WARNING! BIG ANGRY POST! I am extremely angry and upset. Someone I care for had a few run ins this week with some truly horrible people this past week. I know that most people like this have there own self esteem issues. And being bullies. Some quotes from what Her post said: For some reason, in the past week strangers have felt the need to rip into me about it. Some examples include (but are not limited to): Last week, I spent 2 hours getting ready, doing my hair and makeup, finding the perfect balance. I thought I looked ok, then some random guys came up and litterally started pointing out every flaw. They then started asking things like, why such pretty eyes would be wasted on a piece of human garbage, and how I shouldnt be allowed to live. That any girl more than 125lbs should be put down (euthanized). Then today, while having a girls day with my bestie, we were in Forever 21, and the entire time other shoppers were saying essentially the sane thing the guys said last week. Although a one added thatbeast creatures should be kept in cages so they dont destroy the rest of the world. If she wasnt so many states away I would be hugging her as hard as possible. I am at the point of being VERY disappointed in Americans right now. I say Americans because on a whole we are the ones that are the worst at body image especially when it comes to women. The last almost 2 years now I have started working hard at my personal self image. So I just started posting things for my self. Then I found out that others have been reading those things and its helping them as well. So I have started working even harder at watching what I am doing on FB and trying VERY hard to be be a more positive role model. But something like this happening to someone is so horrible, and when you have a weakened self esteem from society as it is this can be utterly damaging. I want to do something constructive with this, but Im not sure how. I want to do something for her yes, but this is actually the 3 person this week I have heard something like this happening in 3 different states. Do you have any thoughts or ideas? I know that many companies are starting movements but what can we as regular people also start doing? Pay-it-forward? Start the concept of Beautiful Hour, where at a special time when everyone can choose a person to tell them that not only they are beautiful but also pick out your 3 favorite aspects of them. Please help me with ideas, and I actually want to work on something for this.
