Body Shop Clothing

Women's clothing has changed dramatically over the centuries. Women used to wear dresses and skirts all of the time. It has been a fairly recent phenomenon, since around the turn of the twentieth century, that women began wearing pants. Women were always taught to be lady-like and they always dressed in modest clothing. Women never used to show cleavage or wear tight pants. The way women dress today is a reflection of the feminist movement and desensitization of our current society. People will see a woman in a mini skirt and tight pants underneath and her cleavage hanging out and think it is normal. People think this is healthy and a revolution in women's clothing compared to how women used to dress. But perhaps the woman's body is something to be cherished and not exposed.

In the Victorian times women wore big hoop skirts and a lot of undergarments. They were always covered from head to toe. Clothing for women before the Victorian times was also very modest attire. If you took a look at women's clothing from around the world, many women would be wearing fairly modest attire which was basically long skirts and dresses. There are and were the exceptions of different cultures which don't view clothing as a daily necessity, or rather wear very little of it.

Until the WNBA came along, Athletic modesty was cruelly dictated for XLT Women's Sizes. The Sports and Fitness Industry continue to resist heavyweight resistance exercise (strength) training for women, and still maintain an unwritten rule for size acceptance: particularly for wide-fitting 1x-6x women, women over 40, large and tall women.

Too many bigger people, male and female, have only modest confidence in their athletic abilities. The feeling is, why spend money on equipment if you are made to feel you could never master certain athletic skills because you are too thick, too old, too heavy, or look too ridiculous or way too imposing trying to do it?

The posters on the walls of most health clubs or, the images in advertising of slenderized 19 year olds skiing or mountain-biking with wild abandoned, have no meaning for any woman with limited athletic experiences or who may be discouraged about the ongoing bias and misconceptions of strong women and large women.

Inactive or not, you want an environment in a health club that provides an ongoing learning experience and lifts your self-confidence: as YOUR "Lifting Confidence" improves! The financial investment would be very worthwhile, if and when there's a lot of personal attention and support. Unfortunately, most folks don't get that once they've enrolled in a membership and all too often, it's not a very welcoming experience, either.
