Above discrimination, beautiful in every shape and size

WHAT does it mean to be a beautiful woman? Do you have to fall within a certain criteria to be considered one? Or should you let society define your worth as a woman? The truth is, there is no right or wrong definition of what it means to be beautiful – for beauty is merely a matter of subjective or personal appreciation.

Women come in all different shapes, sizes, races, ages, and skin colors. Everyone has different preferences and because of this, we should keep in mind that what may be beautiful to us may not be beautiful to others. Just like how some people consider the physical attributes of a woman as an important aspect in conceptualizing beauty more than those of the metaphysical ones.

Although this may be true to some, we must also take into consideration that other people have a completely different points of view regarding this matter. These people believe that beauty upholds a higher meaning and that is the fact that beauty shouldn’t only be aesthetically appealing to the eyes, but also to the soul and to the heart of the beholder.

We all can agree that women are different from each other in so many ways. They are loving mothers who would sacrifice everything in a heartbeat for their children. They are students who stay up late at night studying to make their parents proud of them. They are teachers who empower their students and make a difference in education.

They are labor workers who work all throughout the day to provide for their families. They are writers who want to touch the lives of many people by stringing beautiful words together. They are artists who make you see the world in a different light. They are ambitious individuals who want nothing but the best for themselves by filling in that room for self-improvement.

Women are many things but a sexual object isn’t one of them.

One’s respect towards women should not be contingent upon whether they’re someone’s wife, mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, or any other family role. All women deserve to be respected not because of their sexuality, but because they are human beings. They are human beings who are capable of feeling all sorts of emotions.

\What does it mean to be beautiful? There is no absolute answer to this question but one thing is for sure. Women of different shapes, sizes, races, ages, and skin colors are equally beautiful in their own unique ways regardless of society’s so-called beauty standards for the diversity of women from all over the world is one of the many things that makes life beautifully colorful.

To quote Andre Lorde, “It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.”/PN
