Evolution

Perhaps you've already seen this YouTube clip from Dove floating around, but a good reminder that things aren't always what they appear to be.
A poignant message for young ladies, too. Reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut's commencement speech in 1997 when he said, "Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you feel ugly."
Here's why.

Apparently I am having a grammar issue without Denise's excuses. I should have said, "It does make ME look at the advertising in a whole new light."

This is a great video clip. I sometimes worry about Sydney growing up in a world obsessed with looks.
