For many years people have been wondering what beauty is, but up to the present day there is no definite answer nor a shared vision. Despite in the changes in beauty standard in time and variety across culture, it seems that in almost today’s society beauty is mainly associated with thinness, nonetheless the growth of fashion plus size clothes industry is very promising to bring a reversed trend for ideal beauty.
Questions are raised. Do you idolise them? Do you feel there is a struggle to look perfect when surrounded by slim women? Do you think they make women fatter? If you idolise a plus size model for their curves will you lose respect and loyalty towards them if they lost weight?
The average woman in the world is 12 and above which is size of a plus size model. We should be free to be the size we are naturally, not to be forced gain or lose weight. We should be focusing on being healthy and active, not on size or weight, or if we have curves or not . everything in this world everyone has a definition of what is beautiful and attractive.
Women should be free with their own skin not that beauty is only for the skinny girls or tall girls or girls with long hair or whatever is trending at the moment we should be defined by the attitude and the overall look not size or weight.
