9 More Effective Uses of Paper Than The A4 Waist Challenge

by N/A, 7 years ago | 2 min read

We live in a world where things like thigh gaps and waist trainers get hashtags and praise on social media. In today's news of dumb ways to body shame each other, the A4 Waist Challenge is now a thing. This challenge suggests women take photos of themselves with a piece of A4 printer paper in front of their waists. The width of an A4 paper is eight inches, and apparently women are trying to prove that their waistlines are narrower than that.

The A4 waist challenge started in China around February. Since then many others around the world are following suit and comparing themselves to this impossible, ridiculous beauty standard.

How about we save the shaming and make use of that pretty piece of paper some other way? Here are a few suggestions.

Give yourself a round of applause.

If you're not buying into these senseless, obscure beauty standards give yourself an Oscar-winning-Leo round of applause. Just because we aren't all the same size doesn't mean we are worth any less!
