Turn off the tv, read a book instead of a gossip magazine, get out in your community instead of sitting in front of the computer all day...even if I do want people to read my blog..:) Go outside and enjoy life, now!..lol<BR/><BR/>And thank you for the compliment..much appreciated.<BR/><BR/>Best Wishes,<BR/>LisaLisa McGlaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05586141320197189197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-75312430101283254382007-12-14T11:27:00.000-08:002007-12-14T11:27:00.000-08:00Peter,You are right but the issue is so complicate...Peter,<BR/><BR/>You are right but the issue is so complicated. The media is just one spoke in the wheel. They can certainly do better. Stop the ads that use sex to sell products to a young consumer. Stop photoshopping ads and celebrity photos, making girls reach for an ideal that does not exist in nature. That would be a good start.<BR/><BR/>Of course, parents need to counteract the message our kids receive. Turn off the tv, talk, model the examples we want them to follow. That would help also.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your input on this important issue that affects all of us, male and female.<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/>LisaLisa McGlaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05586141320197189197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-87010317065455988662007-12-14T11:24:00.000-08:002007-12-14T11:24:00.000-08:00Toadee,I'm impressed too.

I applaud them for executing so well. It seems they are sincere in their intentions. <BR/><BR/>I agree partly with Peter on the blaming the media, but in reality I place much of the blame on consumers of media. Unfortunately, people have been trained to think of the media as "the way it is" with no other alternative. I say turn off the television and read this blog instead. :Dpeteejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06918455401891853302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-49232619041386894052007-12-13T17:04:00.000-08:002007-12-13T17:04:00.000-08:00Hi!

To be blunt, I blame the media for the difficulties being faced by all women, especially impressionable young girls in regards to body image issues.<BR/><BR/>I realise some have recognised this fact and are changing tact. They are to be congratulated.<BR/><BR/>In relation to the young girls, I can't help thinking that in their race to be look and act much older, they are be leaving themselves open to pressures and issues that even much older persons have trouble handling. It's no wonder they can't cope.<BR/><BR/>The only hope for these girls is for the entire media industry to get on board and correct what they have done.<BR/><BR/>Regards from a mere male!<BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12097919387041286154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-28069704072634398372007-12-13T16:16:00.000-08:002007-12-13T16:16:00.000-08:00I have been extremely impressed by Dove's campaign...I have been extremely impressed by Dove's campaign to value real women, what a breath of fresh air.Toadeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16217335281091498806noreply@blogger.com
