dankiibombshell: misterzen: maelax: dankiibombshell: A small background on these photos. They were taken months ago and never meant to be shared. My boyfriend and I were just getting ready for a shower, talking and I pulled out my phone for a picture(not like this). Neither of us had taken pictures like this before but we just went with it and they became our favorite. These were NEVER meant to be shared, especially since my boyfriend doesn’t like to be seen without clothes but one day he said “I’m so happy and proud to be with you I wouldn’t even care if you posted those bathroom pictures all over everything”, I thought “No way! Those are too intimate”. A few weeks later a light went off in my head. I wanted to show love in its rawest form and life at its best. I wanted to squash any doubts about him loving my body and leave a clear message to EVERYONE that no you don’t need to eat a damn cheeseburger if you’re “too skinny” and no you don’t have to put down that cheeseburger if you’re “too fat” because as long as you’re YOU someone will come along and fall in love with your true self. Body, mind and all. Basically, don’t wait for who you think you should be to come along to live your life. I love this picture and what it represents with all my heart. There’s still this lingering message of, “I got a hot boyfriend even though I’m morbidly obese.” that reeks of superficial perpetuation of shaming, considering she’s so goddamn proud she got a “hot” boyfriend without having to do the things girls think they have to do. The concept of the “hot boyfriend” is incredibly damaging to underweight, overweight or otherwise non-“hot” men, and her whole message of “Accept yourself.” goes crashing to the ground because of it. How is a fat chick being happy she got a “hot” boyfriend any different than a fat guy being happy he got a “hot” girlfriend? Keep in mind, their being happy they got these “hot” significant others leads to the understanding that they do not want a fat, ugly, or otherwise non-“hot” significant other. I get the message she’s trying to put forth, but she did a terrible job at it. It would have been better with a normal looking dude, or even a fat dude, and her musing about how she did it, how she got a “gorgeous amazing boyfriend” as she has previously called this fella. I never called him gorgeous or amazing I said I was told I’d get a gorgeous boyfriend. And my boyfriend is gorgeous, he is amazing, don’t take away my right to compliment him just like every other girl does to her bf. I’m sorry he’s not ugly enough for you. I should break up with him because you don’t think the message was as good because he’s attractive. Even if I was sitting here saying “LOOK I’M FAT AS FUCK AND MY BOYFRIEND LOOKS LIKE A MODEL!” I could, because idiots like you think women like me should only be with average or fat guys. The man I fell in love with happens to be hot as fuck, get over it already dude. -- source link
