paris hilton is fucking hideous. but marilyn monroe...fucking GORGEOUS. which just shows how sad our society has become. society plays off of people's natural insecurity. everyone has SOME little insecurity about themselves. it's human nature. but i think that if the media didn't exist the way it does, we would barely and rarely notice it. society gives us this model we feel like we have to be like. but it's unrealistic, and isn't even all that pretty. it's fake and manmade. but society pushes us to make believe that it's perfect so that we'll buy their stuff. how fucking sick. and i agree about the tans. it's always weird to see people whose skin is WAY darker than their hair in an unnatural way. like, i think my roommate is beautiful and i love her, but she goes to the tanning salon all the time. and she has white blonde hair. and it's like, dude. stop it soon or you'll just be TOO dark. it doesn't fit because it's not the way you're supposed to be. and skin cancer will suck ass. it always makes me sad when my voluptuous friends talk about how fat they are and stuff. because really, you'll only become "fat" if you eat crap and never exercize. but i know people who eat totally right and exercise and they just don't lose weight. but that's just cuz they're not fat. they're exactly the way they're supposed to be, so any efforts to lose weight will be fruitless and altogether unnatural. they're beautiful just the way they are, but they won't listen to me. i guess cuz i'm skinny. but that's the way i'm supposed to be too. but, like you said, there's pros and cons to every body type. i will never have a butt. which i honestly wouldn't care about if it didn't make finding pants fucking impossible, unless i splurge for the overpriced designer jeans that are made for people who lack butts. but since i'm broke off my ass, that just won't happen. nor will i ever have large breasts. conversely, "voluptuous" people have gorgeous butts and breasts. definitely not something to be ashamed of. there are so many girls who are heavier, but fucking hot as all hell. you just have to know how to work what you got. at the same time, if you're skinny and have small boobs and no butt, it's nothing to be ashamed of either. that's the way you're supposed to be. if you had those boobs and that butt, you'd be so out of proportion and miserable. myself, i'm pretty much like that. i'm just petite and i will never not be petite unless i were to eat INTENSE amounts of crap and not move around at all. that's just the way i am. and no, i'm not "perfect" or anything. but nobody is so screw it. yes i have my insecurities. yes, i would have liked to hear my boyfriend tell me that he thinks i'm pretty once in a while. but overall, when i look in the mirror, i like what i see. and that's all that it's about.
also, when you do that mirror thing, smile. don't just stare at yourself and frown. fucking. smile. cuz that's when the inner beauty comes out. and just think to yourself "i'm fucking beautiful." cuz you fucking are.
man, i need to exercise. i used to go to curves, and whenever i'd mention it, everyone would be like "why are you going there?? you're so skinny." and it would piss me off cuz they acted like losing weight is the only reason to exercise, ignoring the fact that sitting around all day is bad for your heart. i should just join curves again. if i had the money.
ok, i'm done. sorry for the rant. i should just use this as my brainstorm for my critical thinking essay on body image.
ahh curves! the guy who founded/runs it is this psycho anti-abortion nazi or something, who gives the money to crazy organizations. they wanted to open one in tiburon and my mom and a bunch of other women went and held a demonstration in protest...but i don't think it worked. anyway.
