I do not like the way they make girls believe they should be super thin, unable to enjoy certain foods because they do not want to be judged by society for living. Shifting slightly, da Vinci was very influential in showing off beauty in any aspect as the human figure is a beautiful piece to be marveled at. By studying the curvatures of females, he could make nearly any figure look beautiful. This is what we need to get society back to for everyone's sake.

Women were expected to have tiny waists, large hips, and often balanced ridiculous hats and wigs. Many times women today complain about how models are too skinny and how much pressure this places on women, but in the past skinny girls were ostracized for being ugly. I'm not arguing that any of this is right, I'm just saying that an artificial ideal of beauty is not unique to our time. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tkawiZiYB68/UYgcKr61sgI/AAAAAAAAFys/M5sHWfuyJJw/s1600/corset+most+miserable.jpgAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09510346031794807490noreply@blogger.com
