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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
