Imagine the opposite... where your mother stresses that you are still a virgin and soon to marry. I was researching some stuff and and came across this:

I guess there's more than just one "norm."

Who's Normal??
Your mother probably always told you to be a good girl and "save yourself" or else no one would want to marry you.
Imagine the opposite... where your mother stresses that you are still a virgin and soon to marry. I was researching some stuff and and came across this:
"There are men inGuam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time. Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry!."
I guess there's more than just one "norm."

Sex Sells?
It is unfortunate that in our society sex is one of the things that sells the most. Nowadays ads that have naked women are not only targeted at men, but also they are targeted at their best girls- women.
Perhaps this is why we feels so pressured to look absolutely flawless. Yes ladies, those shoes WILL make you look like that, your legs suddenly will elongate from one meter to two and you will lose all your love handles. Thanks to those shoes all you bumps on the skin will disappear, and of course you will find the man of your dreams the first time you wear them. for more ads of this kind, go to this website
P.S
just accept who you are because they look just like us when photoshop fails..

Guerrilla Girls
I've recently come across the Guerrilla Girls website and like what they're doing. I'm adding a link to their page on our blog, and here's a little info about them:
"We're a bunch of anonymous females who take the names of dead women artists as pseudonyms and appear in public wearing gorilla masks. We have produced posters, stickers, books, printed projects, and actions that expose sexism and racism in politics, the art world, film and the culture at large. We use humor to convey information, provoke discussion, and show that feminists can be funny. We wear gorilla masks to focus on the issues rather than our personalities. Dubbing ourselves the conscience of culture, we declare ourselves feminist counterparts to the mostly male tradition of anonymous do-gooders like Robin Hood, Batman, and the Lone Ranger. Our work has been passed around the world by kindred spirits who we are proud to have as supporters. It has also appeared in The New York Times, The Nation, Bitch and Bust; on TV and radio, including NPR,, the BBC and CBC; and in countless art and feminist texts. The mystery surrounding our identities has attracted attention. We could be anyone; we are everywhere."
