I know – I would have been saved a TON of grief if I saw this stuff 20 years ago – geeze! I would love this to get passed around – not because I wrote it, but so as many women / girls as possible will see it and have a light bulb go off!!

Thanks for the comment you !! xoxo

This is an amazing compilation of all the latest on body image and it’s ever present distortion in the media, LeeAnne. Too bad the real story took so long to surface and so many of us have spent our entire lives feeling inadequate. Bravo for posting!

Awesome post LeeAnne! I love that you focus on how change coming from within. It’s not about the image, or the media… really. It’s about how we individually allow the image or whatever to make us feel. We each have the choice to let it bother us or not, to pay attention, or not. As more strong, confident women stand up and say, “Hey my boobs are small, and damn it, I LOVE them… and I love my thighs, and that little mole on my cheek (etc etc)…!!” then more and more women and girls will start noticing the things about their body, that are a part of who they are, that they love too.

Have you seen Elizabeth Berkley’s site http://www.ask-elizabeth.com? Pretty cool.
