It's funny how even in the comment section a lot of people seem to just discriminate against each other based off of their respective, assumed weight.
In my view the very important message isn't "now it's time to hate skinny", it's "accept the fact that there is a huge amount of different body types".
Not everbody can be thin and lean, and we should aspire to be healthy, rather than to achieve just another for most people unattainable ideal.
Who the hell wants to be so skinny that your bones and spine sticks out? its just gross, you need some meat on your bones. Its true, you want to be thin, but NOT too thin. Its better if your just healthy thin and toned, not anorexic thin. Thats where these young girls dreams should be at, not on Belumia. I'm so glad this director did this film, its really going to help people out there, and it was a really really good documentary, i recommend to watch this 100%. Just love yourself<3
@chickennuggets1547 And you don't have to be fat to be against the rise of people wanting ultra skinny girls. That lady with black hair bob is the writer of the Vagina Monologue's. She's a feminist icon. She's not fat.
This seem like a good, but I people should check out this blog that some person wrote called America the Beautiful: The Diary of a Women's low SELF-ESTEEM. it is pretty good...
What I like about this film is that it seems to teach people to love themselves. The girl who said she felt ugly was actually beautiful w/ her fair skin, pretty feautures, and dark (at least inside, but maybe outside it is lighter) hair.
I'm not attracted to 6 packs because "society tells me I should be" but because they are beautiful. People across the globe throughout the years have been "obsessed" with beauty. Ancient Greek statues of goddesses, geishas painting their faces white, coursettes!...not just USA.
I thought I'd be boring at first but this was AMAZING! I went to a private showing where the director/creater hosted and had a Q&A. Totally worth seeing!
I'm not jewish. Your jealous because she is hot and you're ugly. Get plastic surgery and a new brain. How the fuck does thinking someone is hot make you a racist?
@theSvarg people are overweight from processed foods. american foods aren't natural and something needs to be done about it. a generation ago, american foods were natural, and there wasn't an unhealthy fixation on weight.
processed food isn't only america's problem. everybody knows that food they eat is damaged and unhealthy but they do nothing about it. some psychologists say that people eat because they hate themselves. that would explain many things.
@theSvarg people eat because they're hungry. people eat because they have to live. are you saying it's ok for corporate interests to damage our food? what are people supposed to do? farm?
The black vs white skin is just a cultural thing. In more evolve cultures or countries (open minded if you like) like Sweden a black person will be more desirable than the average white one which is the common rule. So the argument of the white skin as a genetically to tell disease is just one side of the coin. The gens also search for different matches to make the body more resistant to illness, so a white Swedish will be more interested in black person from the genetical points of view.
This movie looks self rightous and a big "Duh" factor too. we already know how bad the industry is, and if you don't this movie is showing you that hey look stupid..pay attention..ok..i guess America does need that...
Thing with the media twisting things is that they're often wrong too. They proclaim this ideal in how women "should" look yet I find most women to be more attractive without make up (because they look more natural) and with a healthy normal body. Yes, I can admit that some models look very sexy and beautiful but yeah, I like natural more and all my friends agree with this, we've discussed this quite a lot.
It's sad that many women believe men only look for models, a lot of us aren't. :)
I made a documentary about the blessings and curses of being a beautiful woman. While the premise of my film was not trying to find a definition of beauty, I accidentally found that our perception of beauty in real life is very different from what is portrayed in the media. That is because I took referrals to determine which women to interview for being "beautiful." They came in different sizes and looks. I did a whole blog about it in my website.
Just saw it today at my university (University of Arizona) and it was a big eye opener. Totally worth it. According to the director, who was there for the Q&A after the screening, the DVD should be out by September since they are only on 2/3 into their tour around the country.
America has created an image of beauty. is it too late to go from that to ugly? I mean it would have to be hard on the big labels when they're competing right?
Upps i came to leave the video responses at 0.16 to go to this .. Please excuse me for a moment ! ..Fit, legs, and (Nicecute)..Ok and HOT!, but where is the free dynamic rock-climbing on US-location video, with fit program ?
We are so excited to see the movie! Will it ever be available in Boston? We added our video on photoshop as a response. It's crazy how many people will try and say this is old news but then why are so many still delusional?
