Body Positivity vs Real Life
Manage episode 367853959 series 2907245
The body-positive movement, while well-intentioned, has left me feeling conflicted and shamed at times.
I wholeheartedly believe in the movement's mission to challenge society's beauty standards and promote acceptance of all bodies. Witnessing the empowerment and confidence that radiates from individuals embracing their curves and unique features is beautiful.
However, along the way, it seems that a new set of beauty standards has emerged, inadvertently creating pressure to fit into a different mold.
It's important to acknowledge that self-love and acceptance are not linear journeys. The mirror reflects our struggles and insecurities, and having moments of vulnerability is okay. We shouldn't be silenced or afraid to express our thoughts, even if they don't align with the mainstream narrative.
