SPARK bloggers Julia, Kaye, Crystal, and Seila talk about #KeepItReal, photo editing, body image, and more! Check ‘em out!
Julia: “We’re not saying it’s bad to have a certain body type. That’s what the media’s saying.”
Kaye: “We know you’re not really selling us magazines. You’re selling us insecurity.”
Crystal: “Where does that leave queer people, fat people, people of color, people with disabilities?”
Seila: “Cosmo, Seventeen, you gotta shape up–and not in the way that you use it usually, I mean by ethical and journalistic standards you should shape up.”
SPARK is a girl-fueled activist movement to demand an end to the sexualization of women and girls in media. We're collaborating with hundreds of girls 13-22 and more than 60 national organizations to reject the commodified, sexualized images of girls in media and support the development of girls' healthy sexuality and self-esteem.
