Faking It Won't Make It

This one is more for the ladies, but it applies to the men as well:

Kim Kardashian. Somehow a fashion and beauty icon in our simple minded society. Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes for different types of people, I completely understand that, but just entertain this idea with me.

The Kardashian's are probably one of the most selfish families out there. They are pretty people yes, and they know it, yes. They are so focused on their appearances, they do nude photo shoots, have fashion lines, where little to no clothing, wear skin-tight clothing, have personal trainers, hair dressers, make-up artists, and probably interior designers. Granted, if I was a millionaire and had only time to waste, I might have a few of these luxuries, but that's not the point I'm making. They're privileged, yes, but their conceited as well. They will never understand what it is like to cross someone who doesn't know who they are; they will never understand what it's like to not be able to alter their appearance that they don't like.

You see, I hear a lot of young girls complain that they don't have a "thic bod" like Kim K, when she is made of 90% plastic. Her weave, her lashes, her butt (not her butt?! oh yes...), her boobs, her flat and toned stomach, her nose, and who knows, probably her ears or toes or something stupid. What about any of that is attractive?! It's more than fake. She's half doll, not a real person, an art piece. And it's sad that we can put that much emphasis on the way we look to push a woman to spend her money like this to try to "fix" her body.

And now to my point:

REAL IS BEAUTIFUL.

FAKE IS UNATTRACTIVE.

Think about it, would you rather someone be real with you in a verbal sense? Uhh yeah... So why is it okay to be fake with our bodies?

I do not shame Kim K for doing what she did, because I can't say I wouldn't if I was in the spotlight like her with that amount of money, but where does it put you in life? Are you more successful because of it? Are you wiser? Are you stronger? - No, you are weak.

So to all the girls who are struggling with their belly rolls, the number on the scale, the cellulite on your thighs, and baggy arms:

You are real, and real is beautiful.

Never forget it xx
