Supply and Demand


Facts from the video:

  • 81% of 10 year olds are afraid of being fat
  • Of American girls who read magazines
    • 69% say the images influence their concepts of the ideal body shape
    • 49% say the pictures make them want to lose weight
  • 1/3 of non-overweight girls report dieting
  • 70% of people believe the advertisers and media should use more average sizes

If 70% of people believe advertisers and media should use average sizes, why aren’t we seeing a much bigger change in society?  Now that we mostly agree, we need to STOP BUYING INTO THE FAD! Supply and demand!  
Google search beauty.  This is what you will see:


We need to take over what is being supplied! Don't support magazines, television, websites that promote fake, unrealistic beauty.

The Standard of Beauty


Have you seen this video?


I showed this to a few of my guy friends a few weeks ago, and they were confused.  I guess they did not realize that there is not a single woman in the world who looks like the women they gawk at in magazines, posters, etc.  It is actually quite sad how airbrushing has taken over, giving women low self-esteem while telling our men that women aren't perfect unless they look "unreal."  Why can't we take back our media?  We can start a movement! Be proud of yourself; love who you are; show yourself off!  Show the world that
skinny and perfect IS NOT beautiful! 

"Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybelline."??
