Lately, I have seen a very common trend on social media. I am not one that is very drawn to reading things like Cosmopolitan or Daily Mail, but as most Snapchat users know, they now have their own Snapchat stories that are updated every day.
So why has this caught my interest? Almost every single day the headline is something along the lines of "You won't believe what [Celebrity] was wearing" or "[Celebrity] was seen in a very revealing outfit in NYC." It grabs my attention mainly because it's hard for me to understand that paid journalists can write about a women's breasts everyday for a living. The "articles" often include minimal written work and are accompanied with 15 pictures of a female celebrity's nipples censored out of a picture.
So, friendly reminder, women have breasts. Isn't that crazy?
My roommates and I were watching Family Feud the other night and two contestants approached the buzzers in the middle of the stage. Steve Harvey asks, "Name a sexy celebrity a man might think should win an award for her big golden globes?" Her golden globes. Seriously? All of our jaws dropped.
It doesn't stop there. As I mentioned before, Cosmopolitan and Daily Mail always seem to grab my attention with their outrageous headlines. I understand that mentioning a Kardashian or Jenner is an easy way to gain an audience for an article. I constantly see articles about their family, regarding who got implants or who wore a sheer top. But my only concern is, why is this news?
For example:
I'm sick of seeing things like this and I'm sure many others can agree. Wear a bra. Don't wear a bra. Wear a low-cut shirt. Wear a t-shirt. No matter what the situation is- women have breasts. And, more importantly, women can do whatever they want with their breasts.
