Real Woman, Real Beauty: Why Our Flaws Are Beautiful

"My butt can stop traffic."

"My butt can stop traffic."
-- Dawn Denise, 31

"When I hit puberty, my butt developed more than the rest of me. Clothes didn't fit properly and people would comment on my rear, so I started to wear long coats to cover myself. Today, though, I realize that my butt has a gravitational force all its own: It stops guys in their tracks, who have nothing but admiring things to say about it. I've accepted that this is my shape. My butt is here to stay, and I'm not afraid to let the world see it!"
