If you didn't already know I am a -huge- supporter of women rights. Obviously we don't have it as women did 100 years ago, or even 50, but we still are trying to achieve "equality" with men.

True, we have all the legal rights men do, but women still get raped ten times more than men do, we are harassed because of our bodies, we are expected to be the size of super models (so we either have to starve ourselves, crash diet for the rest of our lives, or throwing up every ounce we eat).

We are also expected to be perfectly shaped, our breasts must fill a "D" cup or more, our cheek bones must be high and well shaped, our hips must be well rounded as well as our bottoms, and we must have an hourglass figure and fit into a size 4 jeans and small shirt. Not to mention we must have flawless skin, almond eyes, and our lips must be plump, but not to the point where we are constantly puckering.

Well guess what, society; these women are fake. That’s right. The women you see on the front of magazines have pounds of make up on, have been starving themselves for months or crash dieting, and have had plastic surgery or some kind of cosmetic surgery to enhance their body or face, and even after all this they are still being modified with computer to make them, look flawless. You want proof? Here's a perfect example of what women have to do to get their face on a billboard.

This is what we are biasing ourselves on.

It’s said that 8 women will have the body of super models, 3 billion women will not. Personally, your body is beautiful no matter what shape or size you are.

Don’t modify your perfect body!

Small breasts are just as beautiful as large ones, low cheek bones are just as sexy as high ones, triangular hips are just as striking as rounded ones, and most importantly this body by far more appealing than this body.

Now tell me, why must you conform to what society wants you to be? Why would you want to give up so much to look like what others want you to? You should look how you want to, you should be the woman you want to be, and you should never look in the mirror and be able to say “I wish I was different” because I wish you would stay the same.

Women are beautiful, in every shape size and color; no matter what.


The reason I’m telling you this is because I want to start a zine about women, their rights, their struggles, and the pressure the media puts on them. Please if you are interested send me a note or e-mail. If I get enough people participating in making the zine I will be uploading each issue that we “publish” to deviantart. If you care about women’s rights please help, you don’t have to be a woman to participate!

The women of the world need your help, and I need your ideas to help them.

Thank you.
