BODY IMAGE & CONFIDENCE
ALL ABOUT YOU!
Well the body is a beautiful thing and much has be done to show woman have to conform to
a certain shape. This is especially true in the media , fashion and almost everywhere one goes.
So I like some women wonder , Why is it so wrong to be more fuller or curvier ?
The fact is most people are not a standard size and it is not only women.
I can recall being in a supermarket lineup and seeing the magazine racks filled with images of
women in swimsuits or the heading ; Improve your butt, shrink your waist lose weight... etc.
Meanwhile a mans magazine had a image of 6 BIG men in plaid shirts and hats, for a sport magazine. NO headline, IMPROVE YOUR STOMACH MUSCLES or look good in plaid shirts.
Nothing to say they are not good looking or not sexy .
Well that being said, I recently watched a super documentary about body images It is a Australian made and features women from around the world, of all sizes, shapes, cultures . It is called EMBRACE. Truly a excellent film to see.
After all it was International Womens day and this film is really an important view
on how society has made women of size feel ashamed of their bodies and the changes that are happening.
So I hope you check out this amazing film .
