There are seven billion people on this planet. Seven billion sounds like such a large number
and yet, each one of those seven billion are unique to themselves. There is no one else exactly like they are in
the world.
Everything from our physical appearance, the way that we dress,
our personalities; our views; our political leanings and our likes and dislikes
all come together to shape someone who is one of a kind.
In turn, the ways in which we choose our prospective partners
works in a similar way. We are complex
creatures and we all want different things, be it purely on a physical or a
deeper level.
Beauty however is only skin deep.
You may meet someone who ticks every box when it comes to the physical
aspects that you find appealing, but when you learn their personality, their
character traits; this can change your original opinion completely.
I could meet, for example, the twin of my celebrity crush George Clooney but if he was a member of the English Defence League, I would be off running in a different direction. Because someone like that is not my type, regardless of how they look.
Physically, we are all attracted to different things. Tall, short, average height, blonde,
brunette, red head, long legs, large breasts, small breasts, broad shoulders,
lean, a great smile, tattoos, piercings, fat, thin; the list could go on
forever.
Given that we all like different physical traits, different personalities and opinions; can you imagine how ridiculous it would be if we did try to impose
our preference choices on others? Not only would it not work, but what you would essentially be saying is that everyone apart from your own preferred type did not deserve love.
Sounds absurd doesn't it. Yet it happens every day. Because girls grow up being told that in order to "get a boyfriend", in order to "be attractive", in order to be loved, they have to be thin. If you are not thin, you are the booby prize. You are the one night stand they will never admit to. You are a fetish. Men who like you are labelled chubby chasers.
Can you imagine it happening to any other physical characteristic? "Were you drunk last night? You pulled a girl with brown hair". Sounds ridiculous doesn't.
Well enough is bloody well enough. I've had it. People and their narrow opinions can quite frankly stick themselves and their bigoted asses where the sun does not shine. I refuse to be told that I am not "good enough" to be dated, that I do not deserve to be loved because I am fat.
The shape of my body may not appeal to some but it does to others and guess what? That works the same way for everyone. BECAUSE WE ALL LIKE DIFFERENT THINGS!!!!
Fat, happy, deserves love and is damn well going to find it.
Screw you Daily Mail Readers.
