What is a sexy size? What is a sexy shape? Who is the population that said size 0 was sexy? I was sitting at a local coffee shop the other day and I was listening to theses young men talk about how hot the waitress was and how they would take her home! Now, was this waitress pretty, yes she was however this is what our men in society are taught to act like when a lady comes into a room. I felt bad for her, I think the idea of someone making comments like that are not good. It is empowering to be pretty and its empowering to have people think you are stunning but to be " pretty to get laid" sucks! I was thinking about what our kids are programed to think is pretty and what we teach our kids how to have relationships with other people. Where I work I see it first hand all the time. Kids have no idea how to have a healthy relationship with each other and think they will grow up and have an even worse time.
Self a steam! why cant girls be princess and boys be princes! we are forced to grow up so fast and not love life and have no worries. This creates eating issue. If one is chubby and picked on, one will get bigger and bigger and eat to self sooth, or they will no eat and have another disorder. Why are we so cruel to each other why do we miss treat our own bodies like this. Why do we allow what others say effect what we do to our selves. I am just as guilty. This week was a very bad week for me, and I faced somethings in my life i never wanted to face, however I took it to the gym, This I have to say is the first time I took my issues to the gym and I went there and beat up weights I went and ran more on the treadmill. I did this instead of eating that box of dounts or binging on bad food. SO I am happy with myself trust me this mama normally would just self sooth with junk food.
We as little princess and little princes need to take some of our power back and stop allowing people to rule what we are doing. It makes me so sad when I see 9 year olds tell me how they need to look like britney spears and how they are getting boob implants! I mean really! 9, 10, 11 at those ages I had barbie dolls and played with my friends and had fun NEVER did I think about boob jobs, or tummy tucks. We have allowed our kids grow up so fast. At my sons school field trip a lil boy had his cell phone, keep in mind my son is 7, and he was looking up things on youtube that 7 year olds should not be looking up. Kids tv now are showing girls how to be sexy at 11 it just flips me out. And we wonder why we have kids hurting themselves at 12 13 14 etc. I wish I could make a program to teach kids about healthy fitness, food and relationships! We can teach them how to say no to drugs but not how to live a positive life! How messed up is our nation!
