i will honestly say that i'm not proud of the women's movement in this country. there's little to no help for women and children, day care is barely regulated and expensive, insurance as well, birth control can be very expensive if you don't have insurance, the media's portrayal of womens' bodies and behaviour is pathetic (see runway models, desperate housewives).
the media pushing women to be thin is ridiculous and i already worry about my infant daughter. women are suckers and competitive, so they try to emulate what they see. i'm all about health and being in good shape for my man but we have dinner together every night, we like to have a drink now and then and live life - so i'm not rail-thin. starving yourself to look like victoria beckham is for idiots, IMO.
plus all these thin women in the media can't hold onto a man for more than a few years and end up looking washed-up at 40.
