But maybe if we stop filtering ourselves and fooling each other and show what humans really look like then we won’t make it so hard for each other to accept ourselves.Resistance bands are multi-use fitness tools that make it possible (and so easy) to get in a great workout or stretch anywhere - even when you're stuck at home. I stopped letting the way I look control my life and I think that’s a decision we can all make. I didn’t wear shorts, I hid my leg away as much as I could but then I realised I had fought so hard for a life I wasn’t truly living. I lost my leg to cancer when I was a kid and I spent years wanting to change my body. She is also if the opinion that it is possible to love your body and want to change it at the same time, “I think it boils down to what we let control us.

#bodyimage #insecure #foryou ♬ THICK AS THIEVES – Jack & Charly I just don’t think I’m going to get to my deathbed and really wish I had that surgery to manipulate my body.” Below you will find the video in question #duet with this is why we have body image issues. Jess gives an example of how trends effect people: “I read an article once about a plastic surgeon who has women bringing in the Snapchat-filtered version of themselves and saying, ‘I want to look like this after my surgery’ – I just find that so heartbreaking that our world is so filtered and manipulated that we are comparing ourselves with our own filtered version. I know for sure that I don’t want my niece growing up in a world where thinks her worth is in the way she looks and that she has to keep up with ‘beauty trends.'”Īnother problem Jess sees is that beauty standards change, like fashion trends: “In the 90’s the trend was to be as skinny as possible, then we went through an athletic aesthetic and now it’s the Kardashian booty – if we are constantly manipulating our bodies to meet these ‘trends’ then we will never be happy in our own skin.” We also have spend so much time fighting for women to have equality, to be in the workforce but yet we are still pushing this message onto us that there is a certain way we should look and that being ‘beautiful’ (whatever trend that looks like at the time) is what’s important when that’s not true. Only 8% of a brand message makes its way to our conscious brand, the rest we rework in our subconscious so things are affecting us more than we realise. To those who have a simple answer of suggesting just choose not to compare, the woman has this to say: “It’s much more complex than that. By manipulating people and images to fit an ideal we are only putting unnecessary pressure on others.” If we are seeing something that doesn’t actually exist in real like then we are comparing ourselves to a beauty standard that doesn’t even exist. We then judge ourselves based on that comparison. Jess comments more on what is the big deal of making models look different for photos: “We compare ourselves all day to what we see online, on social media and in magazines, billboards and on TV. But, I do think models have an opportunity to take responsibility and put their foot down on what they are and aren’t willing to do with their body.” She also adds, “I think some people will push back but having modelled a lot myself I can see how easy it is to get caught up in the shoot on the day and also not wanting to push back on the brand or company that hired you. We asked if she thinks that people behind the photoshoots know how damaging their actions could be and the woman is convinced the answer is yes. It’s a public secret that models don’t look exactly the same in real life as they do in photos, but those images are everywhere and you can’t help but start thinking that this is what you’re supposed to look like, especially when they are so realistic.īored Panda reached out to Jess and she shared a little bit more of her thoughts about the topic. She found that 91 percent of women are unhappy with their bodies.Īnd she thinks that what contributes to that is bodies women see in photos and not realizing they are fake and don’t represent real life. Actually, in another of her videos, she shares some statistics that shocked her. But she understands that it’s not the case for everyone.
