“I just think that people are so weird about nudity and the human body. Sex is not bad, naked bodies are not bad and naked bodies don’t always have to be connected to sex.”

However, fat is not a feeling. When you say “I feel fat”, you are using it as a catch-all for any and all negative feelings you have about your body. Can you not see how that would be offensive to an actual fat person?

I recognise that you may not be doing this intentionally. It’s possible to hate your own body while accepting the bodies of others. That said, you’re not off the hook. Words mean things. When you say “I feel fat”, you are perpetuating the idea that fat = bad.

In short, why does your insecurity come at the cost of our dignity?

Yes we do.

Way more than you realize. 

Yep.

I agree. Sometimes we need just a little help.

Reblogging for two reasons. 1. I agree with the picture. 2. The face to the left, am I the only one seeing a very sad and serious version of The Doctor? 

Yes we do

“People always ask me, ‘You have so much confidence. Where did that come from?’ It came from me. One day I decided that I was beautiful, and so I carried out my life as if I was a beautiful girl … It doesn’t have anything to do with how the world perceives you. What matters is what you see. Your body is your temple, it’s your home, and you must decorate it.” —Gabourey Sidibe

anadhelp:

95% of all dieters will regain their lost weight within 5 years. 35% of “normal dieters” progress to pathological dieting. Of those, 20-25% progress to partial or full-syndrome eating disorders.
Dieting places emphasis on quick weight loss, instead of emphasizing life-long health, wellness, and happiness. If any of the diet industry’s products worked, they wouldn’t be making billions of dollars a year from telling you you’re not good enough.
Re-learn how to eat intuitively and stop classifying foods as “good” or “bad.” You need food to survive! Stop dieting and start enjoying food again, rather than feeling guilty about it.

Oh my god. His stretchmarks are freakin’ rad!

I’m not sure you understand how important this is to me.  I have literally never seen a man with stretchmarks before, so I’ve always been really self-conscious of mine.  

so many men have stretchmarks, i know a few guys with deep marks like this persons. very common, dont feel insecure because they are no big deal at all. But, i am glad you got to see this photo because i know how comforting it is to find a photo of something you feel weird about that doesnt seem the norm. :)

<3<3<3this person is so cute i can’t contain myself<3<3<3
