Our depiction and definition of "beauty" has morphed into what the media tells us it is. Every day, we are bombarded with images of unrealistically skinny girls and muscular guys that shape our idea of what beauty is. What is beauty really? Is it flawlessly smooth skin without a single imperfection? Is it not having an ounce of fat on your body? Is it long legs? Is it big boobs? Is it beefy and built arms and chests? We need to make a stand and accept ourselves for who we are. No one is perfect, nor will anyone ever be.
Below is a video from Dove’s self-esteem fund; one company that is leading the fight against body image and the media. It portrays how many images, videos, and advertisements are seen every day by young men and women. Take a look!
