17 Body Truths No Woman Should Be Ashamed of ...

I am so sick of body shaming. I'm sick of fat shaming, skinny shaming, ass shaming, and boob shaming. I'm sick of being people shamed for the color or texture of their skin, for their makeup or their lack of makeup, for their clothing or lack of clothing, for their leg hair and arm hair and pit hair. I'm just sick of it. Don't feel bad about your body – no matter what. These are body truths no woman – no one – should ever be ashamed about. And I am calling out that bullshit.

1. Making Body Decisions That Work for You

Making Body Decisions That Work for You You have full body autonomy. Your body is yours. You may choose to stop shaving your legs. You may wear crop tops that show off your stretch marks. GOOD. Keep doing it.

2. Your Weight

Your Weight Your weight is a number. It's the least interesting thing about you. People have opinions and they will tell you that they are allowed to voice their opinions as they pertain to your body. Sorry for the language, but I say fuck that.

You Should Never Worry if Something Jiggles Never, not once. You are not jelly, jam, or Jello. Your jiggles do not matter. They're nothing to be ashamed about.

4. Or if Your Thighs Don't Have a Gap

hair, mouth, hairstyle, organ, black hair, Why is a thigh gap suddenly seen as so attainable, anyway? I could drop 50 pounds tomorrow and I'd still never have a thigh gap. And that's okay.

… or if They do It's cool to have a thigh gap, too. Don't shame people who do. Don't assume things about them just because you're up in your emotions. If you feel the need to shame someone else about something, maybe check your own insecurities, first. Think about what's making you lash out.

6. Your Hair is Beautiful Regardless of the Length

Your Hair is Beautiful Regardless of the Length I hate that this even has to be pointed out. For the record, your hair is also beautiful regardless of texture or color. It's beautiful if it's kinky, coily, curly, or stick straight. It's beautiful even if it's barely there.

7. The Size of Your Nose

The Size of Your Nose I recently actually saw someone try to insult a girl because of her nose. She turned him down for a date and he called her fat, said she had a big nose, and he didn't want to date a camel anyway. A CAMEL. Large, small, or in between, your nose is perfect. Also, screw that guy.

Never Compare Your Real Body to a Virtual Body Or a Photoshopped body. Or a body in the movies. Or a body in magazines. Seriously.

Well said! We women are the harshest on other women. We need to lift eachother up, not put eachother down.

Mmmrrr

What an inspiring post, and so very true. You said some words that I wish would be promoted all of the time. 🙌 Nothing but love to all women.

Thank you for continuing to put this positive body image message out there for all! I'm still getting over how my ex hub attempted to ridicule and shame my body, especially after sex, and while pregnant with both of our children. I know I am beautiful!

People need to learn that body shaming isn't u it's d person trying to shame u. Feel bad for d sad miserable soul... Happy people don't put others down...

The rational part of me knows that every woman can and should make her own choices about her body. The right to choose is a beautiful thing. But every time I get shamed for my choices, like not wearing makeup, it makes me hate every woman I see wearing it

Well said!

Thank you! Exactly what I think!

Soooo meee
