Anorexia Must Stop!

The inspiration for this post came from the blog Teens Can Change The World.

Girls think so much about their weight. We go on diets to get the skinny bodies. There is one "acceptable" body shape that you have to have. Why? Why are you teaching children this? Do people know what problems it causes? It leads to this:

Is that pretty? Is that healthy? Yet we encourage it! 90% of girls think that they are fat or over weight. And this:

Is this what we want girls doing? They're convinced that they aren't good good enough. And America accepts it, even encourages it! Anorexia is destroying girls bodies! Women are destroying their body's to be "sexy". They're killing themselves for beauty! It isn't healthy. And everywhere we women look, they show us we need to look that way. Models thin as skeletons strutting up and down the runway. Compare:

This is horrible and needs to be stopped! Spread the word about eating disorders!

                        STOP TELLING WOMEN AND GIRLS THIS IS GOOD!

Avengers Movie Opinions

So, last night I watched the Avengers movie for the third time! I LOVE THAT MOVIE! My advice for the Marvel fan, (like true Marvel fan, you have to be really dedicated), is to watch it multiple times. Some jokes and funny lines I missed because they were talking seriously. Hawkeye was much funnier than I remembered! I used to be disappointed with the character because he wasn't as funny as in the comics I'd say. Oh no, Joss Whedon did better with my favorite character than I thought! And Robert Downey Jr., he is perfect for the role of Iron Man! He made Iron Man my second favorite super hero. And watching The Avengers with my little sister was hilarious, she loves Thor. She would be all like SQUEE! every time there was a scene with him. As for Dr. Bruce Banner, I soo liked Mark Ruffalo better than Edward Norton. The Hulk in The Avengers face actually look a lot like Ruffalo's! As for our lovable Captain America, he sure knows how to give orders! Hulk smash, oh yeah! That's an order! Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, hmmm, none of her lines jump out at me, but all of her fight scenes I was on the edge of my seat. Loki, I don't know, I like him. I guess I have a thing for bad guys. Snape, Loki, Belatrix Lestrange. I love this movie and will continue to watch it again and again. I think Disney is doing great with Marvel and can't wait for Avengers 2! (Which is coming out in 2015 to anyone who is curious!) Avengers, assemble once more!
