A rainbow typically refers to a meteorological phenomenon that is a spectrum of light appearing in the sky when the sun shines onto rain droplets in the atmosphere. It consists of various colours, often arranged in a specific order: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet (ROYGBIV).
If you're asking about "rainbow" in the context of
measuring body sizes, it's a term used in fashion or clothing industries
to describe a range of sizes or a diverse set of options. For example, a brand
might offer a "rainbow" of sizes to indicate inclusivity and cater
to various body types.
Today when I was sitting with the Owner of a well-known brand's learned
about a phrase for plus-size apparel. This way, anyone who is plus-size won't
feel body shamed when they go shopping and are labelled huge or any other term
that offends them. I applaud companies that consider women of these sizes
and help them develop a positive body image.
Given the relentless bombardment of photoshopped perfection in our
world, it should come as no surprise that a large number of people especially
women feel tremendous pressure to meet rigid beauty standards. This invasive
culture of body shaming has its roots in this concern with appearances.
However, it's past time for us to acknowledge how critically important it is to
redefine these norms and build a culture that is more welcoming and inclusive.
The effects of body shaming on people's mental and self-esteem are
severe. In particular, women are frequently hooked in a self-criticism vicious
cycle that is fed by cultural expectations. Constantly examining their body
might cause eating disorders, anxiety, and sadness. It's a brutal fact of life
that needs our attention and help.
Fortunately, there is a growing movement that opposes these
damaging beauty standards and encourages body positivity. It will take a team
effort to redefine beauty standards and end body shaming; these are continual
processes. Through promoting diversity, encouraging mutual support, and
cultivating a self-love mindset, we may establish a community in which each
person is appreciated and views themselves as attractive without modification.
Let's implement this change little by little.
Rab Rakha!!!!!
