I WILL NOT Apologize for Being Plus Size!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at NCAT chapter.

I’m not plus-size-ish,

I’m Big, Phat and Thick.

 

Every time I walk by you hear a “swish”

And the sweet classy sound of my heels click.

 

The way my thighs glide,

And the way my hips shake.

 

I can take a good picture from the side,

And your man will still want a second take.

 

“Oh, you’re pretty for a big girl” they say,

But I know haters are gonna’ hate.

 

I just mind my business and continue to slay,

Those comments won’t stop me from being great.

 

But I was born this way,

Right from between my mother’s hips.

 

I don’t listen to what people say,

Or take their “helpful” tips.

 

Unapologetic and natural.

Authentic and Real.

 

It’s all factual,

Because I look like a full course meal!

 

I must admit, sometimes it gets hectic,

But I’ll always love ME still.

 

I’m beautiful inside and out,

And that is one thing for sure.

 

It’s without a doubt,

That I’m the one everyone will always adore.

 

Why am I so happy and full of life?

It’s a question that they all ask.

 

I said it once and I’ll say it twice.

And this time I’ll even add some sass…

 

I WILL NOT Apologize for Being Plus Size!

Hello! My name is Krystal and I love talking, writing, and fashion!
Hi everyone! I am a sophomore at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University who should be majoring in Weddings, but is actually a Journalism & Mass Communications student with a concentration in Multimedia. Originally I am from Woodbridge, Virginia, which is about 30 minutes south of our nation’s capital. I have lived here all my life, but I’m not afraid to branch out and explore the world. This past summer I studied abroad in Sydney, Australia to engage and immerse myself in Australian culture. The experience was phenomenal and I’m already counting down the days until I can return that beautiful country. Check out my Tumblr, Instagram, Pinterest, and Facebook.
