If Taylor Swift Is Considered ‘Fat,’ WELP, That’s The End Of Body Positivity

Gaining weight does not equal being fat.

If Taylor Swift Is Considered ‘Fat,’ WELP, That’s The End Of Body Positivity

After her 1989 World Tour concluded, Taylor Swift went into a brief hiatus from pretty much everything. No new music, no new candids, no nothing. We pretty much very rarely saw Taylor for the time she was gone.

At the beginning of May, Taylor started her reputation Stadium Tour. This has been the most we've seen her in SUCH a long time.

If you compare pictures of Taylor from 2015 compared to now in 2018, you'll see that Taylor has gained weight and before you freak out, no, I'm not saying that's a bad thing.

Taylor has always been thin, even when you look at past pictures dating back to when she was first discovered. Taylor's new athletic build makes her look so strong and healthy but that doesn't make her fat.

Apparently, she had told someone at a reputation secret session that she had gained 25 pounds and the paparazzi would call her pregnant and that, to me, is heartbreaking.

But here's the thing, we don't actually know anything about Taylor's health. The only thing we know is what we see and her body has nothing to do with her ability to sing. She became famous for being a good singer/songwriter, not because of her body.

We also shouldn't care about a celebrity's weight loss/gain. Truthfully, it isn't news-worthy. Celebrities are people too and just like us, they'll have weight fluctuations, too.

Gaining weight does not mean you're fat and that goes for everyone no matter if you're Taylor Swift or just a normal person.

So, yeah, she gained weight. Anyone can tell that by looking at her photos, but if she's happy, then so what? It's none of our business. Let's stop commenting and speculating on her weight. It does not affect us in any way, shape, or form.

If Taylor is happy with her body, then that's all that matters in the end.

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.

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.
