Question:
Sure, it's been an issue for awhile. People get upset because there are so many skinny models in magazines across the globe, and this could send a negative messege towards women, suggesting to them that this is the only way to look beautiful. What do you guys think of this issue? Do you agree that it is hurtful and lowers self esteem to girls of the world, or nothing to rave about?

Choices:
Talk about lowering self esteem! Since when do models all have to be extremley skinny?
I wouldn't complain, although it is still an issue there are many different shapes and sizes now of models worldwide.
Don't blame the media. We should go deeper then that. Girls that are getting these feelings when looking through magazines or watching T.V., may not have the support they need to maintain a balanced love of self in their everyday lives.
