my friends rock for promoting my video. i will also continue to promote my video.

This video is not only an awesome video for an awesome P4A cause it was made by one of our awesome subscribers making it TRIPLESUPERAWESOME!!

“You aren’t on our minds, and we don’t care what you think is attractive or unattractive. We aren’t trying to be beautiful for you. If we were, we’d walk around in Victoria’s Secret fashion show lingerie all the time… actually, that would be kinda fun.”

I love this video.

Click through to watch the video too, it is brilliant.

(Although an additional point needs to be made that sadly many people, particularly women, do feel pressured to dress for others instead of for themselves. People do wear make-up, and wear certain clothes, and have cosmetic surgery to fit in with the very narrow standard we’re told is “beautiful”. People also do these things because they themselves think they’re beautiful and that’s how they want their body to look.

Body mods and beauty practices aren’t the problem, the pressure for people to conform to a certain set of standards is. - Becca)

Hey, just want to say I think what you’re all so inspiring, I saw you on BBC3 and you’ve really given me more confidence to do what is comfortable for me and not just expected by other people. You guys are amazing :) xxxx

Hooray! Thank you, that is exactly why we went on the show and why we make our videos. So happy we can help you to feel more confident and comfortable, knowing that just makes it all worth while :) - Becca x

Body positivity: fight your demons

Two things I wish I’d known when I was a teenager, and that are often still hard to remember today.

People are going to have all sorts of opinions about how you look, there is nothing you can do to control this, so it’s pointless trying to.

The only person whose opinion matters about how you look is your own. Don’t rely on other people to give you worth, they won’t always be there.
