Our Founder, Mary Beth Cooper
Welcome to the world of Curvicality: a magazine – and community – for curvy, plus-size women.
What’s wrong with me? Do I really look like this? Is my stomach really that big? Why are pants so tight. Uuggghhhh, I need to lose weight. I’m sure we’ve all said these things out of our mouths.
So you’ve finally figured out how to love your body, or at the very least be at peace with it. Now what?
When Marlee Dater and Lauren Baez briefly met at a New York audition, they had no idea that the brief meeting would change their lives … and the lives of other curvy artists around the country.
If you’re a Madonna fan, you’ve undoubtedly sang the lyrics, “Strike a pose there’s nothing to it … Vogue” hundreds of times. But is it really that easy?
Why Body-Based Compliments Are Harmful and What You Can Say Instead
What would it take for you to be grateful for your body? For me, I had to almost lose my life.
A lot of us are doing the hard work of learning to love our bodies just as they are. But how can we raise our children to love their bodies, sparing them the hurt we went through?
Chances are, if you’re a plus-size woman, you’ve run into this scenario: Some of your pals have invited you to lunch. It’s spring, and finally time to socialize after a long winter. Maybe you haven’t seen each other in a while. You banter, catch up with each other’s lives, drink mimosas and wine, and have a grand old time.
Have you ever looked in the mirror and compared yourself to the woman standing next to you and thought “Wow, why couldn’t I look that good?”
We’ve all got a story about plus-size body image. Here’s mine.
Congratulations, Demi, and thank you for sharing your challenge with your body image!
