Why LYB Day is so important to me

This is what inspired me to celebrate Love Your Body Day each year.  Jean Kilbourne is amazing.  I will say that this material is not rated G.  It is, however, nothing that isn't seen in any magazine you pick up in a grocery store. 
What are  your thoughts?

Winterbuzz mentions her dilemma about working for a celebrity photography agency:

Some of that fits into the "image" that is pushed on women. Then, there's Heidi Dangelmaier, who founded 3iying & Girlapproved:

She's trying to get some of the pushed ideas & images changed.

I get Winterbuzz's conflict. It's hard to want to be in such a mainstream job and go against the grain- against the grain being feminist.
