Blogueras: Latina Body Image

 

     When I heard these two latina women whom were interviewed in the blog I could hear so much disapproval of how society view women in general. Patricia Valoy wrote about how latina's are discriminated by her body hair. This bloguera was in a situation where she wasn't even aware she  had any hair on her face  and so much n her arms until she had to meticulously look at her herself. Valoy hadn't even known she had hair on her face until after the fact people pointed it in out in preparation for her wedding to someone for Egypt. To hear the blog, I could feel the astonishment these  two women felt when others pointed out there flaws that they didn't even know they had. The second bloguera Kassandra Pena expresses her concern about a new trend of women in general not only Latinas, this trend of the thigh gap. Pena explains how models and society in general promote this new trend and cause women to obsess with this look. Body shaming is not ok and its being done between women, and we should learn to support each other instead of criticizing which can lead to low self esteem.
