The Realities of What You See Online

So we all know about that one magazine that just came out, of that one famous girl with a big butt  showing off her well, BIG BUTT {we're trying not to give her any more attention than she is already getting}. However, we hate to break it to you but that image was Photoshopped. What is Photoshopping you might be wondering?

verb
alter (a photographic image) digitally using Photoshop image-editing software.

The key word is sticking right out: alter.

Nobody is perfect, however, a long time ago, someone decided that perfection should be shown to the world and it should be done through magazines and images of pretty popular people to make you hate them even more {just kidding...but, we all know you get a wee bit jealous}. We want to help you not have a jealous bone in your body because we are certain that most celebrities look at their altered images and wish they looked like that in real life {including that one famous girl with a big butt}. It is very impractical to compare yourself to a Photoshopped image. It is not real. I mean talk about an unfair fight! Now, don't get us wrong, there is nothing wrong with altering an image for fun or if it makes you like your photo a little bit more. The problem is the feelings it evokes in people who believe that you really look like that. So, the lesson is to absorb that not everyone you see online or in the magazines of someone's body/face are real. As long as you digest that then we can start to break the low self-esteem bondage many people (women and men) have after seeing "perfect" celebrity images.
