I spent years wholeheartedly believing these four words.
This phrase consumed my thoughts to the point where I never thought I would be good enough until I could stop eating for good.
And I know I am not the only one.
If you have ever felt this way – or you feel that way now – just take a moment to remind yourself of two things:
1. PRETTY GIRLS DO EAT.
2. BEING PRETTY IS NOT THE ONLY VALUE YOU HAVE AS A WOMAN
Im not the first person to point these things out. And I sure as hell hope I am not the last. But I hope one day when you google “pretty girls eat” that you see something different.
One day I want little girls to google “pretty girls eat” and see pictures of beautiful women like this.
Women who are not only beautiful, but so much more. (and if you follow them you KNOW that they all eat!)
Fuck “pretty girls don’t eat” Because we do. And we should remind each other of that until every lost girl who has had the misfortune of believing such a terrible lie can be shown the truth:
PRETTY GIRLS EAT.
HEALTHY girls eat.
STRONG girls eat.
DETERMINED girls eat.
CONFIDENT girls eat.
SMART girls eat.
HAPPY girls eat.
PRETTY. GIRLS. EAT.
OMG I NEVER SAW THIS WTF THIS IS BEAUTIFUL
Brb crying. I wish something like this would have been around when I was dealing with eating disorders. This is beautiful.
Arranged Marriage AU where Harry is the king of one country
and Eggsy is the prince of another; their kingdoms have constantly been on the brink
of war, but they both desire peace. The only way to secure peace, however, is
through an arranged marriage. Because Eggsy is the only heir of King Lee’s that
is of age, he’s promised to King Harry.
Eggsy, of course, resents this and is completely against the
marriage. But at the same time, he knows that it’s his duty to do what he can
for his people, so he reluctantly goes along with it. Likewise, Harry is
apprehensive at the thought of marrying Eggsy (who is half his fucking age),
but his council has informed him that there’s no other way to establish peace,
so he has to go along with it too.
Neither of them has seen the other, so they’ve formed these
warped expectations of each other. Eggsy believes Harry to be this ridiculously old, snobbish, and stuck-up
asshole, while Harry expects Eggsy to be a spoiled, arrogant brat.
Imagine their surprise when they finally meet, a week before
the wedding. Harry is actually rather handsome for someone older (and he’s not
even that old), and Eggsy… Well,
Harry thinks he’s the most beautiful person he’s ever seen. Of course, things
are still awkward between them, but by the time the wedding rolls around, they’re
at least semi-comfortable with each other.
And then, after they’re married, they slowly fall in love.
There’s awkward flirting, not-so-subtle pining, and obvious lust. Then after months of this they finally sleep together
and everything is good and they rule their kingdoms together through the greatest era of peace they’ve ever known. *q*
Also, Roxy is King Harry’s ward and Eggsy’s first/closest
friend when he first comes to the kingdom. Merlin is Harry’s most trusted
advisor, while Chester is that one asshole in the court who’s more motivated by
furthering his own power than he is peace, so he tries to sabotage the marriage
by having Eggsy killed (thus sparking a war between the two countries) but he’s
thwarted in the end because happy endings
Pietro is always saying these things that sound a whole lot to Clint like double entendres–really dirty ones–but whenever Clint calls him on it he’s all ‘oh gosh sorry, English isn’t my first language you know, and that’s really rude you pointing it out like that isn’t it?’ and then Clint feels bad but he doesn’t see Pietro immediately bursting into laughter as soon as Clint leaves the room and Wanda scolding him like ‘he’s gonna figure it out eventually, nobody is THAT stupid’ to which Pietro’s all ‘yes but don’t tell him until at least next week cause I’ve got money in the betting pool for it being next week.’
But then Wanda does tell him because she’s got money on it being this week
Steve’s out on his morning run, when he suddenly hears a voice yell out “ On your left!”
A blue haze speeds by.
Nathaniel Pietro Barton, you were named for two people I’ve once attempted to kill but ended up saving my ass. One of whom I’ve never seen coming, and he was the bravest man I ever knew.
