10 Lies Targeting Young Women

This is another post for the ladies, particularly teenage girls.  I was going to expand on each point, but I think each one says it all. You're less-than if you don't have a boyfriend You can't be completely happy without a boyfriend It's more important to be skinny than to be healthy Beauty is pain Appearing in public without makeup is social suicide You won't be liked unless you dress in a way that puts your body on display You won't be an influence on the world until you do all the same things that men do Your boyfriend will like you better if you loose five pounds You're not worthy of the title "beautiful" unless you look like all those edited, retouched pictures in the magazines What everyone's saying about you is what defines you. Always know that these things are absolutely false.  They have no validity.  If you feel like one of them is true, write it down on a piece of paper, and rip it up!

Fun for the Fourth
