God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear though the
earth gives way,
though the mountains be moved into
the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble at its swelling.There is a river whose streams make
glad…

Body shaming at it’s best (and worst).
Don’t buy into this crap. Think critically about the messages you’re being exposed to and choose ones that SERVE you. Messages like the ones above (i.e that there’s a right way to have a body) are harmful, saddening, and one of the mediums through women learn and continue to hate their bodies. If you weren’t insecure before, seeing YOUR body type described as the ‘worst’ is a bullshit mindfuck you don’t need.
Magazines are rampant with body shaming and headlines like these are one of the biggest perpetrators in the war on women. It makes it normal to criticize and hate ourselves. It turns normal bodies, OUR bodies, into objects to be mocked, perfected, compared and judged by anyone.
You are beautiful as you are. It’s true. And no body is perfect. But they wouldn’t sell many magazines if we felt secure in our skin, would they? The reality is that 90% of women have cellulite: it’s not something to freak over in REAL life. But headlines like this would make it seem like it’s a failing to have those lady lumps; that it’s the ‘worst’.
Bullshit.
Think critically and don’t buy into the best/worst hype. It’s designed to prey on and amplify your insecurity. It serves no one but the people making money off it. Stop, breathe and move on.
