This is the perfect example of how society dictates what is and isn't acceptable for women. Superstar Kim Kardashian has been all over the tabloids for her weight gain due to pregnancy. She's pregnant! Of course she's going to gain weight. This tabloid even takes it a step further in suggesting that being overweight is a character defect. The media tries to make Kardashian feel ashamed of her weight, the same way it tries to shame the rest of America. The sooner we realize this fact, the sooner we can seek change and accept each other as we are.

    I am a first year student at FGCU studying Social Work. I have a passion for helping people, and I too have struggled with the unrealistic expectations of beauty in society. I hope that through this blog, people will be able to find peace with themselves and with society.
