		<description>Sorry, sweety, I do think you're being a bit oversensitive, but if you are like me it just comes naturally!  I think that this is image is mildy humorous...cute maybe?  The first thing that comes to mind are positive thoughts of a woman actually enjoying her own body, absorbing in her own sumptuousness!  It is not the mirror that is causing the beautiful reflexion, but the woman's own mind and heart.  But, then I kept thinking...if the woman really enjoyed her body you would see the image of a "fuller" woman in the reflection and perhaps even with a smile or coy grin.  I'm still optimistic, however, that she isn't trying to imagine her body conformed to what society demands of her, instead, maybe she is imagining herself a year from now after she starts a new way of life that treats her body with respect by doing HEALTHY exercise and having a HEALTHY diet (not just some fad diet).  Maybe she is giving thought to taking more care of herself and throwing the TV out the window.  Afterall the reflected woman is not anorexic...she looks to be in good shape to me... not freakishly skinny.   What really bugs me is the title... it takes any creativity away from the image.  It turns the image into a cheap commentary.  I would forward this image... only without the ridiculous "Check out the new mirror I’m selling - taking orders now!"  It leaves more to the imagination, if you will.   You can take away alot more from the image without the lame sales gimmick  

On another note, i'm kind of tired of the epidemic...to put it mildly...of obesity in the US.  I'm not encouraging anorexia... but could we please not encourage either extreme with a pitifull line like "socially acceptable body."   Obesity should NOT be socially acceptable and if you haven't noticed....IT IS!!!   Fat people are everywhere! Being obese is a choice afterall...its not like having a long nose or protruding chin or something like that, that one is born with.  Facial variations, deformities, disporportions, etc, are things one should accept.  I don't think obesity is something anyone should accept.... I feel silly pointing this out, but obesity is the cause of hundreds of diseases and illnesses.  All of which could be avoided.  So, instead of getting all sensitive over the fat lady in the image, perhaps we should step away from the twinkies and turn off the tele.  Sorry to go on and on like that, if you have medical condition, obviously , that is an exception to the point that I'm trying to make.  I'm just tired of people who defend poor behavior (OVEREATING) which is just as dangerous and far more prevelant ( at least in the US) than anorexia or bulemia. Look, we all have our faults, inside and out, but I think we should all encourage one another to be the best we can (reasonably, of course) instead of making excuses for eachother or feeling sad for ourselves.   


Thanks for listing to me rant!  And thanks for the website!  Hope I didn't tick off too many people...I'm just a natural pouncer too :-)</description>
