Vaulger Display of Fake Plastic People

I am sitting in the living room reading some news articles online while my uncle watches some tv show about fast sports car..."super cars" (according to the show) anyways a commercial was on a few seconds ago about a toddler beauty pageant.  AM i the only one who finds that utterly repulsive that girls at a young age are raised to believe the only way they are beautiful is by caking their face with make up and putting on ridiculous dresses and going on a stage to expose their "talents" on a stage in order to be told they are nothing compared to one girl who wins a crown? That has to be horrible for those girl's once they get older believing they have to try to be prettiest but in the end are nothing compared to somebody else! It is ideas like that , that are damaging girl's self-esteem  and making them feel worthless. It is not only young girls who are exposed to these pressures to be plastic and thin there are advertisements with in the media or social pressures directed tword young boys and men that make them strive to have washboard abs or be thin. There is beauty in everybody. Thin,fat,toned or whatever you are you! People shouldn't let social and media endorsed pressures diminish how they feel about themselves. Will you let yourself fall victim to this disgusting act or will you prove yourself above that and love your self and stop hating your body?
