Our bodies are sort of like personal billboards.
People see our bodies and are left with an impression.
Sometimes, that's all they get. We constantly rate and judge not only ourselves but others as well. The media hasn't helped any with its bag of techno-tricks that it uses to change photos so that they barely resemble the original subject. The images they force feed us are often unrealistic. But understanding what's wrong with the media's image of beauty and the perfect body is the first step to changing it.
