This discussion has probably been overdone a lot, but I'd like to start a new one anyway. I'm 21, I've always been curvy, I don't eat particularly unhealthy (in fact my heart belongs to salads), and I exercise everyday. However, the minute someone sees me I can tell that for the most part they judge me as a stereotypical overweight person. This stereotype with generously proportioned women (or people in general!) has got to stop! Just because I'm not a size 0, or I might not be able to run a marathon, doesn't mean I'm a waste of space. Everyone is beautiful regardless of their shape, size, gender, race, or religion in their own right. The media has it all wrong!!!!

YEAH! I've had way to many criticisms about how my body is and how i dress and stuff. Media is evil in every way shape and form. People who conform the the media are in serious trouble for their future.

Yes that is true we are all beautiful. It is not waht we look like on the outside it is what we look like on the inside. If you stereotype someone casue of waht you see then you are missing out on a lot of good friends that you could have. I don't care what other people look like. I am friends with people because of what they have to say and how they treat me and all my friends are beautful.
