If You're Not Angry, You're Not Paying Attention

This is a blog about the ever-elusive idea of beauty that has fascinated me since I was old enough to be aware of the expectations placed on my body.

If you scroll back to the beginning you'll notice that I started this blog as a response to the bullshit photoshopped images of "beauty" that are circulated for the public's consumption. However, after I picked at that thread, the whole thing unravelled and from it came so many other questions and issues that needed to be addressed.

Stand up and join this bitch march if you're sick of seeing already beautiful people massacred and trotted out in an ever-growing beauty pagent, set to a death march that claims millions in eating- disordered deaths, suicides, and self-hatred because no magazine comes with the warning:

"ATTENTION consumers, images may be rendered unrecognizable and thereby do not imply that you should ever attempt to become what you see!"

“ When I was 10 Jane Fonda’s workout tape was all the rage and I had it. I was a skinny and athletic kid and my dad saw me doing these exercises to the tape and said, hold on a second…you dont think you’re fat do you? I said, no I’m just exercising (I really didnt think I was fat). He said, good, because you’re not - it is important to exercise and be healthy but it is just as important to be realistic about whether or not you are fat. I always remembered that.

We need more dads and men who encourage this kind of thinking in girls and women.
