I'm starting a movement!

I'm writing this before I start to film a video about it, so that if some of you don't have time to watch the youtubes you can still get involved. A while back I made a post about weight right here and that really explains where this is coming from but as time passes it does continue to annoy me so I want to make a movement.

If you've read that post about weight you will know that something that annoys me is that people decide that to say something positive about their body, they must find something negative about someone else's. For example one I read quite often is "Who would want to be a stick? Men love curves." Or "I like my women with a little meat on their bones." I know that there are also things said from thin people like "Oh she's too big, I like to be fit and healthy." Or "I like my women skinny and healthy." But I more often see pages and websites dedicated to have body acceptance and love, but they quite often help increase hatred against bodies that are not curvy, which is going backwards. NOW there are a couple of things wrong with this.

#1 I quite often read comments of men saying "I like my women" and this is disrespectful. I understand that everyone has a preference but you don't need to parade your preference, yet you have that free right so I guess you can go ahead, even though I hate it. #2 On the many body acceptance pages there seems to be a bias towards heavy/curvy women. Not always by the page but by the followers. #3 Everyone seems to think they are a certified nutritionist who can tell everyone else, curvy or thin, that they aren't healthy. UNLESS YOU ARE SOMEONE'S DOCTOR YOU NEED TO STOP. YOU SHOULDN'T GO AROUND SAYING THINGS ABOUT PEOPLE'S HEALTH. It's rude. And #4 Why do we feel this need to defend ourselves by bringing others down? Why do you have to say "I love being curvy, plus who would want to be a twig?" Or "I love being thin, plus who would want to be obese?" Why can't you just stop at "I love being curvy." and "I love being thin." Or how about "I love my body because it's mine. And I'm beautiful." (Or handsome).

So this is where my movement is going to come in, tweet me @IncoercibleLife and #beautifulbodybecause, write on my Facebook Page use the #beautifulbodybecause, and follow the Tumblr and tag us there and use the # and just say "I love my body because" and then give your reason. Don't continue with "I love my body because it's curvy and I would never want to be a stick." Or "I love my body because it's thin and I like to be healthy." And guys you should get involved too because you guys can be really mean about body image.

I'm going to post a video for this too, so stay tuned. And remember, you are beautiful because you're you.
