I know, breaking the social standards, yet again. I complied to what was expected of me for a long time, but this month, I decided to say "No." to the social standards imposed on women. So, I stopped shaving my legs. It may not seem like a big deal to some, but to some, it's a huge deal. It's not seen as attractive or desirable.

But then again, since when did we start living our lives to please and attract a partner? I've actively started to live my life to please no one other than myself. I stopped dressing to impress others, I've stopped shaving my legs, I stopped complying to the social standard of beauty. I have found such a true freedom once I stopped caring. It's so much easier to make yourself, you can give yourself whatever you want easier than what you can give to others.

There's so much freedom in not caring. I encourage anyone to make a choice that will make you happy, even if it's not the popular choice. Remember that you don't need to look a certain way, you can be you. Don't conform to anything you don't want to. It's okay if you do if that's what you want, but never EVER feel obligated to do anything. I am obsessed with becoming a woman that's comfortable in her own skin and encouraging other women and men to be the same.

This rebellion, this revolution in my soul has started a change. Men and women alike have messaged me and thanked me for being an advocate for self-love and encouraging them to be unashamedly them. If I can be blatantly honest, it's been one of the best things I can say I've done in my life. Encouraging others to accept who they are and stop fighting is just amazing.

Your existence and worth will never rest on how attractive or desirable someone finds you. If tomorrow, every single person woke up and said they loved themselves, simply how they are, how many industries would go out of business? There's an unrivaled power in loving yourself, I think that if a revolution can start in each of us, it'll spread like a wildfire.
