Positive body image: Get it now

Rising above the influence of our plastic society is a worthwhile endeavor.  This should be taught in preschool, long before the learned guilt and snobbery of society can taint the well.  Self love and self respect are the result.

Should bonuses be paid to executives in bankrupt companies?

The creditors have not been paid and the cash flow is backward, that is after all, what bankrupt means.  The company can no longer operate as before, that is why they are asking for legal protection from creditors.  Should our corporate sponsors then about-face and reward themselves?  Hell, no!  Any sane person would not think so.  For this question to even rear its ugly head is a blasphemy; and the system exposes itself to be deeply corrupt and very arrogant.

Why many women have a negative body image

Women are taught to have negative body images and our plastic society is responsible for much of this.  Appearances are everything and most people do not look beyond the surface.  Advertising, television, and photos of thin models in glossy magazines all glamorize thin women.  Little girls look for the glamour, the heels, the nail polish, the makeup, the jewelry, and the hair.  Advertisers can tell which women are self-confident and are drawn to that image.  Does having the hair, the makeup, etc. cause a woman to feel self-confident?  You bet it does!
