OMG!!! LET ME GET ON MY SOAPBOX!!!!
The world has this idea of what BEAUTY is that is SOO
WRONG!!! The media shows young girls these perfect images of women and how
women should look, dress, smell, sound like etc etc. IT IS SO TWISTED!!! All of
Hollywood is AIRBRUSHED and our poor children are growing up thinking that is
how they need to look!!!
As a parent you can try and try and try to raise your kids
with great self confidence, and remind them it isn’t what is on the outside it
is what we have on the inside that counts and that works...for a while! Then
they get into their puberty phase and it all changes. Magazines, TV, EVERYTHING
shows a FALSE image and this, THIS is what they cling too! So sad!
When I hear my daughter say she is fat and she is all of a
size 2 in juniors it makes me ill. She thinks she is fat just because the skin
on her legs flatten out when she sits. UM everyone’s legs do that honey!
It is crazy, crazy, crazy! I could go on but I won’t I will
leave it at that! :)
Society once found curvy figures like Marilyn Monroe sexy! Then somehow it flipped to Curvy is nasty and Skinny is sexy! What is that?
ReplyDeleteWay back in time, if you were thin you were brushed aside as a poor beggar in society and if you were "fat" you were a higher class in society and often wealthy.
It ticks me off that places like Victoria's Secret won't even make underwear for people of a REAL size. The biggest they go is Large. No one really caters to a "Moms body" either!
