However, I am so glad that those two sentences made it's mark in this thread. Anymore elaboration and I couldn't follow you.........teacher.

The point was that everyone has a source of self-loathing; being female shouldn't be an excuse for being self- conscious more than any other excuse.
From Pyschology Today:
Quote:
A negative body image develops over the course of your life, so changing it can take time and effort. Suggestions for improving your body image include:
* Reflect on your experiences and try to unravel the development of your body image from childhood.
* Talk about feelings and experiences with other women who have similar concerns.
* Make a pact with yourself to treat your body with respect, which includes giving it enough food and rest.
* Give yourself a break from women’s magazines and the mass media for a while.
* Try some form of physical activity purely for the fun of it, not as a means of weight loss.
* Stop weighing yourself.
* Change your goal from weight loss to improving your health.
* Get informed by reading up on body image issues.
