Weighty Issues

I have nothing against Posh Spice, in fact I was a Spice Girl for a talent show in high school, BUT when I read things like this, combined with that frightening photograph, it saddens me. The state of our ideas on attractiveness have hit an all time low in my opinion, especially when women idolize and strive for a skin and bones body type.

Also women, do yourself a favor and get fitted for a bra. Apparently the average American breast is growing and we should take note of this and embrace our bodies and treat them right because they are amazing.

China Daily reports that women order french fries more often than anything else. Obviously this isn't the most scientific study, but quite interesting, especially as compared with the men's choices that the article reveals. Such opposing viewpoints when it comes to body image and food issues. Women are craving to have the body of Victoria Beckham, but are most frequently ordering french fries, burgers, and pizza at restaurants. No wonder there is an amazing spectrum of bodies, especially in the United States; overwhelming rates of eating disorders, yet similar problems with obesity. Hmmm.

And just because China Daily is quite amusing, I was intrigued by the idea of a"Semi-honeyed couple".

Thoughts?
