So recently spent a few months in the company of women around the age of 20 as I was updating my education. I was really disappointed to see how many of them have bought into the importance of the size of their derrieres, wearing waist trainers at night and loads of makeup and hair accessories. (Please note I realize women can wear whatever they want, it's their right, and they were young and frivolous, etc).

When I joked that when I was their age most girls were afraid of having a big bum they laughed and said 'well these days men like big ones!' All I could think was who cares what men want? And how disappointing that corsets have made a comeback?
Is my despair an over-reaction?
I realize young men are also pressured to have chiseled abs, etc. Maybe it's just society in general now? (rant over...)

Wow.....that is concerning.

That is actually very sad.....I don't do anything to please men (apart from my partner)...STUFF THAT.

Freaking brilliant. Tearing down a whole generation of women. Feminism right there.

I believe we are moving towards a society that looks like the capitol in the hunger games.
