Explain Why Girls Should Not Be Judged On Body Image

Have you ever stood in front of the mirror and not like what you see? 67% of girls between 15-18 years old struggle with their body image. Have you ever wanted to change something? 48% of girls don’t like the way they look. Have you ever wanted to be someone else? 50% of girls wish they were someone else everyday. As a 15-year-old girl, I know what it is like to have to meet “society” standards. Every move you make, people are watching you and judging you. Every decision you make, people are waiting to put you down. In my opinion girls should not be judged on their physical appearance, what they eat, or what they wear.

When you first see a girl, what do you notice? You notice what she looks like. The first thing that pops into a guy’s head when they first see a girl is if she is attractive or not. In my opinion this is not ok. A girl should not be completely judged on the way they look. In society, we see these gorgeous models with the perfect skin, the perfect makeup, the perfect body, the perfect hair, etc.

They’re unstable. Or when you see a girl wearing very tight clothing, you think she is provocative. A girl should be allowed to wear what ever they want and not be afraid to be judge on their style. We should be able to walk outside our house with anything on and be able not to get weird looks walking down the street. Everyone should be allowed to express how he or she feels. Most girls our age express themselves with their clothes. Waking up every morning and deciding on what to wear is hard. What you wear tends to have an impact on what people think of you. In society, its seems you cant wear the same clothes twice in the same week, or you can only wear sweatpants once or on Wednesday you have to wear pink. All of these rules have an impact on what we think about. We should be allowed to express how we feel and dress the way we want and not get looked at
