Re: Body image and the media

The media really gives you this idea that you have to be perfect. And I personally think that if the standards for singers and celebrities were as high as they are now back then, then many of the artists that we love wouldn't be famous, which is quite sad. I'm not really for the "perfect" body image, but it's right to take care of yourself and keep yourself in shape. It's not right for someone to be 500 pounds. Not because it's unpleasant to look at, but because it's unhealthy for that person. I don't judge, because I had a traumatic housefire a few years back and that led me to begin eating a lot and I gained a bit of weight back then and it doesn't feel all too well to be on the other side of judgment. And you really shouldn't judge people by their appearances. All of my friends are ugly, but they are the coolest people you'll probably ever meet. So really, it's not great to judge someone's appearance.
