To all my UK commuters.. did you read the metro on the 22nd of April?
And for people not in the UK... here is the link to the article
Jamelia is a well known pop icon here in the UK, and she was on the show 'Loose Women' expressing her views on how plus size clothes shouldn't be in the high street shops; because it supports people to stay overweight.
Now. I'm in neutral. Because I understand where she is coming from, but at the same time, there are many conditions that are around in this day and age that cause people to be overweight. I watch this show called 'Whitney, Fat Girl Dancing' and Whitney suffers from PCSO, which stands for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, in which weight gain is one of the contributing factors.
It's not an excuse, because there are a lot of people who suffer from this particular disorder and are actively trying to lose weight and work on restoring their health-- so for these people, should they not have decent clothes to wear?
But what is 'plus size' exactly? It's not only overweight people, there are very busty ladies out there, w ho need the extra material to be able to cover themselves up modestly. And lets be honest here, there are very curvaceous ladies out here too, who need the correct size to accommodate their shape-- no this is not me talking in code, it is very true! Everyone was not created the same; there are different shapes and sizes and if a lady is size 18 and curvy, I don't think that should be classified as overweight.
But... over to you guys--- a saying that I heard from one youtuber by the name 'bronzegoddess' is 'Opinions are like belly buttons, everyone has one'
Share your opinion, what are your thoughts?
