Body Dysmorphic Disorder

I don't have this to the degree that these people do, but I've always thought that I was quite ugly.

Curves are Great, But...

I am a curvy woman myself--voloptuous even. But I have a few issues with this.

I am against the use of only extremely skinny women as models. This promotes eating disorders and even mid-weight women are decried as being "fat." Hell, I got called "fat" when I weighed only 112 pounds because of the fact that I tend to have more in the caboose. This hating of larger body types is stupid.

HOWEVER...

It is equally damaging to hate on thin bodies.

And the woman in the above picture illustrates another damaging stereotype.

That would be the small breasts are unattractive stereotype. Which causes women who have perfectly acceptable bodies to alter them so they can have extremely large breasts.

If those breasts are real, I'm the Prince of Persia.

How about instead of hating on a certain body type, we learn to be nicer to each other?

People are attracted to what they're attracted to--fine and dandy.

But hate is never a good look.

By the way, I don't hate the model for having breast enhancements. However, I'm certain that she looked just fine without them and it's a shame that she felt the need to do something of this nature to her body.
