Female Body Builders

When someone mentions female body builders many people have a negative reaction to these women or body builders in general. Most people think this is a disgusting way for women to portray themselves and it should not be available to the public.

I once thought that as well until I came to realize that this is something that is important to these women and who am I to judge what is or is not important in a person's life?

If you stop and think about it, it really is not any different than a woman that finds working out and a healthy lifestyle as important. These women just go to more lengths than most and enjoy doing so. They find what they are doing is healthy and feel as though they portray the body of a beautiful woman, just as the other women I had mentioned.

Unfortunately, they are many magazines and articles, such as Women's Health, that would disagree with this statement since women are supposed to be fit, tight and thin according to society. Once someone steps outside the standards, people are so quick to judge that person and create a negative stereotype.

I personally think it is great for these women to step outside the norm and do what makes them happy, not what will make society happy. Obviously, I do not support women that are affecting their health and are taking their workout to the extreme, but I support female body builders and their attitude on life. It is important for everyone to remember that society does not make your life worth living, you do.
