The advertising industry does something right for a change.

Go watch this, especially if you have little girls (Warning: could be somewhat triggery for people with eating/body image disorders).

Also This one, which actually had me close to tears.

This one really did make me cry. I hate when that happens.

It's amazing what the fashion industry has done to girls. And to BOYS, too, because a lot of those ads are targeted at them.

It's really an international tragedy that has to be stopped somehow. I don't know what it is, but I'm going to buy Dove products, even if they do plug Wal-Mart along with it (I draw the line at Wal-Mart). If Dove wanted a successful ad campaign, they've got one, at least as far as I'm concerned.

I ETA'ed a couple of more films. The third one is heartbreaking.

You've seen the Beautiful video, right? Makes me cry every time. The girl with the braces? Was me (only with ADD weirdness instead of braces). I used to have an icon of her. I should really start using it again.
