For the women who are UNCOMFORTABLE with nudity…. The next 3 are for you.

For the women who are UNCOMFORTABLE with nudity... The next 3 are for you.

It has continuously been brought to my attention that, although men promote a consistent amount of body negativity, women are the ones that do the most damage; to one another as well as ourselves.

Women tend to have a difficult time accepting a woman’s choice to be nude without giving negative feedback. To be a woman and still be able to disregard the amount of bravery that it takes to publicly encourage other women to embrace themselves in ALL forms, it cannot be written off as merely being a “personal preference”. Coming from a woman that promotes self acceptance, it tends to be a much deeper issue than just that of preference. You can reserve an opinion. I encourage it. However, to slander someone that represents alternative options for YOU on this planet, to be dismissive and malicious to someone, while not understanding that they are honestly just fighting against a system of oppression that continues to make YOU feel like YOU have to live up to these rules that only affect the female species… It just reads as counterproductive.

I know that a lot of this has to do with personal insecurities that you yourself are not in a state of mind to identify and rehabilitate. With acknowledging that, shaming a woman who has put a tremendous amount of heart and energy into self acceptance, it tends to says a lot more about you than it does her. It actually cracks me up, that women allow nipples and areolas to stop them from being free from mandatory consumerism. This forces me to mention that nipples are allowed to be free only to feed life, but that too is normally shunned and limited in a public setting. We are NOT ALLOWED TO LIVE LIFE FREELY. Pussy, tits and ass are all considered a treasure that we must keep boxed in until a man gives us enough attention and material gain, to then again, put back on display for his satisfaction. Yet, you are allowed to accentuate these curves as much as possible, with expensive clothing that do little for your internal growth while promoting your external worth. How do you not see that our bodies are still commodities? In fact, clothes are more harmful than they are problem solving. I say that because we tend to judge one another based off of first impressions, rather than first interactions. If we stopped focusing so much energy on how we are perceived from the outside looking in, wouldn’t it give us a larger opportunity to work on us from the inside out? I believe that most women who take on a more nude lifestyle tend to understand their depth at much quicker pace.

I just find it interesting​ that women continue to move against a wave that was created and is empowered by women who merely seek reciprocity. I am puzzled with the reality that women continue to attack one another for their differences in personal options, as if it affects THEIR personal CHOICE. Be whoever the fuck you want as long as you don’t hurt anyone. Which is exactly what you intend to do when you shame other women. Your goal, normally, is to defeat their spirit in hopes that they will recede into your logic. Why don't you ever see it from the other side? Why are you still choosing to push out your ally? You are so concerned with how others may respond to a woman’s body and how that may affect their response to you, that you don’t analyze if your response is more harmful than helpful​. You disregard the fact the men continue to remove themselves from how they treat women. You refuse to connect that we are pivoted to clash with our sisters rather than question the actions and delegations enforced and upheld by men. You choose not to interpret your lasting affect on someone who relates to your internal strife. You ignore that it may be more conditioned than self promoted. It gives the perception that people are not capable of forming individual opinions on individual human beings, without grouping them all into a “type” or “classification”. I mean, if that’s how you feel… Than what are you even fighting to protect?

I get that questioning your ways is difficult: scarey even. I also understand that it's a lot easier to stay blinded in your comfort. But isn't that how platforms like steemit are innovated? Through challenging thought, and removing prolonged comfortability? By challenging the masses and encouraging the world to shift in a direction that isn't accepted by all, but necessary for the growth in the community? Until you take some needed time, to extensively observe your personal CHOICES and why they are “chosen", maybe you should spend less time spewing hate at women who ARE focusing on their internal, as well as their external growth. Maybe you should strip down to your BARE SKIN, and stand in front of a full length mirror. I truly believe, from experience, that then and only then will you realize if the hatred you push onto others is a projection of the hatred that you have subliminally been taught from your peers and society. Hatred that has subconsciously left scars on the way you view self. For we are, without a grain of doubt, a reflection of one another. Until you learn how to accept yourself, you will never be free enough to accept others, even when they sponsor affirmative transformations.

Namaste Women, Namaste.
