Skinnies cover every page

Tagged:

Open a magazine, flip page after page and look at each girl, woman pictured and focused on on the page. "She's gained 20 pounds" and some even comment on how some people are TOO skinny. But here's my problem. While one page mentions how disgustingliy skinny one girl may be, the mention how "fabulous" they look on the next page. So what message are we supposed to take from it? Are they too skinny? or do they just look better with a million dollar dress on their skinny little shoulders? What happened to men/boys liking their women/girls with a little meat on their bones, a girl who is comfortable in their own skin, or a girl with some curves. I personally have joined a gym this past month in order to fix up my apperance but that doesnt make me one of these girls OBSSESSED with weight. I'd like to see more average sized women appear on television shows and magazine covers. So how many guys of you encourage girls to be a natural size and not tooth picks? And of those of you who say that you do, how many of you have pictures of these tooth pick celebs on your walls or magazines that you drool over?

The infestation of advertisement with women with perfect bodies doesn't portray a lack of desire of men, but the obsession of perfection and an advertiser's simple drive to appeal.

Besides, I'll take Eva Longoria over Queen Latifah. :)

What really is annoying is when they obsess about how much weight celbrities gained. I really don't care, you know?
