Plus Size Women Empowering Others

We're in the 21st century; we are way past stereotypical norms in terms of color or race or sex or body size and shape

Plus Size Women Empowering Others

You'd think it would be easier for bigger women to step out and be confident about who they are, now that even gender fluidity is starting to be accepted.

Well, the cold truth is; yes, gender fluidity or plus sizes and zero sizes are all very well being accepted, but not so much in real life as they are in theory or on the social media. People are very vocal on the social media about being open minded and about accepting people for what they are. But when it comes to real life, and when it comes to putting the shared social media views in to practice and actually accepting people without any inhibitions, there seems to be something missing.

Perhaps, a genuine willingness to do so?

The fear of getting shunned as "one of them" by the society?

The fear of offending others if they don't always follow common views?

Either way, it is always the so perceived "abnormal" people who are on the receiving end of things that suffer; that is, the plus size women or the darker women or the gender fluid etc.

Clearly, but unfortunately, it is a fight for plus size women to be considered normal. It is even more so for teenagers who are always too vulnerable to being judged.
They all need frontiers who are not afraid of the society and what the society makes the rest of the world believe. They need someone who knows what it's like to be on the other end and have a genuine willingness to make a change. They need influencers!

Thankfully we do have many fearless curvy and dusky women out there who are set out to become leaders of the curvy campaign. Even though the social media seems to have done more harm than good for plus size women, efficient influencers know how exactly how to make use of the platform to spread positivity and equality. Some of them have their own place on the internet to share their views while some others solely use the social media for the purpose.

Here are a few of the biggest influencers among plus size women who are strongly and dedicatedly empowering others to be curvy, confident and comfortable in their own skin.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
