Beauty hasn’t always been so mixed up with thinness. For a lot of history, the characteristics of the most celebrated beauties had little to do with tiny waistlines and toned arms. And when we admit that beauty is still not just about weight, we are forced to admit that body image is more complex…If body image is about more than weight, and beauty is about more than being thin, and if most of us are failing to fit the standards of beauty stuck in our brains, then what’s really happening is that these standards are painfully inadequate. They have failed to account for our diversity. They have neglected to acknowledge all of the ways that we automatically consider each other attractive without referring first to a lingerie catalog or a hottest bikini bodies list.
