Hello Everyone, so for todays post I'm going to talk about pressure that girls like you and me experience whilst growing up.
Going back 30 40 years girls felt free to be who they were because there was no pressure from media peers or anyone else. They felt free to express their selves. But then everything changed Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook came into prospect and soon there were thousands of images showing perfect girls, girls with no flaws. So people after seeing this expected every girl to be flawless and if they weren't they were nothing.
Girls who don't have perfect legs have fat don't have perfect skin, are not popular or wear the latest designer clothes got looked down upon because they weren't reaching the expectation you had after seeing that picture of that girl on and advert or on Tumblr.
Then people moan on the news about girls who self harm or have committed suicide. People who have probably looked down on someone because of the way they dressed or the amount of piercings they have or weather they had a tattoo or not.
This generation has created insecurity's in girls. Now instead of looking in the mirror and seeing a portrayed version of what you look like you see faults but not how they are at an exaggerated level. and it eats you up until you feel like nothing.
Its time this all changed, its not what you look like or how you speak or do your hair its the person you are and all the AMAZING features you have everyone is perfect in their very own way. So go ahead look in the mirror and tell your self your beautiful because its the truth.
I'm going to leave you with one of my favourite quotes by Audrey Hepthburn ~ Happiest girls are the Prettiest.
Until next time byeee xoxo
