This is me.
Kidding. This is Kaley Cuoco. Fooled you.
This is me.
I used to be skinny and now I'm not and it stresses me out because my male roommates say that Kaley Cuoco is the hottest piece of shit alive. And everyone else who is famous is thinner than me. And all my friends. And I know that we're not supposed to compare ourselves to famous people and the media is bad because it makes us feel bad about ourselves and our body images and self esteem because we can't compete with the implants and injections and personal trainers of Hollywood. And I'm a sociology student and I've taken classes on this stuff and I know it's impossible to be like these people. But I still feel really bad about myself all the time.
I really do blame it on the media because we're obviously so bombarded with all the skinny bitches. That's not new to anyone, I'm sure. I feel like it's affecting me a lot more lately than it has in the past. Really due to the freshman fifteen I gained three years ago.
The whole concept of taking photos of myself in my bra and panties made me miserable. I actually felt like shit and I still feel like shit. But a little bit empowered because I'm sure a lot of other girls wouldn't have done it at all.
I dare you guys to. do it.
And actually, as I think about it now, I think I look pretty fuckin' hot. But for some reason I am craving celery and water.
How do you guys feel?
You are a brave lady, Corinne. I myself would be terrified to do something like this on the internet due to fear of judgment and spreading around of it and all. I agree that the media totally warps our body image and ties our self esteem intricately to it. I'm about as heavy as I've ever been again right now and it's totally putting a damper on my self esteem right now, and my desire to get thin again is definitely more about looking hot than worrying for my health. Because I'm definitely pretty healthy at this weight, too. It's all vanity and insecurity. Sucks.
ReplyDeleteCorinne you brave gal!!! I could never imagine putting something like this on the internet. However, I like how you contrasted yourself with Kaley Couco. It's crazy what we think we have to look like, and when really celebrities just lucked out in the gene pools, starve themselves and have the benefits of photoshop and airbrushing. I also think it's kinda funny the quote they have attached to her picture is about rescue dogs, why is she posing in a black bikini if really she is discussing dogs?
ReplyDeleteyou're hot as shit, corinne! and while i know it's really hard to remember that sometimes i think it's really important to try. it's the coolest that you've put these up here.
