While scrolling on Facebook I couldn’t help but stop on a post that displayed this image. Almost one thousand women were commenting with their pictures, and what category they think they best fit into. I myself uploaded a picture, but the difference was that I did not place myself into any category. With my picture I wrote “I’m just human, I don’t put myself into categories.” I wrote that hoping that the other women would gain something from it. The more images posted the more I shook my head, which is why I’m bringing it to your attention. Many of the photos posted were provocative images, it was almost like they wanted to draw attention to their bodies. As I surfed through the comments I grew extremely frustrated, because I couldn’t help but ask why do us women feel like we have to categorize ourselves when it comes to our bodies. I also asked why do we have to sexually display ourselves to make a point. In this image there are SIX categories to choose from, and personally none of which I fall into, WHY? because we are ALL custom created. The ladies displayed in the image are uniquely built and shaped, ranging in different sizes, therefore none of the 963 women that commented belong in these categories. I want all women to understand that at the end of the day we are human, we are beautiful, and each and every single one of us are unique. So the next time you scroll across something that encourages you to put yourself into a category, be that one person that reminds the other women that they are all human and don’t belong in anyone’s category.

Girl I agree 100%! We are all unique, everyone’s body is different and that’s what makes us beautiful. I hate social media sometimes because it’s makes people compare themselves to false realities.

Personally I think it's natural for humans to compare themselves the key is not to lose perspective or to become dissatisfied.

I often found myself trying to figure out exactly which catogry I was in and then realized that when I was younger and before my son I was somewhere between thick and slim thick but only from the waist down at the top I had no boobs then I instantly started thinking about all the things I wanted to change about myself and how I wish I could go back to my old body before I carried my beautiful son then I realized back then I was so upset that I didn’t have boobs that I probably would probably never really be satisfied unless I could be thick or slim thick but it has to be exactly like the picture I want her body I thought and then I saw kash in which I carried and breast fed so that he could live a healthy life and I looked at my boobs and realized they’re really not that bad and i looked at my stomach and realized that I have stretch marks a few from my last pregnancy and a little more from Being pregnant now and they may nor go away and that’s okay it’s okay that I’m think in some places but full figured in other and on other day I’m a small BBW there’s not title for that and that’s okay I love me ❤️ And I doing exactly what my body is suppose to do carry life and carry purpose and with those two things sometimes change happens and that’s okay
