New Mantra: Real Women Have Bodies.
Those bodies are of different shapes and sizes and colours. Some of them you will find more attractive than others. That's fine. I want to see advertising that reflects me, my friends, that beauty and attractiveness are subjective, and all of those other things. Real women have bodies. Hating on women who either easily fit into advertising's definition of attractiveness or have to harm themselves to do so helps no one. Yes, some of the women in my life have eating disorders, and a lot of that is caused by very high pressure to be thin... and yet, they are still real women.
Real women have bodies. Big ones, small ones, curvy ones, flat ones, bodies. There is so much hate every day thrown at women's bodies that I just can't sit back and listen when someone spouts out that real women have curves.
