The Body Image Project

by Jess McCabe // 7 January 2010, 23:41

As a brief follow-on from Pippa's post on resolving not to resolve to pursue thinness, The Body Image Project looks like a good resource.

The US site posts videos of people - most women - talking about positive body image and how they've overcome negative feelings about their bodies.

Click over to Feministing for a transcript of this video. All the videos are available to watch here (although not with transcripts).

It's unfortunate (and probably not something Feministing can't easily do something about) that the advert I can see below that entry is "How to get ripped in 4 weeks".

The project looks like a great idea :)
