The title translates as "I am a Chubby Woman" which is, alas, precisely what I am. The following poem is a rant against the image of women being promoted through the media. You do not have to be skinny [scrawny] to be beautiful, ladies! Our bodies were actually meant to gain flesh! I call for a return to appreciation for the good things in life and a totalitarian ban on anorexic models. View table of contents...

Into His Hands

Wow I love you poem. It gave me a new perspective about myself. And your right, you don't have to be skinny to be pretty. You can be pretty by being you.

I'm glad it helped you. I never really cared much about skinny women and I hurt myself trying to get skinny. Besides, curvaceous women never really go out of style - no matter what the fashion hags say.
