At last! I’m fighting for my wife, daughter, daughter-in-law, and 2 granddaughters in a world that hates real and beautiful women and only loves pretend women sold to us by the media. The only mirror anyone should trust is what is reflected in the eyes of someone who loves you unconditionally. Thank you Beautiful Body Project!

If you love a woman, or love a woman who loves herself — as I have for the last 43 years, thank you Genie - join this project and rejoice that someone is at last doing something to save women from our horrible anti-woman culture… women as they are need nothing but themselves and the only mirror a woman or a man should trust is their image reflected eyes of someone who loves them unconditionally. The greatest joy of my - male — life comes from looking at my wife, daughter, daughter-in-law, and 2 granddaughters and seeing THEM, not a media image. Their gift to me is the life within them that shapes their faces and bodies — givers of life and joy. My prayer for my granddaughters is that they love themselves as they are and don’t allow our stupid trivial culture to sell them what should be free: joy free from anxiety. My gift to them as a grandfather is to be the person they trust most to love them for themselves.

Have Your Voice Heard!

Now Accepting Stories From Women (Not Just Mothers) About Your Bodies From Around The World Of Any Race, Any Ethnicity, Any Sexual Orientation, Any Age!

Have YOUR Voice Heard!

Industries make millions of dollars when women feel insecure, ugly, competitive, & self-conscious. Let’s change that.

Women and mothers have the most amazing, difficult, passionate, and inspiring stories to tell about their bodies, their tiger stripes, battles with cancer & illness, stretch marks, sexual abuse or their thinning out, their gaining weight, their breast-feeding, their miscarriages and beyond. So many stories swirl around these bodies of ours and sharing our stories is the best way to empower ourselves, to realize we are not alone, to help others embrace their own bodies.

Silence keeps our voices and our beautiful selves unheard. By telling your story maybe you help another woman feel strong enough to tell hers.

Please include your name, city/state/country, phone number, email, and your story. Please do NOT include a photo.

Take Your Time! Compose your thoughts. There is no rush. Take notes. Maybe write an outline of your memories, thoughts, & feelings. Then, sit down, and write your story!

Here are some questions that can guide your story but by no means are these required guidelines:

How do you feel about your body?

What story or stories have you been carrying with you?

Was there a specific moment that defined your story or is it layered over time? Explain.

What hopes and dreams do you have for future generations of women?

What has helped your progress to feel beautiful & cultivate self-esteem?

Do you have marks from child-birth and what story do those represent for you?

Have you been keeping anything inside that you wish you could finally get out?

Have you been able to improve how you feel about yourself and if so, how?

Did you struggle to get pregnant? Did you have a miscarriage? Did you ever lose a child?

Did you ever have to abort a pregnancy?

What is your story about your body?

What would you like to be different in how you view your story and your body?
