Critcising Kim Kardashian's cellulite is just wrong
Love her or hate her, if the only criticism you can honestly think to throw at Kim Kardashian is the fact she has cellulite, then you need to grow up. She might not be the great feminist triumph we all want, but the fact that the whole Western world seems to be split in opinion over an un-edited picture of a bum.
She arguably has the most famous arse and it was so heavily discussed last week, it turned absolutely ridiculous. After a photo of her standing on the beach in a bikini surfaced, her bum didn't look as smooth and perfect as previous photos seem to show, revealing that despite popular belief, Kim Kardashian is actually...human.
The photos have led people to discuss whether or not the plastic surgery rumours are real, because well, these photos show the least plastic surgery-esque bum ever. It has also led to many discussing the fact that (shock horror) the Kardashians might actually airbrush pictures. A lot of people have reported on how 'crushed' Kim is after the untouched photos have gone viral and I'm sure she's crying herself to sleep in her $20 million dream mansion, honestly.
Now, I don't think you have to be a fan of Kim Kardashian to realise that sticking your nose up to cellulite is just wrong. Maybe just appreciate that Kim doesn't actually care what people think of her body and respect that she's actually promoting curves and 'imperfection'. There are some dangerous diets / fads that can be extremely unhealthy. Maybe we should be embracing the fact that a high profile celebrity is walking around, cellulite and all, with complete body confidence.
And if you think you're on higher ground than Kim K because "she's a bad example" or a "narcissist" but you're snubbing cellulite, than you're honestly no better.
