My body isn't perfect. Shall I just leave the way I came in?





"In all the times you have undressed infront of a man, has he ever got up and left? No. He's in front of a naked woman. He's won the lottery." - Eat, Pray, Love. 

If you've ever visited TheDirty.com, you know about the infamous "WOULD YOU?" page. This is a page where readers can post photos of women they want Nik Richie to comment on. In every post, they say a little bit about the person (good, bad, true or false)and at the end they say, "So Nik, Would you?" His answer is almost always "No." 

Here are a few examples of his charming comments: 

"No, she’s a curve-less horse.  Her nose is bigger then her t*ts and her backs more wrinkly then her hair."- Nik

"NO, she has a muffin top on the top and the bottom, it happens when your thunder thighs bunch up." - Nik

"No, I can’t tell which are her rolls and which are her flapjacks." - Nik

Cute, huh?

Now, this website and Nik Richie's twitter receive countless requests from the women themselves asking Nik for advice on how to make themselves more beautiful in his opinion. This is a heartbreaking tale of insecure women wanting approval from someone that doesn't deserve their time in the first place. 

Thank-You very much for your unsolicited opinions Nik, but not every woman needs a nose job, breast implants and a scarily-low BMI to be considered sexy, or even perfect. 

The only place that it's cool to be like everyone else is in junior high. After that, you want to be unique and original. 

The Clean Team believes in loving what you were born with, making choices that make you feel good and telling the toxic people with harsh opinions to kiss your cellulite-filled a$$! Now, this is not to say that we don't believe in getting a "touch-up" or two at a aesthetics clinic, but the choice should be your own and influenced by no one else. 

In this Blogger's opinion, you should do your best to be fit and healthy but never allow one person's opinion to negatively affect how you feel about yourself. 

Until Next Time...
