Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder....is that still true when everywhere we look there are pictures of thin women, beautiful women.How are we to look to men when we dont look like the cover of vogue or if our bodies aren't as trimmed as those in on the tele?What kind of examples are we setting for younger girls?I mean I was at my friends house and my friends sister *Cloe* was looking at her food funny, I thought she was sick so I felt her head, but she was fine...so I asked her what was wrong and I swear to you this is what she said"I cant eat that....I need to go on a diet" That not only surprised me but it pissed me off...I mean what kind of SEVEN year old thinks that? I talked to her sister and we all had a talk, but gosh if Cloe thought that....it means that the media is not just affecting us women its affect our girls too!Almost everything is FAKE now adays, tummy tucks, lipo, botox....really whatever happend to getting old GRACEFULLY!!Women from the 50's were NATURALLY beautiful! Now that we have all these things trying to make us prettier I mean honestly I think it makes us loook scarier! I mean who wants to have what we call a "trout pout" by the end of so many face lifts! And talk about the dangers! I mean people actually DIE wanting to become prettier! and all those televisions series like nip/tuck, and that one thats really freaking where they make you look like the hollywood star of your choice? (anyone else seen that?!?!)Im just saying that we need to stop and look back on what beauty TRULY is and go back to that cuz imagine everyone with those trout pouts i bet not alot of guys would want to wake up to that......
