Self image

I have recently noticed how terrible teen girls self esteem's are. It is terrible to hear and see how the majority of girls think are bodies are disgusting. Wherever I go: school, shopping etc. I constantly hear young girls calling themselves fat and ugly and many other diminishing terms that lower themselves. We need to all desprately need to realize that the girls and gorgeous skinny models we see literally EVERYWHERE is a fake portrayal of beauty. Every model in a magazine has gone through extensive photoshop remake of her face. The initial picture looks nothing like the finished product, they remove any blemish on the face, make the eyes "pop", narrow the cheek bones, add color, add artificial hair, air brush the body, remove any "unattractive fat". These are only some of the processes that a picture goes through to perfect it. Girls need to come to love their bodies and not constantly surround themselves with the skanky magazines. They make us girls dislike all the things about our bodies that we can't perfect like the computers can.

The best solution to creating a positive self image is to STOP constantly surrounding yourself with the twisted image of beauty we see in the media and realize you are beautiful. This is a hard thing to do but when you succeed it can very well change your life.

Also, we need to stop putting ourselves down. If we stop saying were ugly (which is not true:) and stop dwelling on so called "negative" features then we will be at peace with our bodies and our lives.
