Overwhelmed. I never expected the amount of response my last post on the topic of body image would get. Thank you for sharing your own (both good and bad) experiences, for all of your messages and comments. ~
I’m not going to lie; there are still occasions where I feel self conscious of my body, especially in non-climbing contexts. It’s a process and I’m still learning. I’m glad we have started to address this important topic more. Because that is exactly what younger me would have wanted too; to actually talk about it, not treat it as the 🐘 in the room, so we can 🤜🏼destroy🤛🏼 this messed up image/standard of how a (female) body “should” look ~
Not here to fit my appearance into a shape and form that society (still) regards as “better” or more “feminine”. I just want to be me and continue doing what I love 💪🏼🤟🏼 Pic by @arveforce

So like, I never know whether to say this because it absolutely isn't about image or how I as a guy feel about image. But since even knowing that, it is normal to feel insecurities...the so called "better" ways people are supposed to look are bit really indicative of the varied preferences people who are attracted to women have. I personally find muscles and athletic bodies more attractive, not less (not saying I don't find other bodies attractive). It's not a binary thing. People have different preferences. Fitness might not be everyone's jam, or specific muscles might not be everyone's jam, but there are tons of people who LOVE that shit, and the gorup of people who think the shit that person messaged to you are not at all how most people think, despite the higher impact they might have in a vulnerable moment. Anyway, you are awesome Matilda ♥️ I'll smash a tomato plant in your honor.

I have muscly arms too and I'm not a climber. It's something easy to be self conscious of, and finding the freedom allowed by understanding our bodies are tools and vessels (tools and vessels for aesthetic purposes for some, which is fine and a good choice if it's what they want) has given me a lot of empowerment and joy and self acceptance. You are awesome and I like following you because you are pursuing your dream passionately and creating something with your life. Thanks for being inspiring.

I've only been climbing since last year, it has already started to change my body, I am stronger, fitter and more athletic than I've ever been in my life. When I look at somebody like you I see something to aspire to, I see excellence, strength and capability. These are qualities to admire and be inspired by.

Heck yeah people feel self-conscious all the time! Its part of being human! But we should all feel pride over not only ourselves, but over the process of working our asses off to make ourselves absolute weapons ;). Happy to have a role-model like you for climbing Matilda! Keep crushing and being awesome!

I just simply don’t understand what can anyone judge regarding your body? There’s absolutely nothing to complain about, others should just be happy to be and have what you have, modesty and beauty. ?

You’re amazing ? and just so you know: you’re a role model for two girls in my family. And that’s what counts. Not what some dim-witted fool thinks ?
