A friend sent this to me & I thought it appropriate in light of the
recent discussion.

PS I have clothes that range in size from 10-16, Small, Medium, Large &

TO ALL THE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN I KNOW
Did you know that it's Beautiful Woman Month?
Well it is, and that means you and me.
Did you know that if shop mannequins were real women they'd be too thin
to
menstruate?
There are 3 billion women who don't look like supermodels and only eight
who
do.
Marilyn Monroe wore a size 14.
If Barbie were a real woman, she'd have to walk on all fours due to her
proportions.
The average woman weighs 144 lbs and wears between a 9-14.
One out of every four college aged women has an eating disorder.
The models in the magazines are airbrushed - not perfect! A psychological
study in 1995 found that three minutes spent looking at a fashion
magazine
caused 70% of women to feel depressed, guilty, and shameful. Models
twenty
years ago weighed 8% less than the average woman. Today they weigh 23%
less.
Beauty of a Woman -
The beauty of a woman is not in
The clothes she wears
The figure she carries
Or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman
Must be seen from her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart,
The place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman
Is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman
Is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives,
The passion that she shows,
The beauty of a woman
With passing years - only grows.
An English professor wrote the words, "Woman without her man is nothing,"
on
the blackboard and directed the students to punctuate it correctly. The
men
wrote "Woman, without her man, is nothing."
The women wrote "Woman! Without her, man is nothing."
The Images of Mother -
4 YEARS OF AGE ~ My Mommy can do anything!
8 YEARS OF AGE ~ My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!
12 YEARS OF AGE ~ My Mother doesn't really know quite everything.
14 YEARS OF AGE ~Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either.
16 YEARS OF AGE ~ Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned.
18 YEARS OF AGE ~ That old woman? She's way out of date!
25 YEARS OF AGE ~ Well, she might know a little bit about it.
35 YEARS OF AGE ~ Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.
45 YEARS OF AGE ~ Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?
65 YEARS OF AGE ~ Wish I could talk it over with Mom.
