In 2016, we live in a world that criticize women for their physical appearances. In the May issue of Harper’s Bazaar, Jennifer Lawrence, a favorite among collegiettes everywhere, states that we desperately need to redefine beauty norms.
“I would like us to make a new normal-body type. Everybody says, ‘We love that there is somebody with a normal body!’ And I’m like, ‘I don’t feel like I have a normal body.’ I do Pilates every day. I eat, but I work out a lot more than a normal person. I think we’ve gotten so used to underweight that when you are a normal weight it’s like, ‘Oh, my God, she’s curvy.’ Which is crazy. The bare minimum, just for me, would be to up the ante. At least so I don’t feel like the fattest one.”
