I like it when a girl has a body

That reminds me. I know how many people complain about what they have (physically) but I think it's getting to a point where the media is influencing what natural beauty actually is. Skinny and boney all over isn't exactly attractive to everyone and over sized isn't either. It just makes me wonder what the right size is.

I don't see how the media influences natural beauty when everyone is well aware the amount of prep/makeup that goes into it all. Influence what people want to look like? Sure... but I wouldn't say the media has much influence on 'natural' beauty since it rarely, if ever, actually shows people in their natural state.

At the end of the day, nothing is attractive to everyone, however given the constant obesity concerns for younger generations then I'm really not against the media dictating that skinny is sexy. I don't personally go for the overly skinny look but I'd take it over obese any day.

I kind of think the media's effect on our preferences is exaggerated to be honest, what I find attractive is definitely not based on what's in the media.

Maybe some kids of around 13 might be influenced to some extent, but I don't think it's as much of a cultural phenomenon as it's made out to be.

There's no "right" size to be, be whatever size you want (as long as it's healthy, I guess).
