'Beauty At Any Size'

So for a while now I have been following a young woman on Youtube, who uploads various different videos such as comedy, makeup tutorials, vlogs and also inspirational videos too. One video that stood out in particular was one where she filmed herself in just her underwear showing up cards that she had written on. In my opinion I felt she was a little over weight, although others would say her curves are beautiful. Don't get me wrong she is beautiful, like everyone. But like I said before, it's my opinion. However, putting aside what she looks like the main aspect I loved about the video is what she was trying to get across. Many woman who are curvier, will love their curves no matter what, whereas others hate the way they look and I feel can be envious towards girls who are skinnier. I think we all do it. Which I feel then portrays hatred towards skinnier girls, and thinking curvier is the way forward. However, this woman in the video said that "real woman have curves" but then said after on another piece of card, "real woman are skinny too" So the fact that she was saying everyone is beautiful and that curves isn't the only body shape that is beautiful. I just loved the fact that she didn't care about her body even though she had wobbly bits and what not, I didn't mind, it didn't repulse me. Others may think different. I think she may of felt like she needed to upload this video as because she is a bigger woman, she will obviousy always stand by the quote "big is beautiful" and I think she got a lot of stick too for being bigger and for showing off her body because some would say she was "too fat" to wear the type of skimpy clothes she wears. So I do take my hat off her for being so brave and loving the skin she's in.

Below is the video.
