Dante Bitches About Glamour Magazine Women Of The Year Complaints

Some people use their anger or hatred like a shotgun. They will be mad at one thing and end up buck-shooting something that was a little bit too close. I'm more of a sniper with mine. I focus, aim, and go after one topic. Glamour magazine released their Women Of The Year for 2015 and people have been losing their shit for a multitude of reasons because of this. Some because they hate transgenders. Some because they hate anything Jenner/Kardashian related. Some because they do not believe that Caitlyn Jenner should be included in the category of Woman Of The Year.

Don't get it twisted. This isn't Time magazine. It's fucking Glamour. I won't say it doesn't matter because it is a fashion magazine or whatnot but I get upset when they make Batman's cape too short but I will say...it doesn't matter. One writer who wrote a post that was full of all the anger said “By choosing Jenner as woman of the year, Glamour endorses the idea that men are better at being women than we are.” She also mentioned ovulating and having four daughters who I hope do not inherit her anger. She also pointed out the example of “Martine Rothblatt, a transgender woman, graced the cover of New York Magazine as highest-paid female CEO in the nation. Apparently real women can't cut it, so we've got to import men into our ranks to win awards.”

Its About Comfort

There has been a lot of stuff in the news regarding the human body and its appeal and health. No, not the usual bullshit that I tire of hearing about like how everything we put in our body is toxic but was fine before articles began telling you it wasn't. Or how no one knows what the words organic or natural mean. Or what it truly means to have lactose or gluten allergies. This is about two separate people in the news for different reasons.

The first is plus sized model Tess Holliday also known as Tess Munster. She is 5 foot 5 and has the size of 49-49-52. That last bit of information means nothing to me because lady sizes are confusing to me. Please, don't waste your time explaining them to me because I'll forget moments later. She is known as a body-love activist and started the hashtag (pound sign!) #EffYourBeautyStandards. “I created the hashtag because I was tired of being told what I could and couldn't wear by the media and how I should cover my body because of my size. I decided 'eff that,' I will wear what I want!”

Some are saying that her weight is unhealthy. Other support her confidence and say she looks beautiful the way she is. Me, I say it comes down to comfort. If she was in a point in her life where her size made it so she couldn't do what she wanted to do it'd be an issue. 

“I understand not everyone understands what I'm about. But to me it's such a simple concept. It's all about loving your body regardless of your size and chasing your dreams.” she said. Most things in life aren't an issue until you make it one. As far as I know she stands there and has pictures taken of her body for money.
