I very much liked that each kind of beauty was as desirable as the other - and all very different, of course. It seemed one could then let go of the dewy freshness, having enjoyed that a time, and look forward then embrace the next stage of gorgeousness.spring warrenhttp://thequarteracrefarm.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-488757155668840939.post-13439301317347522292011-05-11T09:01:21.050-07:002011-05-11T09:01:21.050-07:00As a women who's age is over the speed limit, ...As a women who's age is over the speed limit, I dare Tara Banks to do an America's Next Top Model with women over 50. Real, unaltered women. I am having a tough time excepting these wrinkles I've earned through years of living. AND MEN, if you don't want to appreciate WOMEN, Real women with curves and lines, just remember we all age in our own way.

There are men out there who prefer curvy, ample, natural women... who appreciate the true female form(s). Those are the keepers.<br />It's the fashion magazines that poison our minds, and all the companies aiming to sell us stuff via our insecurities - that THEY planted in our minds!<br />Funny you mention "More." I gave up my subscription when I realized that the ENTIRE magazine was all about NOT accepting yourself, and pouring all this energy into looking younger and thinner. And... you just reminded me that I intended to write about that, and never got around to it.
