Shout Out to the Curvy Girls

by asmith7092

FAT, TUBBY, BIG, CHUBBY, SLOPPY, GROSS, SMELLY

All depictions of a full woman portrayed upon the television of society

Blinded by our true beauty, so let me regulate for a moment

What u call FAT I call CURVACEOUS 

More to love in all the right places

Big bodies hold big personalities

So God created me accordingly

Regardless of what society has in store for me

Never will I ever push that plate away

Never will I ever be insecure

Never will I ever leave a buffet knowing that my stomach is only half full

My size does not define me

I'll never be ashamed

The media tells me to hate myself 

I love me anyway

This is for all the curvy girls

Stride with your heada held high

Never let anyone tell you you're not beautiful

And have that extra slice of pie

<p>RIGHT ON CURVY IS BEAUTIFUL</p>

I'm not putting down people with slim figures I'm just giving girls with larger figures a reason to love themselves not hate others.

<p>I agree though do not assume she is putting down slender people. Body shaming affects all of us. Not just bigger people</p>

<p>The popularity of messages like this has ironically created a trend against people with a slim figure.</p>

<p>Nice! All too much we focus on someone's size or how they look, their skin etc. We need to focus and praise on the women whose hearts are as sweet as cakes and pies instead of how they look or what size dress they wear.</p>
