the plus side I know that if I ever want or need an extenstion for an assignment or something I just have to make sure I wear shorts when I ask...
But seriously...it's not like I'm in shape or something...stop making comments about my so-called "sexy" legs and get an eye test...really..like, now....Have you never seen a girl in your life before? Or shorts? Or actual legs? I mean come on, there are girls on campus wearing minnier-than-micro dresses, shorts, hot shorts or watever...basically like bikini bottoms, and yet you stare at me. and then your girlfriend who's actually WITH you must give evil-eye...*sigh*
I blame society. Society and Media. If it wasn't for you people, there wouldn't be this "perfect body" image that you impose on the world. Everyone is their own size and you should respect that, not bombard people with images of skinny girls who are supposedly the best looking. I realised that today while everyone was staring. skinny girl will wear nothing thats ok they've got close-to-nothing to show anyway...but when a plus-size shows up in close to nothing it's thought to be ugly or wierd. say it with me now, WTF??
But in any case the damage is done...because of the media and celebrities, skinny is the way apparently. These Durban girls will practically dress up in childrens clothes to actually fit them..while the plus size ones will try to squeeze in the smallest they find. I don't get it, I really don't.
But why? Because of media...The skinny girls try to dress up and show off that they fit in with the image of society while the plus girls go on diet after diet, smoke pack after pack and wear the tightest possible to suck everything in...if that doesn't show you how fcuked up society is, there's something wrong with you...
I'm not skinny. I'm not plus. I like to think I'm in the middle. you can judge for yourself but my point is this. If you're comfortable in what you wear ok. But always remeber that whatever size you are it doesn't matter. Your body is YOUR body. No one else has to deal with it, clothe it, feed it, etc. so don't bother to listen to anyone about it. Media or otherwise.
My motherr always tells me I need to diet (AS IF!) but my way of thinking is simple and clear. It's my body. I'm living with it, dealing with it and happy with it. as long as those three things remain true it's none of your business what size or shape it is. It's my own thing...
