We& #39;re proud to present this superb takedown of an industry which tells people how they should look & why they should feel shame for not reaching impossible standards. The whole thing is based on lies...From Eleanor Thorndyke& #39;s & #39;There is No Such Thing as a Bad Body& #39;... 1/10
Throughout the crucial development years of my adolescent life and to this day, Iâve had negative thoughts and feelings around my body - this beautiful creation that allows me to be alive and to experience life. Iâm aware of how marketing works... 2/10
I know the body type being sold to me as an aspiration and why.
But growing up in the prime of technology and advertising hasnât been great when dealing with these thoughts and feelings about my body not being enough for me 3/10

But, beauty is whoever you are: Whether your body is slim, curvy or anything at all, itâs beautiful. Itâs so hard to accept that itâs still an issue for mass consumption when everyday we see âInstagram modelsâ face-tuning themselves tiny with unrealistic proportions 4/10
Worryingly, many young people donât understand the concept of Photoshop and think these images are real.
And these pictures are so finely picked out: So much goes into them including posing, lighting and editing 5/10

Its so tiring being constantly bombarded with different forms of media & people telling you how you should look.
So much so that when I stopped my disordered behaviours no-one warned me about the new relationship Iâd have with what I deemed my ânew bodyâ as it changed 7/10

It feels like once you overcome this huge hurdle and relax, the media hits you like a train: It tells you your body isnât worthy enough, that it is too fat or too thin now that youâre back to a healthy mentality 8/10
Everybody is 100% unique, we all have different traits, body types and features that set us aside from everybody else.
