Plus Size Women Empowering Others

You'd think it would be easier for bigger women to step out and be confident about who they are, now that even gender fluidity is starting to be accepted.

Well, the cold truth is; yes, gender fluidity or plus sizes and zero sizes are all very well being accepted, but not so much in real life as they are in theory or on the social media. People are very vocal on the social media about being open minded and about accepting people for what they are. But when it comes to real life, and when it comes to putting the shared social media views in to practice and actually accepting people without any inhibitions, there seems to be something missing.

Perhaps, a genuine willingness to do so?

The fear of getting shunned as "one of them" by the society?

The fear of offending others if they don't always follow common views?

Either way, it is always the so perceived "abnormal" people who are on the receiving end of things that suffer; that is, the plus size women or the darker women or the gender fluid etc.

Clearly, but unfortunately, it is a fight for plus size women to be considered normal. It is even more so for teenagers who are always too vulnerable to being judged.
They all need frontiers who are not afraid of the society and what the society makes the rest of the world believe. They need someone who knows what it's like to be on the other end and have a genuine willingness to make a change. They need influencers!

Thankfully we do have many fearless curvy and dusky women out there who are set out to become leaders of the curvy campaign. Even though the social media seems to have done more harm than good for plus size women, efficient influencers know how exactly how to make use of the platform to spread positivity and equality. Some of them have their own place on the internet to share their views while some others solely use the social media for the purpose.

Here are a few of the biggest influencers among plus size women who are strongly and dedicatedly empowering others to be curvy, confident and comfortable in their own skin.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
