Models.

Between 17 and 20, I was 173 cm and 58kg, with a BMI that hovered around 19. And it was just genetic luck. I ate anything I wanted, loved to play sport, never thought about it much and for most women that's like the genetic lottery.

I catwalked for about three months. Then got told if I wanted to go overseas I'd have to have cosmetic surgery and lose 5 kg.

I wasn't pretty enough or skinny enough for big money modeling, but other women were always a bit mean and made comments about needing breath mints for vomiting or deliberately not including me in group lunches because I "clearly never ate anything".

These days I have to do about 18 hours of heavy work outs and eat no more than 950 calories a day to maintain 85kg.

I can't do it, so I'm at 92.

And now I get people telling me I'm lazy and fat.

No matter how I am, I'm not right. So screw it... I feel ugly no matter what, so why care at all when there are so many other things I have going for me?

I feel pity for any model, and those who feel physically inferior to them.

Laurel, those pictures show my relationship with makeup...while in the theater I learned how to use it and apply it and I didn't like how I didn't look like me anymore. I also didn't like that people treated me differently while wearing it.

But I also get how it's an expression for so many people who don't mind looking differently from how they naturally look or want to. Oddly enough I find myself watching RuPaul's Drag Race and appreciating the fun of putting on makeup again because if the dudes can do it and have fun, it seems more like I'm in solidarity with drag queens.

I adore makeup.

You're making ART. ON YOUR FACE.

How fucking cool is that?! :D

It's easy enough for me to say it to you but find your happy place. I bet you aren't ugly and you are right to focus on the good things going for you.

Some women can be bitchy and seem to revel in knocking others. I have no idea why some women are like that and I have always assumed they are insecure.

Don't let the biatches take your happy face away. :)

"Elle Magazine Suffers Backlash For Melissa McCarthy’s Covered-Up Cover Shot"

I thought the poll was quite telling.

Telling a 6'1" tall girl who weighs in at 50kg that she needs to lose at least 8kg to even have a shot at a modelling career is wrong.
This was yet another case reported just last night.... one of a long line of such reports.

"Your Body Mass Index (BMI) is 14.3. This means your weight is within the Underweight range.

Your current BMI is lower than the recommended range of 18.5 to 24.9.
To be within the right range for your height, you should weigh between 144 lbs / 65.2 kg and 194 lbs / 87.9 kg"

At six feet tall and 130 pounds soaking wet, I was considered for plus size modeling. :rolleyes: I was too heavy for anything else according to the professionals.

These "plus size" models aren't really plus size, at all. Plus sizes start, on average, at a size 12/14. They're simply plus size compared to a regular model. Either way, I consider these women brave and hopefully, future trendsetters. It's cool to eat. It's cool to have meat on your ass, hips and thighs, and it's cool to feel rad in your own skin, no matter what anyone else thinks.

Yes! It's fun!

One of my aunts had a very prominent nose - exceptionally so, even in a family known for sharp honkers. She eventually got up the courage and had her nose done. She was a really strong, charismatic woman who had been bothered by that particular feature, so resolving that really made her happy. But for months, all I heard from the rest of the family was gossipy yammering about how horrible is was that she'd done that, how she'd "built her personality around her nose" and without the nose she basically - I dunno what their point was. Fixing her nose made her a worse person, I guess. It makes no sense now, but I was in my mid-teens at the time and took it all as truth.

Years later, I thought about it and realized how stupid my family had been. On the one hand, they were always saying how it's not what's outside but what's inside that counts. On the other hand, people (women, particularly) who had nose jobs or did crazy things with their hair or even wore "too much" make-up were suddenly worse people for having done so.

But if it's what's inside us that counts, then changing our outsides shouldn't matter, right? Are we or are we not the same people whether we're blonde or brunette or pink-haired, tattooed or unadorned, crooked- or straight-nosed?

So, why shouldn't we have fun with our exteriors? Why can't we color our hair and get augmented and tattooed and pierced if it's fun for us, if it makes us happy? And why shouldn't we go without makeup if that's what makes us happy? Why should what we choose to do to our bodies - so long as it's what we genuinely enjoy doing, and so long as it's not actually destructive (like chopping off limbs and such) - decide whether we are "good" or "bad" people?

True, you shouldn't try to change your exteriors to please other people. You shouldn't do anything strictly to please other people - because other people can never be fully pleased and you'll end up miserable and resentful.

And true, people perceive us completely differently when we change our appearance. I find that kind of fun, though. It's like changing costumes. You can wear a short skirt and loud lipstick and be all vampy, then wear jeans and tees and mellow makeup and blend into the background. Being a girl can be a lot of fun. I only wish I'd figured this out when I was younger, but better late than never. :D
 
I have tattoos. My Grandfather was horrified.

I consider them body art and my skin is a canvas.

Most of them have some sort of meaning to me. :)


I don't wear make up either. I did as a teenager but my skin didn't like it all. I would put mascara on and my eyes would go all red and swell up. I laughed but it looked weird.

When I was a teenager I wanted straight hair and wouldn't eat crusts because my Nana told me my hair would get curly.:D

Years later I get compliments asking me where I get my hair permed. It's lovely to be ok about who you are. Being comfortable in your own skin can be a journey for some. I'm not perfect and there is always room for improvement.

My sister is a bit small in the boobies and reckons I got her share. She thinks it is so funny.

I tell her she gets to wear the pretty bras while I used to have to go from shop to shop in the hope they had my size. Nowadays the choice is so much better. :)

In Summer I'd love to wear no bra. Or even a lovely sports bra. I could tuck my boobs under my arms but I have short arms. :D

Face it - most people think they have something they don't like about themselves.

And we should be embracing who we are and how lucky we are. :)

Interesting article.

http://www.glamour.com/health-fitness/2012/02/retouching-how-much-is-too-much

"Body-image experts aren’t any keener on over-retouching, no matter who does it. “Study after study has shown that when we see perfected, altered images, it leads to anxiety and low self-esteem and can even play a role in the development of eating disorders,” says Kearney-Cooke. “It sets up an unrealistic beauty ideal and creates this feeling of ‘I’m not good enough."

Nipples are sooo much prettier than bras. :)
 


a/k/a cheating.


Plus there's goddamn cosmetic surgery (which is, of course, just another form of cheating).

So the only way women are "allowed" to be pretty is if they're born with perfect skin and features?
 
maybe you don't need to be born or made perfect to be pretty. you watch vintage porn? pre-photoshop, pre-cosmetic surgery, society's ideas of who passed as beautiful were... 'lower' isn't the right word. perhaps just more realistic.

Sure, and those are beautiful women. But that's not the only kind of beauty in the world.

What about Black or Asian women who want to dye their hair blonde? Are they not allowed to have any color of hair other than what they're born with?
