Big Beautiful Women Are Sexy Too!
Pages: 1 2
I am beautiful no matter what they say…
Words can’t bring me down–Christina Aguilera
My six-year old recently watched the movie/musical "Hairspray" and danced around the room to all the great 60’s styled tunes. Her favorite character: Tracy Turnblad! Who would have thought?
After being introduced to Barbie and Bratz dolls, who knew my daughter would think of Ms. Turnblad in the same way as her more shapely, thinner heroines?
But this is very good! Because for a culture obsessed in its need for thinner waif looking counterparts, Big Beautiful Women (BBW’s) are making it clear to the rest of the world they will neither be ignored nor marginalized.
The ideal
The fashion and entertainment culture for years have made it clear the only way people are attractive in the world is with the thin, athletic look.

But a funny thing happened on the way to the clothing rack one day. Big Beautiful Women had enough!
They determined they were happy with who they were, how they looked, and would not take the forced determination of the fashion world—or society in general—telling them they couldn’t be sexy and beautiful just like the thinner girls. It would be up to these beautiful women to make a stand for themselves and tell their world they are beautiful in their own special way.
