What can I say, I have a weakness for a guy with the shag haircut and bathetic Romanticism.

300: the secret to blockbuster success

It’s really very simple. I’ve met a number of straight men who are mystified that women would ever want to watch such a militaristic bloodbath of a movie, even suggest it for a date movie, but they’re missing a key ingredient for proper appreciation of everything this cinematic comic book has to offer:

Estrogen.

the Beautiful Women Project

The Beautiful Women Project 

cross-posted to running through rain

What causes art? In this case, it’s simple: a child’s desire for mutilation.

Do 13-year-olds really need to be saving their babysitting and paper route money for breast implants? Cheryl-Ann Webster wondered that herself, when her daughter told her that a friend was already socking away money for the boobflation job she felt would be an absolute necessity, sooner rather than later.

So Cheryl-Ann made a few synthetic boobs herself; she made The Beautiful Women Project.

To demonstrate that beautiful bodies come in all shapes and sizes, she wanted to surround young girls with sculptures of real women’s bodies…

The Beautiful Women Project is a touring art exhibition of life-sized torsos of real women aged 19-91.

Aims:

  • To challenge socially-constructed images of beauty
  • To raise awareness and open a dialogue about the link between self-worth and physical appearance
  • To be a teaching and healing tool

In the artist’s words: “Our bodies tell our life story. They are portraits of our journeys and experiences. Knowing that our body is beautiful just as it exists, is a message more people need to see and hear.”
