Body Essay Project

firstnamekate's Body Essay Project really strikes home with me.  I think it really illustrates some important aspects of body image and standards for women. I feel inspired and I am actually considering doing a project very similarly to it.  The main reason for these kinds of projects are to not only raise awareness, but also comfort others who are in a similar position.
Another important point I am making in posting this is that often women's bodies are sexualized.  I think it is important for people to see bodies that are not in a sexual context, because women are more than just bodies.
