Why the doublestandard??

2024/12/11 Edited to

... Read moreThe conversation around body image and societal standards is important, especially regarding mom bods versus dad bods. While dad bods are often celebrated as symbols of comfort and masculinity, mom bods frequently face scrutiny despite the challenges and changes that come with motherhood. Isn't it surprising that a woman’s body, which nurtures and brings life into the world, is criticized when it changes? Adding to the discourse, hashtag movements like #womensupportingwomen and #momsoflemon8 provide platforms for mothers to share their stories, encourage acceptance, and foster a community of support. By breaking down these double standards, we empower each other to embrace our natural forms and redefine beauty norms that have been unfairly set. In a society striving for equality, it’s essential to challenge these preconceptions and promote a more inclusive view of beauty that honors all bodies.

Why the double standard? 🤔
Think about it guys, plus-sized female models’re everywhere. Walk into a clothing store, scroll through ads, flip a catalog, you’ll spot them, no problem. But plus-sized guys in that same space is ghost town. I’ve racked my brain trying to figure out why, and I still can’t wrap my head around it.

clarity is the standard ✨
If it’s truly yours, it will come with clarity — not chaos, not confusion. Chaos feels intense. Confusion feels addictive. But neither feels secure. What’s aligned doesn’t require decoding mixed signals. It doesn’t leave you questioning your worth. It doesn’t make you anxious to keep it.
