Anonymous Coward User ID: 49118739 United States 10/30/2013 03:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Excellent video. I recently saw a picture of Kate Middleton, well two pictures actually. It was from a charity event she recently attended. First picture shows her on a flight up stairs and she looks like a tired young mother (lines around eyes, mouth, skin a bit blotchy). Second picture, same event had been airbrushed and photoshopped until she looked like a supermodel. |

M1.618 User ID: 20188364 Canada 10/30/2013 10:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.upworthy.com] Quoting: geminilion A lot of women/young girls don't realize the amount of photo shopping and altering of photos there is to make the "ideal" woman. No one is perfect and women should instead be taught to embrace who they are. The obsession with youth, plastic surgery, and basic fear of looking old is unhealthy. I'm not saying don't wear make-up or try to make yourself look attractive but most women have to accept they are never going to look like a super model and are beautiful in there own way. I'm okay with my crow's feet, I've earned every single wrinkle and gray hair I have. The spirit is what what matters, transcending the flesh. Beautiful inside is beautiful outside) wmMmw |

I think she looks better the way she is. My point is if she were to be featured in an ad looking like the before pic someone would be fired. It's the expectation of beauty these days and young girls take it hook, line and sinker. ..."The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46186350 I bet at least 99% of us would choose to look healthy and beautiful! But that doesn't mean we would choose to portray ourselves as someone else. I have a cousin who photoshops all of her pics she has on-line and even on dating sites. She's an attractive woman as she is but if you were to meet her in person you would be disappointed because she doesn't resemble her pic LOL She was telling me one time that guys she met for dates weren't asking her out again after the first date. I wanted to tell her she was guilty of false advertising but I didn't have the heart to. ..."The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts.
