It's boring
It's Boring. This was a fashion designer's reaction to the issue of whether thin models promote anorexia and should the industry change. More interested in the artistic presentation of their fabric sculptures, fashionistas are frowning delicately around the world at Madrid's ban on underweight models. I always knew the fashion industry was shallow. As thin as the paper their "beauty" mags are printed on. I stopped watching fashion sometime in my 20s. I came to realize I could never measure up enough and that it only made me feel inferior. I never had enough money for the "right" clothes, never had the requisite figure or makeup colors. I didn't have the face either. All around, I just couldn't measure up! Yet I knew I was a lovely young woman. Why should a lovely young woman feel inferior because some artists want to pretend their sculptures are about female beauty? I look forward to other cities doing as Milan has done in banning models who are underweight. I am quite certain most of these girls could put on the require 20 pounds to reach more healthy target goals.Wednesday, September 20, 2006
obligated
I should dump the blog because I really don't feel like keeping it up. I guess as an archival store it has value...Saturday, September 09, 2006
yuck
Sooooo, I have a problem with libido. Essentially, it's minimal to
nonexistant. It comes and goes of it's own whim and I have no choice.
Most of the time, it's gone. As a married woman this is a problem!
The doctor tested my hormones, the easy answer doesn't count because my
hormones are fine. No simple fix with a pill. So he's referring us to
a specialist.
Not a happy thing, nope nope. Dan doesn't want to go, because he
figures he'll just get blamed for things. I don't want to go, because
I'll have to tell her things about myself that hurt to say. I won't go
if Dan doesnt' go and co-operate either because that would be too hard.
I can't face it alone. He doesn't understand the whole thing. He won't
want to co-operate or talk to this therapist. Yet I don't think we can
solve this problem on our own. ~sigh~ It's got me quite tense today.
