I just saw drama unfold on a group I’m on because a woman had taken a selfie. She was called stuck up, too into herself, pretentious and self-indulged. Poor woman.
Sometimes, people take selfies for practical reasons i.e. there is no one else there. Some do it because they want to capture a moment or a memory either by themselves or with someone else. Some do it because they might be having a good day. And some people just fucking want to 🤷♀️
I know I speak for myself when I tell you when I post a selfie it’s because I felt good about myself. For that moment, my hair looked good, or I’ve lost weight, or my make up looks particularly nice that day.
We, as women, should be being each other’s champion. When women support each other, incredible things can happen. We should be building each other’s confidence and straightening each other’s crowns.
Next time you see a selfie on social media, just try and think of the confidence that took to take and to share. That person felt good about themselves for that snapshot moment. They’ve every right to share that.
In generations to come, all we’ll have is photos because one day we won’t be here and our grandchildren and great grandchildren might want to see a photo. Make it one where you felt good about yourself 💜
