Hello anyone and everyone who reads my articles!

I usually like to keep my articles as a safe place, away from my complaining, but this week I just couldn't help but to open up the b*tch box for a few minutes.

I have heard so much lately, on my social media sites, and through random people I encounter on a daily basis that "fat" people cannot wear crop tops... OK WHAT?!

First of all, who is to determine what exactly "fat" is? I know that just about every girl on this planet, even the one's who weigh 110 pounds, call themselves fat. So what is fat, huh? Fat isn't a category that you can just push somebody into because they aren't deemed physically appealing by your ridiculous set of personal standards. There, I said it.

Second of all, last time that I checked, you do not have the right to tell a stranger or even somebody that you know what they can, or cannot, put on their body. You have absolutely no control, no say, no relevance in the situation. Why are you so unhappy with your own life that you feel the need to scour around looking for somebody vulnerable to attack? Why must you feel the obligation to tell somebody that their body isn't meant for a certain article of clothing? Goodness gracious.

On my third note, which also happens to be my favorite, did you ever take a second to realize that these "fat girls" who are wearing these crop tops actually purchased these crop tops in a store? The point here being that these tops that you feel aren't meant for this specific body type actually came in a size for her to purchase at a clothing store (gasp)! That must mean that, wait, these girls are allowed to wear crop tops?

If you don't want to wear a crop top, you don't have to, and that's the beauty of America. But just because you don't want someone else to wear one for some reason doesn't mean that they are going to listen to you. They shouldn't listen to you.


If you're a girl and you're feeling hesitant about wearing a crop top?

But really, you're a total babe and no one can take that away from you. Wear whatever makes you feel happy and confident. You go girl.

xoxo,

a fat girl who loves wearing crop tops

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
