This morning on my way to work, I was listening to Two Girls & a Guy and they were talking about this viewer who had lost 50 pounds (which is awesome) and her boyfriend is not attracted to her anymore. Well, this obviously is when the listeners in Charleston get a chance to speak their minds, somethings I agreed with and clearly there were somethings I did NOT agree on, and had to speak my mind.....
Kelly G & Mike stated that when they were heavier they got more hook-ups and more attention, to which the comment was made that the opposite sex sees "heavier" people as easier to get with, because they do not have to work as hard because "heavier" people have lower self esteem. This is the exact moment I almost ran into the car infront of me! I was/am flabergasted that people actually sterotype curvy girls as having low self esteem, and an easy target. Anyone and EVERYone I meet will be able to tell them differently!
Being beautiful and confident has NOTHING to do with the size of your jeans, how big your boobs are, how long your hair is, or anything superficial like that. Beauty comes from within. All women are beautiful, but they have to see it and believe it for themselves before anyone else is going to see it too. When you are confident in your self you beauty will light up the room. Confidence is BEAUTIFUL, everything else is icing on the cake! All my friends are smaller than me, and all so very beautiful on there on own, but when you see us together you would not be able to tell me I am less beautiful because I am not as skinny! Honey, if anything, I would say I get more attention because I have the confidence about me, the way I carry myself, the way I dress all the way down the the FABULOUS shoes I wear.
I had the oppurtunity to voice my opinion on the radio this morning, and I am sure I made my opinion VERY CLEAR! And the next time someone wants to assume because I a curvy girl, I have low self esteem or am easy, try to walk in my stilletos... you won't last 10 minutes. So, THANK YOU to Two Girls & a Guy for giving a curvy girl a chance to speak her mind and give the LowCountry a little something to think about. And a *special* THANK YOU to Tanya Brown, who, even over the phone, could tell how confident I am! :)
Oh how I wish I could have heard that. lol
