On social media, you might see “BM girls”. They have small waists(腰) and long, thin legs. They wear Brandy Melville—an Italian brand of small-sized clothes.
Many teenagers want to look like Barbie girls. Some even try to lose weight in unhealthy ways just to look like them.
“People see models wear those clothes and they feel they also need to be like them to follow the fashion trend,” Risa said. When girls can’t fit into smaller sizes, they feel they are too fat.
“Some fashion trends are sending the wrong messages to young girls,” said nutritionist Wu Ping. “Girls should learn to understand that everyone has different body shapes. They should care about their health over everything else.”
According to Psychology Today, accepting(接受) how you look can make you happier. How can we do this? Here are some tips:
Follow body-positive people on social media. They’ll show you that there’s not only one way to be beautiful.
Practise thanking your body. Your body keeps you alive, carries you every day, and protects you in many ways. Try to be thankful.
Keep a healthy lifestyle. Loving your body doesn’t mean that you can’t work towards health goals. However, when you work towards those goals with love for yourself, you will find it easier to reach them.
