For more than a decade, NOW Foundation's Love Your Body Campaign has been calling out the fashion, cosmetics and advertising industries for promoting unrealistic images of women. The campaign encourages women and girls to celebrate their bodies and reject the narrow beauty ideals endorsed in the media.
The Let's Talk About It project, inspired by NOW Foundation's partnership in National Eating Disorder Awareness Week, is a new way for YOU to help lead a spirited discussion about body image issues.
If you're tired of being bombarded by retouched pictures telling you how women should look, if you're done with advertisers portraying women as objects to be consumed, if you're ready to talk back, then join us. Make a video telling the world why you're embracing the real you. Help us spread the word, and you might even be featured on this website.
