My personal note:
Some people commented on the video that they feel as though it is talking down to or shaming naturally thin girls. I can see where they feel that way. I think the greater understanding is that when women push back at the media, it is often times mis-interpreted as saying that thin girls are not as good. The push back is not at our fellow women who are a size two, but the size two pedestal of perfection that we are bombarded with on a daily basis. So, we love our fellow thin girls, but the easiest way to say that we are not going to play by the media and fashion world's ways is to resist the "ideal" that they have set before us, which happens to be a size two.
