Big Girls Don't Cry!


Big girl by Roland Dawson! December 2017.



Big girls today often receive veiled compliments saturated with pity for being big; at the same time sounding grateful for their beauty, making over exaggerated exclamations to sound like they approve of the weight, and make sounds like they enjoy looking at a big woman's fashion sense! The truth is many women struggle with how big, big women are because they want to live up to a standard of beauty that defies who they really are physically.

What a conflict!

It is acceptable to pose as a tolerant person and being overweight is considered the worse state to be in, so how do women justify sounding appreciative of big women? It is a big dilemma of the modern American woman. We see it all the time on television. It is absurd, and pitiful to a lot of us men. We like what we like and a lot of us simply like big women. 

It is hard to tell if there is envy or pity in tolerant people pushed into a corner to be accepting.

I wish for authenticity to be found by them at some point in their lives, but people are afraid of it. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12/28/17



"... [This] big legged Black woman's joy isn't from the hip fashionable panel dress weaving a glorious way around her body, it is the simplicity of how fine she feels, how  fine she is..." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Storie


Women like this short thick sensuous creature, lurks in the back of men's mind the way the thought of being accepted for who one is, revolves around the story of need! - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories


Dashikis worn by these women are far removed from Black pride, or power. They are just sexually appealing on ideal body types. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories
