Why can't everyone be happy with themselves

Because the fashion industry markets a degree of physical perfection, that ultimately doesn’t exist. And since people are so easily influenced by what they see on TV… well… you know…

I know, but some time in someones life should be told that they’re beautiful, and tbh (to the person above) I don’t know how anyone could say that to you, becuase your so pretty, so thoose people are jelous. It’s quite clear that they’re jelous.

Well, I want to change this, because it’s something that really annoys me, and diets should be banned,

Thats why I hate telly, I totally agree,

I don’t know if you watched ugly betty, but the first oneish was about ‘average girl’ and the girls at school saying like omg, I want to be so skinny, it’s awful because whats the point in wearing clothes if your a skeleton, People need to realise that they’re bloody stunning no matter what size they are,

And yeah beauty is all to do with make up, you dont really see naturely skinny people. :(

Because the media bombards us with ridiculous standards for beauty (which the models themselves often cant achieve, that’s mostly makeup!).

Watch the ads in an hour. Half if not more will be about weight loss. If you’re constantly being told you need to be thinner to be pretty…

I totally understand where your coming from. but I myself believe that I am unattractive. the reason for this is because I’ve been told this all my life. people have so many reasons to put theirselves down.

but I know many who just do it for the attention.

the only problem is we cant change what others think of thierselves.. only they can.

and I guess some people have a little ocnfidence and some have lots and I dont actually know what determins a persons level of confidence, but I certainly know that can be changed.

I guess encouraging people with little confidence to do something they wouldnt usually do is one step. thats what helped me.

but unfortunatly, this matter will never be resolved. :/

Awww, Well I just try, at school I’m like the happy one, I always try and cheer people up. I get really depressed in the winter and feel like proper bad, but in the summer I’m like always happy, but people should think happily x
