Your Partner's Body Will Change - Get Over It

Your body is a fragile monument to you. It carries you through the multitude of experiences that we call life. Like you, your body is bound to change, evolve, degrade, and grow. It's just a natural part of life. We're very aware of this process, that's why we have a thing called "body image."

Body image is a sensitive issue. We all have an intensely close relationship to our bodies. We monitor every physical change we go through and meticulously document everything in an attempt to be better. We strive toward unrealistic standards of beauty in an attempt to fit in.

We owe it to those we love not to enforce those toxic ideals. In his newest video, Matt Joseph Diaz breaks down why it's unacceptable for people to shame their partner's changing bodies. If we agree to love someone, we must agree to love every part of them. No one needs pressure from a loved one to conform to any standard of beauty. We should love others as they are.

Body positivity is an incredibly important facet of a healthy outlook on life. If we can't love people regardless of their shape and size then we are refusing to take accountability for our own insecurities. Never forget that.
