Description
In this episode of Wine & Shine, we delve into the realm of the mainstream media to uncover why women have primarily negative self-perceptions. We’ll discuss why it’s important to let go of these perceptions and love yourself as you are despite constant media bombardment, while still consciously making choices toward self-improvement. Quotes: “People definitely thought we were taking engagement photos, and I support that.” - Nina “How come we can’t see these positive sides of ourselves [and] it takes someone else to point out something that can be super-beautiful?” - Nina “The issue I have in the mainstream media is that what is and is not attractive is being determined by a bunch of old, white men.” - Liz “People don’t buy products, they buy what that product will make them become.” - Liz “How can we begin a shift of having women believe in these ideals sooner so that we can make a shift as a society?” - Nina “I do think it’s really important for women to support each other, because if we don’t, who will?” - Liz We’ll Discuss: Wine of the Day: 2014 Charles Smith - “Eve” Chardonnay Miss Representation Pro’s and cons: the pageantry of competitive beauty Men are the decision makers in the media, and why that’s a problem The interpretation gap, and supporting retailers you don’t support Body-neutral retailers Youth-targeted and gender-biased media Why we don’t take curvy women seriously The fine line between self-improvement and self-deprecation Your “best” body is up to you Comparing ourselves, positive or negative, is a dangerous game “Pretty is as pretty does.” - Grandma Belden The pressure is real for men, too Links: iTunes: https://bit.ly/wineandshine Facebook: Wine & Shine Podcast Instagram: @wineandshinepodcast Vivino: https://www.vivino.com/users/wineandshinepodcast
