AFS Health & Fitness: Beauty and Fitness, A Nonconformist View

I consider myself a nonconformist in most things. But? let's examine my stance as a nonconformist from a fitness perspective to stay within the scope of this blog.

I am a nonconformist because I vehemently refuse to subscribe to the idea that a particular body type or what a person weight or even how they may appear to the masses categorizes them as being beautiful or even fit. I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK what anyone says or any damn book or school of thought teaches. In my opinion this is why society is so fucked up as it is today. Too much emphasis is being placed on body type or what some may percieve as perfect body symmetry and relating that to the only standard for beauty. FUCK THAT SHIT!

GOD made us all and we are all beautiful. I do not care what body type you are. I am sick and tired of the fitness and fashion industries and its professional perpetuating this bullshit about body type. While it is okay to appreciate someone's body type be it thin or large or whatever? that does NOT make it the standard for BEAUTY. This shit literally has people BRAINWASHED. That because someone may have physical aesthetics or "good body symmetry", whatever the fuck that means because I sure as hell don't know, DOES NOT mean they are fit. The sooner people realize this the better off most of us will be. I know larger than average people who live longer lives than thin people and who to me are more beautiful because they are pure of heart.? Fitness is a STATE OF MIND. If you are regulating fitness to a particular body type or look then your mind or thought process MAY be toxic. And as far as I am concerned a toxic mind is the first sign of someone who needs to improve their overall health and total wellness.

There are some people who get this and others who simply do not. Dove gets it Victoria's Secret does not. And it is this type of thing that poisons the mindset or leads people to think that thin equates to being fit. WRONG WRONG WRONG on all levels. It hurts me to the core though to see others judged or have assumptions made about them because of another persons view of what they feel is beautiful. This to me is a form ethnocentric thinking being applied to a more personal and direct level. Ethnocentrism is the tendency to judge a cultural or society by ones own cultural standards. Combine ethnocentric behavior with politics & economics and you got a formula for war in terms of societies and nations. Therefore ethnocentric thinking to me is TOXIC. In conclusion it as no place in determining fitness and least of all what is or is not beauty.

Peace and One Love,
Nuri
