Being curvy is becoming a global trend, where people are getting butt surgeries and doing hundreds of squats. But being curvy is not always fun and games. Some curvy girls got together on the Internet and talked about the issues they face on a daily basis that no one talks about.
Here are some of the problems that every curvy girl has faced at least once in their life.
1. Girls who eat
“When someone looks at you and says, “I love a woman who loves to eat,” as if that were a term of endearment.”
2. Sizing issues
“When it’s nearly impossible to find things in your size at fast-fashion stores, shopping is more like scavenger hunting.”
3. Rude people
“When people tell you they wish they had your level of confidence to wear certain clothes out of the house.”
4. Online shopping hassles
“You know not to bother with online shopping because 99% of companies use models that look nothing like you, so you really don’t know how anything will look. But every once in a while when you DO try shopping online, you find yourself doing mental gymnastics imagining how items would look on you.”
5. Big boobs hurt
“When people say you should be grateful you have thick thighs, big boobs, or just curves in general, it’s super annoying .They don’t know that big boobs come with lower back pain and bad posture.”
6. Tight clothes
“Dressing can become a challenge. Anything moderately tight-fitting such as a dress, a midi skirt, or even a loose top, has the potential to go very wrong because they can ride up, pop open, or just rip at the seams. You can never wear button-up shirts because you’re going to either pop buttons or have those awkward peep holes that show off your boobs.”
7. Chafing
“You always have a love-hate relationship with your thighs. You love them, but you could go without the chafing, especially in the summertime. Also, every single pair of pants eventually rips at the thigh or the butt. ”
8. Shorts become undies
“You just throw away the idea of wearing shorts in the summer because you know they are gonna ride up so bad, they’ll really just be underwear. Same with swimsuits because your curves will leave nothing to the imagination.”
