Body Images: A Rant/Commentary By Sukai Todd

Good Evening Readers,

Hello, wherever you guys are! I hope everyone is feeling well, when they read this blog. And hopefully, they will get a better understanding of my views of body image through this blog. Trigger Warning: I talk about body image and body shaming openly, in this blog post (obviously), I also reference anime porn (which I despise) and some strong language is used. So proceed with caution, if you do decide to continue reading. Thanks!

Okay, let’s begin with the most obvious elephant in the room. I’m a slim girl and I’m not saying that to brag, but I’m fairly slim and trim. I weigh around 146 lbs. It’s not my ideal weight, but I think I’m beautiful on the inside and out. Also, if you’re wondering; my eyes are my favorite feature on my body. No, not my ass. Not my breaststiz, but my eyes. I love the chocolaty eye color, I have. And being a brown eyed blonde, is a gift and a curse; especially in the society where it’s basically unspoken that most blondes are dumb, slutty, gold digging, talentless idiots after money on reality shows. But that’s not true for all of us! So, keep that in mind as you continue to read this blog post…

Now, let’s get really deep and grimy with this blog. I can’t tell you how many videos and posts, I’ve seen about thicker women and men talking to “fit people” about their problems and how “rare” it is for them to be truly loved by “skinny people”. And ya’ know, what? I’m here to tell you, that’s not true! That’s some bullshit, to me… Why? Because I love people of all shapes and sizes; because I don’t look at weight as attractive, I look at personality as attractive. And honestly, I think beauty comes in all forms! It’s not restricted to “skinny” or “fat”. Nor should it be portrayed that way… So, yea, those my opinions on that!

And if you want my opinion, on being loved as a “skinny girl”. Guess what? Love isn’t easy for me, either! Why? Because they are plenty of unworthy (as in their personalities suck worse than the hentai franchise “Oni Chichi”) guys who were tall, slim and trim and they didn’t love any girl! They loved what they could get from women, of all different sizes. My ex “Prince Eric” is a prime example, he likes women of all shapes and sizes. Not for their inner and outer beauty, but what they gave him sexually and how they boosted his ego. Although I’m probably the only girl, who didn’t sleep with him… So, he picked the wrong bitch to try and be a bum-ass hoe with! And I’ll go ahead and admit, I cried for that hoe… (Yes, that’s a great quote from a Facebook page although I don’t remember the page. If you have Facebook, I’m sure you can find it. Or just Google the quote!). So, for any thicker women who complaining about “hard” love is to find and “easy” us “skinny girls” have it. Maybe, think about how we have issues as well! You’re not the only ones and it’s cruel, for you to blame us for problems that we actually all deal with. Okay?

Alright, let’s get really deep and dark. When it comes to body image, in my mind; I’m a slim trim Sailor Moon with a beautiful curvy, bootylicious body and look good in any cosplay. In reality, I need to work out more and dance a lot harder than I have been (although keep in mind, it’s my time of the month… “The Red Sea is Flowing”; so it’s easier to be lazy right now. More on that in another blog post.) in order to really look good in the next cosplay I’m rocking at my next convention in Birmingham, Alabama. Of course, I’m not telling you what that cosplay is because I don’t like sharing my surprises… But if you see me at Magic City Con 2018 on Saturday, you’ll know me, when you see me. Mainly because of my brown eyes and beauty mark, lol! I think those traits stand out, fairly well in a crowd… So, just keep that in mind; if you live locally and you’re reading this lolz!

So, if you think it’s easy to keep up a “banging body” with my weight and the cosplays, I wear… Once more, think again! I earn the beauty, I have in my cosplays! So, don’t leave any comments saying “It’s easy for you…”. Because it’s NOT. I struggle with body image, just like everyone else. Sometimes, I look in the mirror and I see a flat stomach and a beautiful body (which logically is what I do look like). And other times, I bloated, overweight girl who needs to go on a K-Pop diet for good! But I love food, so it’s a double-edged sword. So, while I’m not fat-shaming anyone; I do think women who are thick skinny-shaming young women like me – Need to, in a word: STOP! Because, we all bleed the same color blood. We all have the same issues with bitch-ass hoes, who call themselves “men”. And we all deserve to be loved, for who we are, as we are, for what we are!

Which leads me to my next point, I think the biggest problem in our society for women is not realizing that with or without a handsome man or “prince” or even “king” by our side; we’re somehow “Not good enough” or “not enough” in general. And that’s wrong! We ARE enough! We are actually just fine, in our flaws. We ARE ENOUGH! And we shouldn’t be worrying about our body type, in order to please people. The reason I work out and want to look good in cosplays, is to fulfill the body image I have in my head. It’s for myself… Not for anyone else! Because if it’s one thing, I’ve learned since 2008 is that I am enough, in myself. And I don’t need to change for anyone, but myself… And even with always working to become a better version of myself, honestly I think me being who I am; right here, right now — It’s enough! Because I’m not sugarcoating shit. I’m not pretending I’m perfect and I’m sure as hell, not on a pedestal! In my own, humble opinion. But one thing I know I am, is enough. I am enough! 

And guess what, dear reader? You are too! You’re enough! You ARE enough! Not simply because you read this blog, although I do appreciate it. But you’re enough for just being you! Whoever you are, whatever you cosplay, whatever you believe in, whatever your sexuality is, whatever body image you have and/or struggle with. You ARE ENOUGH! Right here, right now. You’re worthy. And you’re worthy of all the love in the world! Including the love for yourself, that you deserve more than anything. You’re enough, just as you are… And no-one can change that or take belief away from you, unless you allow them to. Please remember this! And this is something, I tell myself every day. That I’m enough! Because I am enough… No, I’m not perfect. No, I’m not “where I wanna be”. Yes, I’m not where used to be. But honestly, there is no finish line for me. I’ve learned that life is an adventure, so why not enjoy every minute of it? Which is not to say, I don’t suffer and have struggles, like everyone else. If you’ve been reading any of my previous blogs, you know I’m just a humanoid Moon princess here to help the world and make a positive impact! In whatever way that happens, whether it’s through blogging or music. Or just touching someone with the power of my words. Whatever way, I can make a little positive change in the world; is what makes me happy!

And I’m not a self-help guru or life coach. I’m just a humanoid Moon Star, born to be myself and make music! I’m not born to lead humanity or make millions off of books about how people can better themselves. That’s not me, at all! I’m just me. Skye DeVera Moon! And I don’t try to be anything else, but me and express who I am in that moment. Because, we’re all multifaceted, in my belief. So, I bet you’re wondering what the point is, by now, eh?

To conclude this blog, I’m going to reuse a quote in an earlier blog I made from Lao Tzu. And it is something, I think all women need to hear and hopefully, it will stop a little of this divisive attitude that women are having towards each-other. So, here’s a classic quote from Lao Tzu: “Because she competes with no-one, no-one can compete with her.”. Those are my two or three cents, on this subject. That’s really it! But remember, you are enough. 🙂

Thanks For Reading,

Sukai Todd! ^_^
