On Fat

I'm sure alot of misconception and resistance has been brought out about fat girls in fashion (or fatties in general) - alot may see it as a encouragement to live an unhealthy lifestyle - completely missing the point which is to widen the very narrow and limited idea of what beautiful is. We're talking about at least 300 years or so "tradition", so I guess resistance to any deviation is bound to happen.


There are fatties who enjoy an active lifestyle just like the next "normal-sized" person (myself included, I happen to enjoy hiking and dancing, but I don't torture myself with the goal of weightloss, if it happens then ok, if not ,then I'm not going to cry about it).


Why can't we all just co-exist, right? And not measure each other up by size and instead, give more substance on how kindly we treat ourselves and one another. I myself have accepted that it's human nature to judge, so I've accepted I will be judged (and heck, I bring my judgemental self every now and then, so I'm flawed like everyone else). I've now dismissed to live by what society think I ought to be or how to look. What they think of me has nothing to do with me, that's their opinion not mine. That's the issue they have to live with and fortunately, it has nothing to do with me- that's their bone to pick you know . That's my rant for the day hehehe.


I would like say that I have been a fan of Fatty Fashion Bloggers and lately I enjoy checking the following:
