Fotos virales: mujeres que muestran sus celulitis

La joven canadiense Kenzie Brenna arrancó una campaña en las redes sociales que rápidamente se volvió viral. La chica, de 26 años,  fue la primera en subir una imagen mostrando orgullosamente la celulitis con el hashtag #CellulitesSaturday. Inmediatamente, miles de jóvenes primero en Canadá y Estados Unidos, y luego en todo el mundo, replicaron la iniciativa

Mensajes como "tengo celulitis como el 90 por ciento de la población femenina. No soy menos hermosa por eso, no valdríaa más si no la tuviera. Mi cuerpo no está mal, no es un problema que deba ser reparado. Mi cuerpo es suave, como el algodón. Y tiene curvas, como un violí­n", se viralizaron en Instagram.

Ahora, en Argentina, el grupo AnyBody convoca a las mujeres a sumarse para mañana con el hashtag #CelulitisSabado. "Nuestra sociedad, los medios y las industrias fomentan una imagen 'perfecta', gracias al retoque digital, que no existe en el mundo real", aseguró a Clarí­n Sharon Haywood, fundadora de la organización.

*I promise this post has a purpose other than showing you my bum* So this incredibly inspiring girl that I follow, @omgkenzieee has started a movement called #cellulitesaturday and I think that it is SO important! . Guess what dudes, I have cellulite🙋🏼 Yes, me. The girl that works out 6x a week, lifts heavy, does cardio, does plyometrics, eats a well balanced and healthy diet HAS CELLULITE! And if you're a woman and you're reading this, you probably have it too because cellulite affects 90% of women. NINETY! But here's another thing, IT IS NOT AN INDICATOR OF YOUR HEALTH OR FITNESS LEVEL! Cellulite is GENETIC. Cellulite is the APPEARANCE of fat cells (which we all have). It's literally just the way your skin lays over your subcutaneous fat tissue (the fat right under the surface of your skin). So YES, cellulite is NORMAL and it is OKAY TO HAVE! It does not mean you're fat. It does not mean you're unhealthy. And you DO NOT "need" to get rid of it. The "issue" with cellulite is not a health and fitness issue; it's a COSMETIC issue. We have been wired to think this stuff is bad but in reality, it's just as normal as having freckles or brown hair. I realize that mine might not be as noticeable as some people's; but it's there and it affects me. Do I love this part of my body yet? No, not at all. The backs of my legs are probably my LEAST favorite part of my body. But I'm working towards accepting it, and I hope you are too because guess what, ITS NORMAL! Happy Saturday beauties💕 #idontwantyourcellulitecream #effyourbeautystandards

I was on twitter earlier explaining how I was feeling a bit insecure bout' my liddle glootes 🍑🍑🍑 And I'll say it to you cause I need to say it to myself: 1. You weren't put here to only be looked at for your body. 💜 2. Your self worth is not defined by a part of your body. 🌷 3. The way you treat others is much more important than beating yourself up for simply existing. 💞 4. Giving yourself flowers, nourishing your body and being there for a friend all matter way more than being upset we don't "fit into norms." ✨ You are not defined by one part of your body. You are OKAY as you are BECAUSE YOUR ACTIONS MATTER MORE. Because the way you act towards yourself and others help change the world. DONE. BYE. #loveuguys #allbodiesaregoodbodies #celebratemysize #YOUARELOVED #SOFKNLOVED

HAPPY #cellulitesaturday MY DARLING DEAR ONES 🙌🏼👏🏼 I have cellulite and so does 90% of the female population. I am no less beautiful with it, no more valuable without it. My body is not wrong, it is not a problem to be fixed. My body is soft, like cotton. It is curvy, like a violin. It shows me where I have been and all the things I am because of where I come from. I have learned to listen to it and revere it and allow it to speak to me in a language that's just for me — a body love that's taken years to learn — but one that now flows from my mouth like a native tongue because it was inside of me all along. I celebrate #cellulitesaturday because NOT celebrating my body isn't part of my vocabulary anymore 💕🙌🏼 #embracethesquish
