If You Read This, You're Fat!
 

Is the world getting too celeb obsessed? Do you think that it's fine for young people to be idolising 34kg, 5'9" models/celebs?

I think the media is destroying our youth. Opinions?

Well...I think its kind of Gross how skinny people think they need to be, just to be "Perfect"..........i like a girl who isnt all skin and Bones.......But not Fat...Big Butt is always nice:)

In some cases they are skinny, let me tell you...How sick it makes me feel that 9 year kids are going on diets cos...Guess what?! They are using photoshop to make people SLIMMER!! They cut the arm size down, straighten the teeth. It makes me sick that people who have great looks are not seen cos ugly are getting the job and then making life hell for our kids....But other than that I do like looking through mags...Teehee
*cheeky grin*

Yeah, theres some program on that has little 6 year olds buying miniature wedding dresses and Louis Vuitton handbags and all that. Too much money, too much media, too poor a parenting, and it's giving us pre-pubescent madonnas that would have a break down if they lost a nail.

I hate what the media has done. They know they do it too. What can you do though.

Edit: Cool title by the way. Very fitting.

Anorexically (I made this word up, I think) skinny is sexy.

the good; http://www.heatherette.com/FW05/FW_48.jpg

the bad; http://zero.uselessjunk.org/images/s...anorexia_1.jpg

omg that is soo bad..Please take that off! Women with weight on please...*throws up*

*Vomits* and Pops Boner....:rofl:

^ That girl is what we should be aiming for, time to start taking laxatives and sniffing coke.

There's sites on the net that encourage anorexia.It was on 60 minutes the other week:crazy:

I think we all need to weight under 50 pounds to be pretty.

Merkaba, yeah I reckon it made a statement!

Here's a site dedicated to the weight loss of Lindsey Lohan:

http://www.liquidgeneration.com/blog/lohan/blogger.html

Although ever since Lindsey admitted it, the blog had stopped being posted in.

The girl putting make up or what ever on the anorexic chick isn't bad by far :D



Does that go in the order of the pictures? ...gross...

I saw an extremely anorexic woman in town yesterday.
Thinner than that second photo.
She actually looked like she had walked out of a concentration camp so I started welling up.

when i was younger (like 12, 13) i used to read all those teen magazines, that would tell me how to get perfect hair, and what kind of jeans fit my body type. then I grew up, and asked myself, "am I actually reading this mindless drivel?" seriously, do you ever wonder why guys laugh hysterically at girly fashion magazines? because they're pathetic. honestly, you're life is a complete waste if you have nothing better to do with your time than to obsess over a pimple or the fact that your hair doesnt accentuate the shape of your face the way it should. I think the main problem is that our culture in general has become way too self-obsessed. take a minute away from poring over your image in the mirror and spend your time in a more worthwhile way. instead of handing kids that trash they should get into sports, music, charity, anything would be better than conditioning a bunch of clones who think the world revolves around their ability to choose the perfect outifit.

It's articles like "10 ways to tell he fancies you" and "How can I tell if I'm a lesbian?" actually.

^haha, forgot about those, and can't forget the "how to please your man in bed" articles. my guy friends were quite interested to see how to please themselves in bed actually.

They're damn insightful though. I love being told what turns me on, because it's obviously the same for every man. We're all completely the same. Teen mags. They rock.

ok, so not entirely on topic, but whatever. i can easily see this showing up in some mindless fashion or teen magazine. now, i don't know about the rest of the girls on this forum, but the vast majority of this stuff is just plain creepy.

They are pathetic eh, they contridict themselves! First the tell you to be happy with your body, then they show how bad it is that celebs are sticks, THEN they say, oh, here's how to get a flatter stomach and thinner thighs!

Talk about mixed messages, which ones do you reckon little girls will follow? Self improvement or self acceptance?

My new favourite site: www.superficial.com

*Scared for life*

That is such a revolting list. And thats another bad influence, those magazines that tell you how to dress and what not, forgetting to mention you're making your parents broke in the process of demanding $300 high heels because your 8 year old feet deserve them.

If guy denies this picture as pant creamage, you are homosexual, or girl, is straight! And another reason for 8 year-old girls to be getting skin cancer.

I go sunbathing! Cary Grant did he looked great and died at an old age for natural causes! Jeez we were meant to be in the sun.....Playing tennis you are always prone to that possiblitly but it's not bad unless you're not used to the sun.

We were meant to have a holeless Ozone Layer too.

I found this today in a media lesson, thought I'd share.

Ignore the fact that I was looking for articles on Bliss, heh, its for a research project, its not that Im 16 and still reading it.

this topic is a hard one, but i think instead of focusing on how bad the media is and how much we have to change it, we should be focusing on poor parenting, and the psycological conditions of our children.

^Not really.. Its common knowledge that kids dont listen to their parents anyway, and the media is much more glamorous than parents..

im still not going to blame it all on the media, i think poor parenting is a major cause.

Im not blaming it ALL on the media, but if it wasnt for magazines like Sugar *shudders* then we probably wouldnt have half the trouble we do nowadays. I mean, not long ago, Sugar were being sponsored by Durex condoms for christs' sake, and this is a magazine aimed at 13 year olds. Its stupid messages like that which epitomise how crap these magazines can be.

true....

lets never fight again.

Haha, how I missed you Yellow Card..

Anyway, moral of the story is, don't buy teenage magazines. And don't watch teen dramas. And don't listen to the radio.

:)

What if we want to have a good laugh?

"jennie i slept with jennifer and im pregnant"
YOU BASTARD AFTER ALL WEVE BEEN THROUGH
WE COULD"VE SPENT ALL OF FIFTH GRADE TOGETHER
I HATE YOU
*jennie goes off and has fifth grade lesbian sex with jennifer*
to be continued.

hahahahaha

More like, don't watch TV ever, it is full of advertisements about make-up, looking perfect, and plastic surgery shows.

LOL EMO ***Z OMG.

actually funny story about that. some friends of our family have two kids. now, this family is pretty damn well off, but it's all because the parents started their own business from the ground, and just worked their a**es off to get where they are. Their youngest child, the boy, is pretty much a parents dream. smart, polite, tons of friends, active in sports, never asks for anything and is really grateful for what he gets. Their daughter, to put it bluntly, is a spoiled brat. now, her parents pay for everything, clothes food, spending money to go out with her friends, everything. Shes 17, and throws temper tantrums because her parents wont buy her $400 pairs of jeans. her parents told her that if she wanted clothes that expensive, she could get a job. Her dad offered her $12 an hour to sit in his office and answer phones. thats it. she turned it down because it was "boring". then she got a job at a clothing store in the mall and bit*hed endlessly about it, quit 2 weeks later, and continued to throw tantrums about how her parents dont buy her stuff. Same parents, treat both kids the same, one turned out to be a spoiled brat, so no, its not always the parents' fault.

haha, and yes, that first list was revolting. I found one written by a guy, and, though some girls may find this extremely offensive (and some may throw a hissy fit), even the girls have to admit, a lot of this stuff is true, although some are pretty horrible. The difference between guys minds and the minds of the air-headed fashion/teen magazine writers:
50 things guys wish girls knew......

1. If you want to cuddle after sex go buy a teddy bear.

2. Swallow. Don't start the race if you ain't gonna finish it.

3. While giving a hand job please remove all rings from your fingers, they hurt really bad.

4. Shave your sh*t. Seriously, shave it bald.

5. Remember that a little blood never hurt nobody.

6. There is no such thing as a fat, ugly, blow job.

7. If you ask us to any sort of dance that requires that we wear a tie, we expect a sexual favor in return.

8. If you used a vibrator and let us watch it might be the greatest moment of our life.

9. If you wonder why we will not eat you out it is most likely because; it stinks, its hairy, or it stinks and its hairy.

10. You masturbate and we know it. When you do it just let us watch.

11. Birth control is the best invention ever. Start poppin those bitches.

12. Just cause we call you when we are drunk does not mean that we like you. It means that we need some ass.

`13. Guys night out means guys night out. It doesn't mean that you and your friends meet us at the bar later.

14. If you wonder why your ass looks fat in those tight pants its because you have a fat ass.

15. If you are with us and you start to cry for any reason just get up and leave.

16. Don't think that we don't know that after we take you out and you order a salad to make us think you eat healthy that you go home and order pizza with your fat friends.

17. Once again, seriously shave your sh*t.

18. Just cause you get our **** one night, does not give you any right to get it the next.

19. If we drink too much, we do not need someone to hold our hair back and act like our babysitter. We have puked before and know how to handle it.

20. After we are through with you, do not expect to make us jealous by fu*king our friends. We really don't care what you do.

21. If we cheat on you and you never find out about it, then its not cheating.

22. If we cheat on you and you do find out, at least it wasn't with one of your friends.

23. Swallow(just in case you forgot #2 already).

24. We don't have a problem with watching chick flicks as long as we get in your pants after.

25. Never under any circumstance take a **** while you are around us or fart. Just thinking about it makes us sick.

26. While giving us head don't be afraid to fondle our testicles, they don't bite.

27. If you are gonna jerk us off aim properly, a nut can irritate your eye.

28. Always remember that men are the superior sex and back in the day you had to ask us if you could speak.

29. If we're about to have sex and we decline because we don't have a rubber its not because we're scared we're gonna get you pregnant, its that we're scared we're gonna catch something from your dirty skank ass.

30. If you swallow like you should, do not expect us to kiss you after. Sorry that's just the way it is.

31. I don't care if you do have a flavored condom, you just don't give a blow job with a condom on. Would you like us to eat you out with a dental damn?? I didn't think so.

32. If we're doing it doggy style there is no reason to turn around and look at us, we're focused on your ass cheeks and that slapping sound.

33. Blood stains on our bed sheets come off with cold water, so make sure you scrub them thoroughly before leaving.

34. When we go down on you to munch on your rug and we instantly start sucking on the inner thighs rather than the clit, its because your clit smells like a dead trout.

35. If you let us donkey punch you we will owe you for life.

36. Just cause we have sex with you when we are drunk does not mean that you are pretty or that we like you. It means that you were our only choice.

37. If we dance with you for more than 15 minutes at a bar we expect you to come home with us.

38. If you think that you are ugly, we probably do too.

39. Don't count on us saying we love you, its just not going to happen.

40. If for some reason we do say we love you its only because we want to have sex immediately after we say it.

41. Just cause you have our phone number doesn't mean we want you to call us. If we want to talk then we will call you.

42. If you invite us over to watch a movie it would be awesome if we watched a porn instead of a movie.

43. If you can't dance then you most likely suck in bed. So stop trying to dance and start having more sex.

44. Hmmmmm......girls in thongs.......yummmmmmmmmm

45. If you are fat the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to give great blow jobs. Sorry that's just the way it is.

46. A sure way to keep a guy around for awhile is to have anal sex with him. We can't put into words how it feels.

47. You don't have to ask our permission to make out with another chick. Just do it but make sure we are there to watch.

48. In case you didn't read #4 and #17 let me repeat...Shave your sh*t!

49. Guys don't have sex or make love, we f*ck.

50. You can impress us if you can swallow our entire load without dripping or wiping your mouth afterwards.

Jibber...you made my day

Baahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

35. If you let us donkey punch you we will owe you for life.

What is a donkey punch?
PS I think that yes you are right on all of those...Men are that shallow but it's true that we need to understand that you are that shallow:D
