Thank you for sharing this!!
I wrote a post over a half a year ago about my struggles with anorexia and not to say images like this cause it, but it sure as hell can give many with eating disorders more reasons to feel inadequate. This really was great <3

I am glad you enjoyed this @kristyyd thanks for sharing you personal struggle here.

I have personally seen many friends struggle and have destroyed their lives living up to the Entertainment Industry standards.

I do not approve of this kind of manipulation.

Be well and much success in what ever you do!

reasons to feel inadequate

...not to mention insensitive family/friends/relatives who make a mountain out of a molehill over a few extra pounds...

Prayers that you're better!!!!

Peace.

After watching, I just wanna kill myself all over again.

Yeah,you can do anything with photoshop!

Indeed!
thanks for your reply.

I would back this rule any day of the week. So surprising to see this image change drastically and with such ease. Thanks for sharing the info.

Hello,
It's amazing how society is so Manipulated.

That's why there's a lot of girls with anorexia and bulimia, just trying to see themself like this fake barbies, something that doesn't exists!!

Exactly my friend!
I was at first going to name this post "Barbie is a Fake"
ty for replying

Wow. Thank your posting this. I knew manipulation and enhancement was taking place. However, I had no idea to THAT extent. They are promoting an idea of "beauty" that is not even real. People are pursing a lie and a false image. This pursuit will prevent people from enjoying what is right in front of them and real.

Your reply is of much wisdom and awareness.
Thank you!

Loved the video and it was very revealing what people get up to when manipulating images to 'enhance' beauty etc. It's just I feel you're being more a than a little disingenuous with the claim I quote if you're lumping all media sources together (if that's your intention). Fashion magazines are not going to sell many copies if they post pictures of ugly people. We know that. Hence, it's understandable that they take the opposite tack and make pretty women as beautiful as they can.

Women have been wearing make-up for a fair few years now.

If the quote's meant to apply to all media in general, then it comes across as more than a little Trumpian. Ie. embarrassingly / shamefully dishonest. And we all know he can hardly tell the truth ever, don't we?

I appreciate all perspectives others have but my perspective is FAR from "enhance" make-up? sure but photo-shopping? complete LIE and Manipulation of Truth.

To bring Trump into this shows ignorance.... go back to sleep SHEEP.

Ah, so you ARE a trumpette?

Sweet. :D

So what exactly are you?

A billionaire tax dodger? ("Yeah, right!" ;) )
A humble racist bigot?
A small-minded homophobe?
A misogynist (woman-hater)?
A mindless moron who doesn't know his arse from his elbow but still feels the need to post shite on social media?

A bit of a mixed-bag?

Or are you just really into make-up? ;) ;) ;)
