[quote=Anonymous]I think the whole body image travesty has been over sold. Look at all the posts here where everyone is reminded they're too frumpy to criticize X or reminded that no fifty is not the new forty. I think beauty is just like every other subjective quality, it is natural to over estimate oneself, and women do it all the time. I definitely catch myself doing it, I see other women do it. Yes, women self-deprecate and nitpick, but we all know how often that is fishing for compliments or just sets up a humblebrag. I know plenty of women who are pretty damn pleased with themselves, and I'm tired of this same old article being re-printed.[/quote]
