Aerie's unretouched campaign

I also thought about this in class today when we discussed the photoshopping. I read about this a while back when they first did it and loved it. It made me want to shop there more instead of other stores because I felt like I could be more comfortable in that store than others. Also I felt like I could actually wear those clothes and feel good about myself.
I wish more stores would do this kind of work.

Real Beauty Sketches

I thought about this video in class today when we talked about self image. when I watched it the first time I cried so be warned.
These women are asked to describe to a sketch artist their looks and how they see themselves. and then they have a stranger describe them and they hang the pictures up side by side so they see how others see themselves.
I am curious to know if men responses and outcomes would be similar to this.

Sexism goes both ways. Feminism helps both.

Someone posted this on Facebook and I thought I would share this with the class. This is some of the things that we talked about.
