"The cultural messages on what is aesthetically pleasing seem to be more and more uniform. Perfection exists in such a tiny Goldilocks-style window (not too fat, not too thin, not too dark, not too pale, not too soft, not too muscular…). But truly beautiful people are not photoshopped. Inspiring music is not auto-tuned. Important art is not precise. We need to remember the appeal of imperfections."

This spunky, bi-racial woman (she's half Australian and half Indonesian!) from the land down under gave me the inspiration and the light-bulb moment to start our own body acceptance blog. Frances' articles are always (ALWAYS!!!) very brilliantly written, and her stand on body-image issues definitely influences hundereds, if not thousands, of people from all over the globe. Read her awesome blog, Corpulent, and see more of Frances' eye-popping, funky style and wonderfully written articles. :) Prepare to be inspired! ;)
