Jennifer Aniston has been a role model and a fashion icon for the past two decades and somehow we still can’t get enough of her. During the "Friends" era, women everywhere would walk into hair salons with a vision and one request: “I want the Rachel.” That haircut was perhaps closely followed by the want for the Monica, but we all know which hairstyle reigned.

Now, we see Aniston as the woman who has aged so beautifully that perhaps she hasn’t aged at all. People flock to the supermarket to buy Aveeno face creams with the hopes that because she is the face of their advertisements, they will somehow look as flawless as she does.

We have never needed another reason to love our sweet Jennifer, but she just iced the cake that we’ve made in her honor after a brilliantly written Huffington Post article.

I stumbled upon her words of wisdom after reading my DailySkimm email from July 13th. Being one of the less dedicated, but still interested, fans of Aniston, I was pleasantly surprised to be directed to an article written by the actress herself.

To summarize it quickly for you, Jennifer Aniston basically throws up her middle fingers to the paparazzi and the tabloids regarding the constant criticizing microscope she and other women seem to always be under. This applies in terms of both their weight and appearance, as well as their status as a wife, mother, or otherwise.

Cleverly titled "For the Record," I can imagine her repeating this phrase throughout her entire message. She has many important points to make, but perhaps the biggest take home for me was one of her highlighted quotes: "We are complete with or without a mate, with or without a child. We get to decide for ourselves what is beautiful when it comes to our bodies."

You tell 'em, J. Aniston! In a world where we keep up with the Kardashians for fun, celebrity role models who express these kinds of messages are few and far between. In a country where most of our news is regarding the horrors and sad events occurring, it is refreshing to hear some new perspective.

Women are not defined by their relationships, yet we live in a society where your marital status unfortunately means something more than who women will love 'til death do them part. As Aniston points out, as well, the same goes for whether or not a woman is a mother.

Not every woman plans to take on the motherhood role, and that doesn't make them any less of a woman than their maternal counterparts. This type of representation is practically nonexistent in the media, without portraying these females in a negative manner.

Aniston has been known through the years for combating the insane pressure placed upon the shoulders of women. In 2014, she was the cover model for Allure magazine and was quoted for her thoughts on feminism, which two years later, still match up to her ideals. Much like she is now, she was not shy in expressing her beliefs of unfair expectations of women, both in the acting world and in the motherhood world.

My hopes from her continually empowering words are that we will see a shift in the female expression within the media. Although celebrities are held to somewhat of a different standard than the average female, I believe that in our modernized society, they are the first step in achieving a collective change of mindset, further allowing women to take back their own bodies.
