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!"

newwavefeminism: Counterproductive Picture of the week: Can we stop and look at this for a second. At first i was glad that, even though she’s way overexposed for someone who’s just famous for being famous, Heidi is talking about how plastic surgery is NOT worth is and is stupid and you should really just leave you face the way it is. But then i look at the corner, and what do i see? some no-name Kardashian reminding us to worry about our weight during the holidays with her “how i stay thin” bullshit. I wonder what the secret is? I make weight loss and eating one of the most important issues in my life and only focus on that instead of focusing on accepting my body the way it is and being happy? Probably something along the lines…
