"The Body"

Posted: Mon, 07/12/2010 - 19:32

How thin is too thin?
How fat is too fat?
Should you stop worrying about the caloric content of your lunch or are you really eating too much?
Does the fashion industry actually affect your body image? Or do you regard those waif-ish gorgeous models simply as canvas for designers?
Do you regard being "curvy" as being voluptuous or fat?

its whatever is both healthy and pretty in your own eyes. people these days are too obsessed with how their bodies look. I'm not saying that if someone wants to diet 'thats totally wrong' and 'they shouldn't think that way.' no! but people should put more stock into what they do than how they look.

I for one, am sick and tired

I for one, am sick and tired of the neverending "skinny vs. curvy debate". This shouldn't be about what people think is pretty or what pleases men; the most important thing should be staying healthy. (If I ever become a designer I want to make sure the models are healthy.)Some people are just SO stupid and assume any girl who's thin/flat MUST have an eating disorder, like it's impossible that they were born that way or have a genetic disorder or something. Like if you're going to be so cruel and condescending to someone just because they're a smaller/flatter size, you shouldn't complain when people call you fat/unhealthy.
