Dove's Beauty Campaign advertisments are sexist. chauvinistic, and totally degrading to women.
What does being half-naked, and/or naked on national television, in magazines, pamplets, and mail in coupons have to do with self esteem and confidence?
Also, Dove's so-called campaign for " real beauty " is mostly ugly. There is nothing healthy about being overweight, fat, and/or obese with cellulite and high percentage of body fat.
Being healthy, excepting yourself for who you are and being happy shouldn't be the grotesque examples Dove has shown.
Being healthy without being too scrawny like the unrealistic examples shown by modelling agencies is being fit by having lean, firm, well-toned, solid healthy muscle tone.
Muscle weighs more than fat however it's much smaller than fat. It's also healthier than fat, although we do need a little fat to function plus some vitamins are fat soluble so we need some fat to absorb them. You'll have problems with too much fat, like those Dove broads.

Do they give us a negative opinion of what women are capable of doing and should look like?

Our apartment got broken into 9/11 of this year. I came home from work during my lunch hour and found our apt a mess from the burglars. My husband & I moved out that day and stayed with his parents until our new house was ready (abt 2 weeks.) I have been having nightmares for abt a month now. The nightmares are always the same. Were moving into a new house and I am there alone unpacking & I have a feeling someone is coming then I wake up. Last night the nightmare got worse. In the nightmare I was kidnapped & had to escape in the dream. I woke up and actually did not want to go to work that day. I thought moving into a new home, the dreams would stop but they haven't. Our new house is closer to our original neighborhood & my inlaws are two doors down but the dream has gotten worse. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions to get these dreams to stop?

I'm not a terribly religious or superstitious person, but I got creeped out by this dream that I just had. In it, I somehow acquired a huge, gaping wound on the left side of my torso. It was actually pretty graphic and disturbing. I'm always very interested in the meanings of dreams. I'm wondering if this holds any significance in dream interpretations?

I HATE my parents, I HATE my "friends", I HATE school, I HATE my life...I've been through too much pain and misery with them to not feel Hatred.Now I hate everybody else; I pretty much HATE everybody in the world with extreme prejudice, regardless of sex,religion,race,etc.There's nothing wrong with that, is there?My hatred is justified because I've been wronged by the people whom I should trust the most...I hate ppl and wish that they would suffer as much as I did and still do.I'm pretty sure that lots of other kids can relate to me. The day I stop hating people is the day that everyone stops treating me like dirt. You'll probably respond with something like, "You're just going through a phase" or "Get over yourself, life isn't that bad" or some other crap...no, if people suck that much right now, I'm pretty sure that people will suck much more once I get to the 'real world'...I dont listen to rock, metal, emo music, I like songs like Phantom, CAMP even happy songs.Yet hate is my life
