Womanhood: the Desire to Be "Real"

Stop using the term "real women" to refer to curvy girls. Tall skinny girls aren't imaginary. Regardless of how a girl looks:
All women are real women.

(For now, I'm going to ignore some of the problematic language of this quote and just discuss the themes it addresses.)

The concept of a "real woman" is tangentially relevant to the post I recently wrote about person first language, especially in terms of dehumanization. You might be thinking to yourself, "What about all the women on magazine covers who've had plastic surgery, are covered in make-up, and have been airbrushed as much as possible? Aren't they fake women?"

Person First Language and Dehumanization

If you're not familiar with person first language, it is basically an attempt to speak with a grammatical structure that literally puts the person first. I was first introduced to the idea by a professor of special education in college, so I'm going to give you examples related to that topic. Non-person-first language: autistic child, blind man, downs kids. Person-first language: child with autism, man who is blind, kids who have down syndrome.

What's the difference?
