I must admit when I was younger I was carefree, didn't care how I looked to others. I was happy in myself. I wasn't tall, nor skinny, nor fat. I was your typical Australian girl, blonde hair, blue eyes and freckles in which I had many. As the years went past, the bikini turned into a one suit, the hair got shorter not down the end of my back, and I guess you could say I became more self aware of myself.
When changing at a swimming contest, I noticed I would keep the towel around me not to show myself. I would admire the tanned skin of the other ladies and think why did I have freckles and fair skin.
Body acceptance I have noticed is a concern for people now than ever before. Our fashion magazines ask for us to look skinny, tall, not too muscly, and the diets are truly ridiculous. I note that when my 20's past and the 30's hit. I became happier in myself. Nothing really has changed except me. I feel for all the young girls that are so self conscious and cover up there bodies only to hide what they see as a flaw when in fact nothing is a flaw but something to be proud of that is your body.
I say, gone are the days of being ashamed, self-conscious, and just being overall upset with how we look! The 2015 body-acceptance movement is all about teaching everybody how to practice self-love. Seeing some superstars like Beyonce and J.Lo paving the way for women everywhere that as long as you love how you look, nobody else's opinion matters.
