The other night I was blown away by an ad I saw on t.v. There is so much garbage to wade through normally but this was a breath of fresh air. Who’s ever heard of a company concerned about the negative influence the media has on young girls?
Even though I grew up in a very loving environment I still struggled with body image due to the onslaught of unrealistic expectations conveyed by movies and television. I grieve for the girls who are never told they are loved, who don’t feel beautiful. Who is telling them what beauty is?
You can’t even go through the checkout line today without being bombarded by pictures of “perfect” woman. In a world where celebrities are constantly criticized for having cellulite or even a bad hair day it’s refreshing to know there is a company who sees this as a problem. Kudos to Dove.
