Whale or Mermaid?

mixmastermolly

A while back, at the entrance of a gym, there was a picture of a very thin and beautiful woman. The caption was "This summer, do you want to be a mermaid or a whale?"

The story goes, a woman (of clothing size unknown) answered the following way:

"Dear people, whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, seals, curious humans), they are sexually active and raise their children with great tenderness.
They entertain like crazy with dolphins and eat lots of prawns. They swim all day and travel to fantastic places like Patagonia, the Barents Sea or the coral reefs of Polynesia.
They sing incredibly well and sometimes even are on cds. They are impressive and dearly loved animals, which everyone defend and admires.

Mermaids do not exist.

But if they existed, they would line up to see a psychologist because of a problem of split personality: woman or fish?
They would have no sex life and could not bear children.
Yes, they would be lovely, but lonely and sad.
And, who wants a girl that smells like fish by his side?

Without a doubt, I'd rather be a whale.

At a time when the media tells us that only thin is beautiful, I prefer to eat ice cream with my kids, to have dinner with my husband, to eat and drink and have fun with my friends.

We women, we gain weight because we accumulate so much wisdom and knowledge that there isn't enough space in our heads, and it spreads all over our bodies.
We are not fat, we are greatly cultivated.
Every time I see my curves in the mirror, I tell myself: "How amazing am I ?! "

I saw this on Facebook too, and it made me happy. It had a photo with it, that I thought was BEAUTIFUL, of a plus-size woman.....Some people made obnoxious comments about how she was fat, and it made me want to punch them for 1) not getting the point of the story and 2) finding someone who was BEAUTIFUL to be nothing more than "fat". She was heavy, but gorgeous. People make me so mad!

I don't know which I'd prefer, all I know is when I wear gray to the beach they try to roll me back in... :-P

Good read though.

Thanks for sharing.

Speak for yourself, I gained weight because I ate too much crap and rarely got up off my big fat *kitten*.

I have the wisdom and knowledge to do something about that.
