Fashion+media=your next wildfire virus.
Saturday, June 20, 2009
Honest opinion be expressed, the world of Fashion is an oxymoron. In the studies of fashion, we are taught to embrace the varieties of forms, colours and sizes. There is no "She's too big- she's too small"... she just is. But take that onto the real, functioning runway, and you and I would be facing a dilemma. People of this society don't want to see women with a little extra flesh, simply because we are made to think that it is unpleasant. We have somewhat grown into the idea that that people (especially women) need to fit into a stereotyped mold, or she is not worth as much attention. Being skinny is neither good nor bad, it is just a physical state of being. Same goes with being fat. I bet you cringed at that word. The word "fat" has been used as an insult for far too long, and has evolved into something rather taboo and distasteful. I solely blame the media for such widespread diseases, because while fashion is the most influential phenomenon known to the current era, in this case, fashion is just that - a tool. That is what the media does, it identifies a mode of propaganda and proceeds to brainwash you and tell you how things should be. They set vulgar molds like prisons and every living creature has to fit into their respective cells. Why do we let square-minded people tell us what to do? I find it simply degrading to have to succumb to the lifestyles of those who obviously live in their own little deluded worlds. The last time I checked, the media wasn't the one answering my prayers, it was God, and as far as I'm concerned, God's going to love you even if you broke the weighing scale. So I say get out of the box and see the world for what it actually is.

Just A Pinch ,
I'd like to live on an island.
Where the sands are golden and the water turquoise.
Where the sun is my friend and the moon my guardian.
Where I am only with the people I love and people who love me.
Where music is the only source of oxygen.
Where I can do just about ANYTHING and nobody would give a fuck.
Where unnecessary, materialistic things are just that. unnecessary and materialistic.
Where money doesn't exist because we don't need it.
Where the air is clean and the sky always blue.
Where the only sources of light at night are from fire-flies and the stars above.
Where I have everything i want.
Where laughter never fades away.
Where illnesses are non-existent.
Where there is one race, one religion.
Where there is no heaven and hell.
Where I can sit around and have conversations with God.
Where I can sit around and have conversations with myself.
Where people are not afraid to say "I love you" and mean it ♥
Where nothing really matters.
I'm a dreamer.
So sue me.
