Why is it a sin to sometimes feel down about your appearance? As women we are constantly berated in the media with ads to tell us that we are needing this product to make us thinner, younger looking, get rid of cellulite, manage our hair and so on. If we are to be honest as human beings we all take a look in the mirror sometimes and look at something we do not like about ourselves and are frustrated by it. And being women we want to share that feeling with our sisters here to just vent about it and yes even get support and suggestions how to change that feeling. Yet there is sort of an unwritten rule that because this is a site that celebrates fat, that we are not supposed to ever express any feeling that goes against that however fleeting it might be.
In my mind it is the balance of the light and shadow sides of ourselves and the acknowledgement of them and that sharing of insecurities, how we overcame them and even how we are woking on them makes the bonds of sisterhood grow. What is your take?
