And the "plus size" models?They are so damn beautiful!sweta1990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420172349572627473.post-84569079728146784432011-06-27T20:33:06.798-05:002011-06-27T20:33:06.798-05:00Well I am a thin girl in a fat girls body.

Being a father of teena...I couldn't agree more. Being a father of teenage girls I hear it all the time. The kids pick on my 13 year old saying she has fat thighs. Mind you she is an athlete and does a lot of running. I just keep telling her to not listen to them. No body is perfect and those "fat" thighs are muscle. It's these years that are the hardest and feel that is where all the body image issues come from. It's great to see you point that out as a focal point for you. Needless to say the girls will have to read this!!James Anusevitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09537714873386802906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420172349572627473.post-21327336748048700052011-06-26T19:57:12.614-05:002011-06-26T19:57:12.614-05:00Great and much needed post!

This generation of girls is being raised by mothers that have been judged, tormented, and constantly reminded that looks, and weight in particular, are the most important and defining quality that they have. I was a bigger girl, not really fat but bigger by comparison when I was pre-teen and that judgement never leaves. Now I am what most would consider a "thin" person but I still feel like the fat girl more often than not. I try like crazy to not pass my mania onto my daughter, the last thing I want is for her to feel like love is conditional on her looks by me or anyone else. I try to just keep us both on a healthy lifestyle track and stay active so she can learn good habits and avoid being in the situation I was in... but I still hope that she doesn't get the treatment I did for not looking perfect.Random Girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420172349572627473.post-21308666155490044052011-06-26T12:26:41.326-05:002011-06-26T12:26:41.326-05:00I would LOVE to look like any one of them.

But, I am me....and that is ok too. <br />They absolutely should just be running around being kids, but media, and peers don't let that happen anymore. Its sickening! I hope that if enough people read articles like this one that the attitude will eventually change...or at the very least the girls on the teasing end will realize that it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. :)<br />Thanks!

So is my 9 year old daughter. It breaks my heart that they are worrying about something like that at their age. They should be out running around and playing and having fun, not worried about "working out so that we don't get fat". I mean really, what the hell? <br /><br />It drives me insane. And like Christi said, I would love to look like the plus-sized models that you found. They look amazing!<br /><br />Great post!Non-Stop Momhttp://non-stopmom.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420172349572627473.post-82215532146256072272011-06-26T10:30:27.861-05:002011-06-26T10:30:27.861-05:00Even though this a VERY serious topic, the way you...Even though this a VERY serious topic, the way you broke it down was PRICELESS!!

It's one of my biggest worries as a parent of daughters. And the "plus" size models? I would love to be that kind of "plus" size! They're absolutely gorgeous! not to mention healthy!Christihttp://www.mytemperedtantrum.comnoreply@blogger.com
