The Campaign for Real Beauty

Timberlea, NS(Zone 6a)

I thought perhaps this would be a good place to post this link, because I think that self-image (positive or negative) really has an effect on a person's health.

The website and ad campaign (for those of you who haven't seen it) are an attempt to re-define what have become the "standards" of female beauty (which seem to be that you should be as skinny and flat-butted as a 12 year old boy, but with big boobs! Oh, and you shouldn't look older than 21! OK, I'm exaggerating. A little! ; ))

The photography exhibit is really inspiring (although it DOES contain some nudity, so be warned of that if you're uncomfortable with those images.)

You can check it out here:

What do you all think/feel about this?
