[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm not really sure how much you can control this if your kids are in a school social environment. Unattractive people are treated differently than attractive people, and I'm not sure how helpful it is to deny this. The reality is that attractive looks and body are almost always the primary factor in spouse selection, especially for men. No one likes to admit it, but we all know it's true. "Looking good" is an ever shifting unattainable ideal which is perpetuated by advertisers and male supremacy culture. My goal is to have my daughters be self confident in general, and not to focus specifically on appearance. [/quote]
