Beauty?

What's beauty? What defines it?

Do you have to be impossibly skinny to be beautiful? 
skinny:*


Or are curves the very definition of beauty?
                                                          curvy!

I look at the world around me and I see girls that are a perfectly healthy weight starving themselves because they're not thin enough and are therefore no longer desirable. Does that mean those of us that are above the healthy weight line are positively disgusting?

My question is: Why should your waistline define your level of beauty?

Girls are squeezing into skinny jeans, depriving themselves of nutrition, looking into the mirror and hating the body they see there just because they don't fit society's idea of beauty.

I know what that's like.

I hate going clothes shopping. I really do.

Have you any idea what it's like to stare at yourself in the mirror and hate your body because you can't wear the clothes you used to?

Hate.
Hate.
Hate.
Hate.
Hate.

It's a strong word.

And I mean it with all of my being.

Look, I don't understand 'beauty'. But hey, skinny girls, how about leaving some for us?

This has been a rant from Danica. It probably didn't make sense. Oh well.
I'm going to go eat an apple or something.
Bye.
