The media creates insecurities in us. They tell us there's something wrong with the way we walk,the way we talk, the way we wale up looking. They tell us are our noses are too big, our lips too small and are breasts not quite perfect, and we devour this message.We learn that we are not beautiful as ourselves, and your advertisements are spot on. When did we as women become the size of our feet or the color of our hair?Meaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17384112056482549728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285168458292387011.post-16939830202566918982011-03-25T22:45:30.156-04:002011-03-25T22:45:30.156-04:00I agree 100%

Men seemed to be put in the position to judge us and approve of us, while we have for the most part been accommodating, and even in agreement with them. We wear the high heels and the make-up for leverage (I've done it) and we have been expendable and sometimes so nice that we are misunderstood as dumb. I, for one am really tired of it. WE are more than parts. Without women to suffer through child birth men would not be here. They have Mothers and sisters and daughters and need to be chivalrous and respectful to us.Mothers should teach their sons how to treat women and we need to treat each other better. If we all ban together we will be stronger and we will overcome the obstacles put in our way.Melissa Sherbet-Torreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480951299635624419noreply@blogger.com
