curves as currency in size acceptance

[MissToodles]

Is the term curves being taken back to prove that women aren't coat hanger androgynes or are curves really value?

Why is value placed on one body type or another? Is it really biological or determined by society?

I'm sick of trying to defend my "lack of curves". I don't have the va va voom shape that everyone envies yet women are supposed to be "womanly" and have these things. Does that make me less of a woman or is that how womanhood, especially in size acceptance is defined?

Should we move away from defining ourselves by shape and size? it seems too entrenched with pleasing men, with giving them visual stimulation.
