"I have an ‘Ask’ box on my Tumblr and get a lot of messages from teenage girls who say things like, ‘I have big legs, I always thought I was fat and I see you now and it makes me feel confident,’ or ‘I never wore crop tops until I saw you wear one!’ They’re like me—a little tomboy-ish and into hip-hop, but from all walks of life. A lot of young Latina girls feel alienated, or like they don’t fit into a certain category or the societal flow of how things are supposed to be. But that’s not reality!" - Writer & waitress @palomija via @intothegloss #latitude22 #latinas #latinx #attitude #beautyqueen #fila #newyork #cool #dope
